113-113 was the right score
I was really unimpressed with both fighters.

I had it 8-4 for Funeka. Theres no way Nate Campbell won more than 5 rounds imo. 2 of those rounds were the knockdown rounds and 3 other ones are pick em. Even the rounds Nate won, those were not clear cut wins. Anyways just because you knock a guy down dosent mean you should win the fight.

Campbell edged it out. He got the 2 knockdowns and was able to land a little more, Funeka was more active, but didn't land as much as Nate (I was there live as well). The Cintron decision was a trillion times worse.

LOL @ people leaving the Arena during 6th round. People were chanting "Let's go Panthers, Let's Go!!" LOL

Highlight of the night IMO was the KO by the Puerto Rican Cruserweight (can't recall his name) that was on one of the undercards. Kinda a ****ty card.

Francisco Palacios. He's a badass.

without the knockdowns, yeah, Funeka wins it.

[Silencers]

I had it 6-6 in rounds but Campbell wins the fight because of those knockdowns, 114-112 for me. They both fought their hearts out.

[QUOTE=BennyST;4757435]You just disagree with it because Campbell beat the bollocks out of Diaz.


I'm glad sombody else sees through these pathetic agendas.

[MELLY-MEL...]

here we go again..........how can volume punching win a fight if your outlanded, and knocked down 2x?

[Texanballer]

In case you didn't know 8-4 with two knockdowns is a draw. Funeka won a lot of rounds, but he was dropped twice and it was a close fight that could've gone either way. It should have been a draw but Nate winning the fight is in no way a robbery.

8-4=116-112. Take away 2 points from knockdowns=114-112. Not a draw.

It's funny the one who are insisting that Funeka won here are Mexicans. That's why Mexicans are getting bad Karma because of this ****** fans who disses every fighters like Williams, Pacquiao, Mosley, Darchinyan and Campbell who destroyed all the Mexicans

Just because Juan Diaz got exposed by an old man, they turned their hate on Campbell. They should pray that Diaz could avenge his loss, not continuing his career with a humiliation loss against Campbell.

Nate Campbell isnt a lightweight. This fight cant happen because of his inability to make weight. Juan Diaz has nothing to be ashamed of. Campbell is a tough guy, he had an off night and loss, no big deal. That loss has lead to him a new promotional contract and millions of dollars to be made. For Nate Campbell, he declared Bankruptcy and just lost all of his belts. His career as a possible big name fighter is over.

You just disagree with it because Campbell beat the bollocks out of Diaz.

Anyway, I also felt that Campbell just pulled it out. As in every fight in which there is a lot of body punching, and very good body punching, most of it goes completely ignored. Campbell did some really solid body punching throughout the fight and took some rounds, apart from the obvious ones, because of it.

I thought he just sc****d it out. One thing I was quite surprised at though was Campbell's lack of conditioning. He is usually in really top shape and can go for the full twelve damn hard. It seemed as though maybe the weight took it out of him or maybe his camp didn't go as good as it could have. I don't know, but Funeka landed some solid body shots of his own which could have contributed to it.

Anyway, I think Funeka has a very good future ahead of him. It was probably a little too early to go up against someone as seasoned as Nate, who is also fighting as good as he ever has, but he will be champion at lightweight in the future and may stay that way for some time. Anyone that is six foot one and can box, but also has very good power, would be a big handful for any lightweight. He's got a bright future ahead for himself.

I was about to post the same thing. It seems that everyone that feels this fight was a robbery is bitter about Nate beating the brakes off of Juan Diaz.
