Not sure how much that matters for power. There have been many thin-legged fighters with good power, and Wilder, arguably one of the best punchers today, has cartoonishly skinny legs.

Campbell's going about this all wrong. He's boxing like he's expecting to overwhelm this guy any second.

Legit. Look at how both fighters are expending energy. Campbell herky jerky nergy sapping style. Mendez fights with the composure of an old pro. Looks like Mendez couldn't be more comfortable.

Mendez won't win the fight like this though. He's not going to do enough to win.

It's pretty even but Campbell is using up a lot more nervous energy than Mendez is.

Campbell should be on the back foot more countering and drawing Mendez onto shots not coming forward and being out timed.

Campbell doesn't particularly impress me. He's probably gonna win this fight though due to Mendez's low output.

Give that round to C. Mendez's workrate is letting him down.

It's fine if you've got natural power, but for fighters that don't like Campbell, who have to generate their own power through technique and timing, the legs are very important to that and the fact he doesn't have much of a base to set himself on won't help.

Mendez seems content to lose every single minute of every round here on in. Baffling.

Just shows the difference between gold Olympics and a standard pro fighter.

I think Campbell's got this if he doesn't burn out.

It's dire. Campbell is there to be beat but Mendez seems too disinterested.

I was never a big fan of this trainer to be honest. Reckon he gets the boot after this fight.
