    This would be an easier fight for Loma then Linares... but at stated there is no demand and I don't think they're would be much in the UK except possibly just curiosity for people to see Loma...

      I actually think if Campbell had a few more fights against good opposition, he might have beaten Linares. It was fairly close.

      Campbell doesn't stand a chance v Loma though but i actually think Campbell is a pretty good fighter. I could see him getting some good wins at a good level.

          Crolla is a top, top bloke, probably the best in boxing. Saying that's he's not got a prayer against Loma.

            Same here, Campbell is pretty solid, although can't see Loma having too many problems with him. Lots of good reasons for Loma to go over to UK to fight someone to get his exposure up across the pond (and similar time zone to Ukraine would help at home), be it Campbell or Crolla (both Ring top 10, so fair enough).

            Neither has a belt though, so that's an issue to Loma's 'got to have a belt' requirement.

            Also no reason for this to get in the way of Mikey or anyone else. Presumably he'll be fighting 3 times a year for the next 2 years, so that's 6 opponents needed; Mikey might be good enough for a rematch, and a Linares rematch wouldn't be so bad, but that leaves a few dance partners needed still.

              Yeah it would the equivalent of Floyd competing at 160. If he lost at that weight it wouldn’t have meant a jot

                  Campbell would do fairly well. He’s very long with solid fundamentals. Would present some issues. Obviously nothing that Loma wouldn’t overcome and it is good for Campbell too. He’s got a good attitude to the game. He’ll fight him

                    Its all fair and well Lomachenko fighting guys that have also been climbing the weights. But a natural 140 guy, with a +90% KO ratio, lol.

                    He's gunna fight a UK fight theyd have to have a belt. Think the fighting in the UK talk was because they fully expected Garcia to drop the WBC, and Campbell/Mendy was gunna be for the vacant. That didn't end up happening, so now Campbell would have to beat Garcia for us to see Lomachenko in the UK.
