Comments Thread For: Campillo Saves His Career With TKO of Williams

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

35-year old former WBA Light Heavyweight titlist Gabriel Campillo (24-6-1, 10 KO) of Madrid, Spain, saved his career on Friday night at the Little Creek Casino Resort in Shelton, Washington, cutting and forcing a stoppage of previously undefeated 26-year old Thomas Williams Jr. (17-1, 12 KO) of Fort Washington, Maryland.

Campillo came into the contest just below the division limit at 174 ¾ while Williams came in at the limit at 175. The referee was Ray Corona.

Williams got off to a solid start, jabbing well and backing Campillo up with heavy if partly blocked shots. Williams landed solidly to the body and Campillo, stopped in two of his previous four fights, appeared to have shaky legs.

I cannot believe Teddy was duped by such a crappy fighter!!!! That's like a high-level government security officer being pick-pocketed by a guy standing right in front of him!! Like I said, Williams was slow and clumsy and Campillo easily blocked those punches telegraphed from another area code. Williams was another one of those who can dish it out but cant take it.

The facebook poll had Williams winning rounds 2 and 3 by a large margin. Thought that was ridiculous. I had him winning every round after the first.

Like I always say, too many people are wined, dined, and seduced by unbeaten records! Teddy was robbed blind by a two-bit hooker!

What a bitch Williams is, he quit I dont care what anyone else had to say lol hell even teddy atlas told him that to his face in not too many words.

Williams couldn't handle the heat in the kitchen! Williams and adversity don't get along too well. Still hard to believe Williams was a strong favorite to win. WTF?

I don't think I've seen a fighter react so badly to that type of cut.
