Linares points

Lord enough with the 'who wins' that's..... so many there will soon be a 'Who Wins' forum

[Oiky]

This can't be a serious question?

Linares could beat Campbell with one arm behind his back

Campbell is bang average

You don't have to vote.

I like wesshaws polls, I find it interesting what other people think about potential match-ups

I totally agree Oiky, but somehow Hearn has worked Campbell into the position.
I'm just wondering if Hearn or anybody else on here sees something I don't...

God knows mate

I couldlnt believe it when Hearn got Linares to come and stand by Campbell and spoke of a possible fight, madness

I find it interesting that right now it is 17 votes to 1 in Linares favour, an almost dead cert, and you can get 2/5 betting on the fight.
A license to print money if you ask me...

I'd be more interested in Campbell vs Crolla but I can't see how that would interest Crolla who is in a bit of an awkward position now having lost 2 on the spin at the top level. Does he risk another tilt at a world title or start again with the other contenders? Will he settle for gatekeeper status after all the glory of the past couple of years? Interesting to see where Crolla goes from this point actually, a fairy tale career he's had but he won't want to bow out on two losses

"will either happen in September or December" according to Hearn today.

1/3 Linares, might have to lump on this...

I can see him going for a vacant wbc title vs Ray Beltran

Mikey garcia may not stay at the weight if he beats Broner

Wow that is one of the widest polls I have seen here.

Is campbell really that much an underdog????

Thanks - but in the eyes of the boxrecers? I went for Linares but at the moment Campbell is being given less than a 5% chance of winning.

I cant personally see how Campbell beats him. Linares has too much experience in my eyes...

Beltran is looking beastly right now, with KTFO power and durability that Linares doesn't have, but he still seems to go under the radar. I think there is a better risk/reward ratio with Linares...

[gilgamesh]

I think Linares would outbox Campbell comfortably, and probably stop him.

Aye fails a drugs test and has KTFO power afterward ....

I only mentioned him because him and Campbell are 1 and 2 with the wbc so a vacant belt means they fight for it.

[crusader]

Beltran is like the LW Povetkin.

A failed test and suddenly KTFO power in his mid-30s...he's just been flattening guys.

[gilgamesh]

Beltran is like the LW Povetkin.

Yeah. I like Beltran, but it's definitely more than a little suspect.

Buncey and Barry said exactly this on BN after his fight the other week. Leaves a nasty taste in the mouth.

[Ossyrules]

Campbell didn't over impress me vs Perez, although important thing was he got the w

He'd need to show me something more than what he has so far to beat linares. The only arguement I can make is freshness, but I'm really clutching at straws
