ha ha, i am stealing that. big balls from the lad if true. he is certainly willing to learn the hard way. young enough to still be around at his peak when all those ahead of him at the moment will be retired/past it. good on him,will learn loads

Fair play to him agreed.

I don't think it's right to go into fights that you know you are going to lose though. Surely he knows he hasn't got a prayer here? I'd like to see him or his trainer hooked up to a lie detector test and asked if they think they will win the fight. I know what the result of Hearns test would be

campbells actually older then most of the top fighters from 130 to 140. loma, garcia, easter, berchelt, davis, flanagan, taylor, etc all younger

tbh i wouldnt be that excited for it, seems theres a real strong to desire to think that campbells better then he really is, that hell be that pro star he looked he could be vs tommy coyle like opponents on the way up, rather then an excellent amateur whose merely a good but not great pro

although i prefer campbell to beltran

youd think, but i get the sense some ppl really think campbells a star quality boxer waiting to break out

Last i heard Lomachenko was due to fight Linares. Is there really much of a difference? I actually think Loma would make much lighter work of Linares and stop him quicker than he would Luke imo.

i think lomas gonna fight beltran

What's needed here is a poll....

If true it’s a great fight. Campbell going to fight lomo and everyone here giving him stick. This is a boxing forum but what a pack of negative privks yee are

I'd rather wait and see if it happens. I certainly don't think too much of this

Like someone else said Lima will probably fight Beltran

Which is crap but at least we see a proven drug cheat smashed to pieces

Good fight. Loma will win but Campbell will make him work for it.

He'll put up a better showing than alot of Loma's victims.

ya because everyone here is just viciously verbally abusing campbell, thats exactly whats gone on, or maybe try reading the thread again. you sure love the 'you guys are so unfair and negative and biased!!' angle dont you honeyman

tbh the reaction seems favourable enough, you saying its great, someone saying campbells more interesting then linares , another person saying good fight and that campbell will have more success then a number of loma opponents. then someone saying campbell will be young enough to come again, another person saying fair play for taking the fight, etc. some neutral comments in there about loma vs beltran , etc.

i said its not interesting but theres nothing unfair at all about saying your not interested in the fight or that you think campbell isnt near that level etc. thats a fair opinion with evidence for it. theres no obligation to shower luke campbell or the fight with praise. remember that guys take fights vs better opponents all the time. i mean did you post a similar message when ppl werent lavishing miguel marriaga with praise even though he not only fought loma, but moved up to do it?

wow, thanks for that. that's the trouble with being a casual, thinking instead of knowing. in that case he is off his head

I honestly don't know how to beat Loma. Tie him to a corner maybe. Get Foreman to sit on him while you punch his face? He's so good

Iron chin needed along with a non stop work rate should do the trick, cant see who fits the bill though

Beltran is done. He just got schooled for half a fights worth vs Paulus Moses - glad he got the belt but he's a significant step down at this stage from Walters, Rigondeux, etc.

Loma fighting over on our shores is enough for me. If Campbell fights him in the 02 London, good luck to him as this is a treat for UK fight fans to see Loma live in London.

i agree not eager for beltran at all. would prefer campbell to raymundo.

Why is Eddie throwing Luke to the wolf ? I thought he was like a son to him....

Easy, easy work for chenko

Well I'm going against you lot & saying points UD for Campbell
