Luke Campbell ??
Seems a forgotten man.
No news on him at all now. By the time he fights it will be a year since he was in a proper fight.
There was talk of the Mendy rematch for a few months but nothing has materialised. He was also linked to a fight with Crolla but nothing happened.
He proved against Linares he can hold his own at world level. It's a shame because he has lost momentum.

Re: Luke Campbell ??
Fairly sure the Mendy match has been agreed, and waiting on a date being finalised (likely to be the Joshua card).

Heard somewhere that Campbell vs Mendy has been mandated as a final eliminater
Re: Luke Campbell ??
Same but it was about 3 months ago now.
I think they were waiting on the WBC belt to become vacant but Mikey Garcia is now staying at 135.

Generally speaking, Matchroom fighters are not gaining momentum and remain less active than I think they should be

I hope the Mendy fight happens.
Luke has gained a heck of a lot of experience since their first fight.
12 rounds almost holding his own with Linares is better than the last 6 of Mendy's fights combined.
Bring it on!

Re: Luke Campbell ??
Yeah I think he'll definitely improve after the Linares experience. I wouldn't mind seeing a rematch of that over here actually after the Mendy rematch....

Re: Luke Campbell ??
I think the fight against Linares has done Campbell the world of good. I expect he'll deal with Mendy relatively easy.
Re: Luke Campbell ??
A fight with Mendy is not worth a year of waiting for.
Why is Hearn keeping his fighters so inactive?
Does boxing really have to be run like this?
