    Two questions about Nate Campbell

    First of all, how the heck did he become Bradley's WBO mandatory? His previous fight was against Funeka at 135.

    Secondly, will he even perform that well at 140? Bradley was easily beating him in their 3 round fight, and he's only getting older. A near one year layoff isn't going to help him out against Ortiz either.

      When a past titlist moves up in weight, h often gets granted instant mando status from the organization whose belt he held at his previous weight.

      I don't see Ortiz dominating the fight. It's winnable for either guy. Nate is a hungry fighter. He doesn't do anything particularly great, but he's a well rounded guy. I think he's tougher than Ortiz. I really had no problem with Ortiz stopping vs Marcos, but the **** he said after the fact made me question his guts. I think Nate can beat him if he doesn't get KO'd early.

            anyone else but campbell. I don't bet on that guy no more. he's way too inconsistent.

              So he doesn't have to own the belt when he moves up? Alright, I see now.

              As for the winner of Ortiz-Campbell, I think this will be another case of a young, hungry fighter using an older fighter to make a name for himself.
