    It sure as hell seem like it! I mean come on...where is all of the hate is coming from...He just beat a very good fighter in Diaz...Now people want to question his ability? Whats up with that? I can honestly say that some people are just butthurt that Campbell has beat Diaz and now they dont want to give props...They just rather make excuses and downplay Campbell's victory.

    For all of the people who are calling Campbell overrated need to rethink their opinions...If thats the case..what does that make Diaz? Some people need to really think before they speak!

      Come on man...What does that have to do with anything? Are you that shallow?

        Oh wait, he didn't.

        He's pretty good though.
        In all fairness Hlatshwayo moved up in weight immediately after.

            Many people feel the need to hold on to their perceptions (the Pedan fight) no matter how much a fighter has proved. Nate beat the guy many thought to be the best 135 fighter in the world and just outside the p4p top 10 at the time he fought Campbell.

            Top that off with his proven willingness to fight anybody, anytime, and I don't see much not to like as a fighter. Bottom line is Nate is one of the best fighters in the world today. The only thing that can change that is losing.

              Nate Cambell gets it for me for learning how to box at what? 26? 28? then going pro and winning A world title, never mind 3 titles against a gen boxing icon in Juan Diaz.

                LUCKY win??? Ummm go watch the fight again there was nothing "lucky" about that win. He handed Diazs' ass to him when Diaz was running through EVERYONE. And he beat Diaz at his own game. Campbell will give ANYONE trouble at 135.. He's a big 135lber that can box if he has to and can brawl if he has to.

                  I agree..We need more champs like that..No doubt about it!

                  To touch up on the Pedan fight...It was more of Nate being a DAMN fool for letting him get a clean, flush shot on him like that...but still..I dont see why that even is being brought up because that was years ago and people do tend to get better as the years go by. So if thats the reason are still not giving him his due, then those so-called fans need to look up the true meaning of being a boxing fan instead of a fan of one fighter.

                    I promise you this homie...You're not going to get a straight up logical answer from that ****bag! He's very scorned about Diaz losing...thats what I've been asking him for the longest...How was that a lucky victory for Campbell when Campbell beat Diaz at his own game?...He still hasnt given his opinion on it yet....He would rather type pointless bull**** like he just posted.

                    I tell you some fans are just PATHETIC!

                      Because he's a cool guy, he keeps it real. He is pretty entertaining to watch, is willing to fight all the top guys. Why do people hate on Nate Campbell?
