      Campbell didn't have much of an amateur background, as he started his boxing career extremely late at age 28 after having only 36 amateur fights..he fought his first amateur fight at 25yo

        Just checked.

        He was 60-4.
        Look into it deeper.

        The reports of him in the amateurs are sketchy and are reported by the Philippines government not a boxing association.
