^^Looks like Angulo is now fighting Cosme Rivera. He's kind of a bum, however he has power he knocked down Andre Berto and Julio, so hopefully it will be somewhat entertaining. Still sucks about mayorga.

And I have a feeling nate campbell is going to lose to Ali Funeka!

Cosme's already a small WW I could only imagine how small he's gonna look against Angulo at LMW. Cosme would have had a much better chance to beat Berto if they hadn't completely unwrapped and removed Berto's glove in between rounds while he was wobbling around and gave him a good amount of time to recover. He'll probably get killed by Angulo but he ain't no bum.

.. and I got the same feeling about Campbell/Funeka. It's a shame a fight this important and dope isn't getting much respect.

Did you guys see? Campbell came in overweight. 3 pounds over the 135 limit. He has been stripped of his titles. The fight is still on. If Ali Funeka wins, he has both belts. If Campbell wins, at best he will only be the #1 contender and the titles are vacant.

Hella ironic considering how much shit nate was talking about Guzman who, just like campbell, was 3 pounds over the limit. Karma.

I'm seriously picking Ali Funeka to win this, I think nate is drained trying to lose the extra weight. I smell a KO in the upset.

Nate isn't that good, I think he will lose as well.
His claim to fame is beating baby bull, but prior to that was getting KO'd by Peden twice. Once during the process of show boating. Haha...

I don't see any betting lines yet. Cintron is almost a 2 - 1 dog, which is a little surprising.

^^yeah I'm not sure who's going to win...I want kermit to win but I just don't know about him anymore. Maybe he got a confidence boost after the recent margarito drama.

Damn! I felt bad for Campbell with his money issues and not getting any big fights since he beat Diaz, but if he's going to pull this I can't root for the guy.

Campbell favored.

Campbell -144
Funeka +134

Weight issues can go either way sometimes. Funeka could be drained from making weight and Campbell will come in heavier. Diego vs Jose Luis rematch.

Money is hitting Cintron, bringing the line down.

Good night of fights tonight if anyone's watching. Glen Johnson is fighting Daniel Judah on ESPN 2 then right after on Showtime Adamek defends his CW straps against Johnathon Banks and Giovanni Lorenzo fights Miranda in an eliminator bout. Should be good shit.

EDIT: FNF is starting right now if anyone's interested.

Watched as well. Yeah, that second fight was nice. And Johnson took care of business as expected.

But that Adamek KO was brutal and came out of nowhere! He was losing early then started gaining control and then he snuck a brutal cross in square with Banks chin. I give Banks credit though, he was landing some huge shots. Most guys would've dropped but apparently Adamek has a granite chin.

Banks was droolin like Byrd in 2-0-Sixx sig.

lol yeah he did. Adamek hits hard, no question. But he seems pretty simple to me and he did lose to Chad Dawson back at LHW. I don't know, yeah he hits hard, but I wonder what he does with a defensive guru. I say hopkins beats him relatively easy.

Here is the video of the brutal ko
