Never saw what the big fuss about Campbell was.

I forgot he was even on this bill.

Campbell sucks even worse than zhiming
A UK hype job

Fair decision.

He landed all the good punches, bullied Campbell around and dropped him heavily.

Flushhhhhhhhhhhhh

Mendy and Burns would be a good fight. An opportunity for Ricky to get back in amongst the names.

Glad this fraud got exposed early. One fewer of these average joe frauds to keep reading about.

The typical NSB response to a prospect getting upset:" Fraud", "Hype job", "I Knew he wasn't that good".

Campbell is a better fighter than he showed. He just got roughed up by a veteran fighter who has been in the ring with fighters like Postol and Tatli. Some better training and he'll be back in a year to rematch this guy.

Not seen the fight but shocked he lost.

I always said I wasn't impressed with Campbell but didn't expect him to lose at this level.

Yeah I remember having that conversation with you.

Didn't expect him to lose to this guy either. Looked as though he might have underestimated him tbh.
