It will be man vs boy in there

Cambell doesn't have the power to keep linares off him

Yep, I can't see Luke lasting the distance here.I hope i'm wrong.

I really think he can win this. I think Campbell gets very underrated by people...

Also, Linares was almost beaten by Kevin Mitchell - people forgot that because he beat Anthony Crolla twice, but in reality Campbell is a much better fighter than Crolla.

the only chance campbell has is hoping that linares paper face falls to pieces and he win's via cuts or some ****

Exactly. Well said. Luke is from my city and he does get underrated but that's Cool, if people really knew and understood the circumstances around the mendy fight then they'd agree he shouldn't of been in the ring that night but it happened. The way he's moved on has been good to see... People on here saying he doesn't have enough power are crazy Luke has more then enough pop in his left hand. I'll be betting on Campbell 110%

What were the circumstances around the Mendy fight? I don't remember hearing much but I remember his Dad was sick a while back, is that what you mean? I just thought Mendy had an awkward style for him, but it didn't show his true quality as a fighter.

Is it safe to say...
England is your city?

What annoys the *** out of me is Campbell gets the title shot when it is the guy who beat him that should be getting the shot! A guy who has been on a winning streak since beating Campbell. This guy earned the shot >>> http://boxrec.com/boxer/353225. He beat Campbell and has won 5 straight since!
