The hyprocacy sometimes just cracks me up. A weight drained Nate, probably at 50%, beat Funeka, but here it gets spun as "Nate struggled with a nobody even with a weight advantage". Funeka then smashes everyone's hero Guzman, and now Funeka is Godzilla around here. But he was a bum and a nobody when Nate fought him.
Anyways, so IF this fight were to somehow get made, and IF Nate were to win it, whats the excuse?
1. Floyd didnt get "up" for the fight
2. Floyd was distracted by the Pac lawsuit
3. The internet forum posters, most of who dont support the sport by buying ppv anyways, but instead make 1834 threads looking for free streams dont like him anymore
4. Floyd was overrated
5. (insert new excuse here)
And on a side note to those who can objectively debate an issue, who (realistically) between 140 and 147 would make a better fight then Nate right now? I said "realistically". That means you take shane, berto, top rank fighters, and showtime fighters out of the equation. I think that leaves Nate, Paulie, and maybe Cintron or Quintana (neither of whom are at 147)
And if you can justify Pac vs Clottey (Ben Tackie 2.0), then you can justify this matchup.
That's a good one.

Why do you want to see this fight? What are Nate's advantages that could screw Pbf up?

Funeka wasn't a nobody, but at the same time, hardly anyone on here had seen him fight, so it's not surprising that he wasn't rated that highly. Funeka dominating Guzman makes Nate's earlier victory look a lot better. That's just the way it goes sometimes.
I personally would pick Clottey to beat Campbell. So would most people on here, I'd imagine. So I think that he's a better opponent for a WW fight. Besides, Pac-Clottey has gotten a lot of criticism too.
I think Cintron would be the hardest puncher Floyd has ever faced and he's also the 2nd biggest guy Floyd has ever faced. I see that as a good fight, given the alternatives. Following the JMM fight, a lot of us don't want to see Floyd fight yet another smaller opponent who is has zero wins at either WW or JWW.
It seems as if you think that people have something personal against Nate Campbell. Maybe there are some people like that on here, but the vast majority of criticism for this matchup is not motivated by a dislike for Nate.
I think that is correct. justifying this fight is ridiculous. It's only justifiable IMO if you are direclty connected to nate w/c onepunch is.
