Sources close to the situation have just informed us that former super featherweight champion Joan Guzman was forced to go to the hospital late last night after suffering from dehydration and coughing up blood. His fight tonight with Nate Campbell could be in jeopardy.
After coming in 3.5 pounds over the 135-pound limit, Guzman was given two hours to make the weight, but opted not to, instead returning to his hotel room. Hours later, Guzman was taken to the hospital for observation after coughing up blood. The fight with Campbell could be in jeopardy. As of now, it's a "game-time decision" as to whether or not Guzman will go forward with the fight. Obviously, if he's cleared medically, Guzman will be strongly advised that the show must go on, but one has to wonder if it's a wise decision to engage in a fight with Campbell being less than 100%.
