That was a bit surprising. Funeka just dominated a very talented, tough fighter with a jab and right hand. It's kind of sick that a lightweight title fight was just won by a 6 foot, 152 pound fighter, but that's a different story altogether.
This fight goes to show that even undefeated, rather dominant fighters can be humbled if they fight the best and take on real challenges. There is almost always someone out there bigger and badder than you are. Guzman just found that out the hard way.
I gotta give Funeka some love though. The guy has a great jab, good stamina and a lot more skill than he gets credit for. Too bad he got robbed tonight. I thought the Campbell fight was close enough to reasonably see the fight for Campbell, but this decision was awful, plain and simple.
