Comments Thread For: Lomachenko-Campbell: All Terms Agreed To For August 31, London

[apollocreed]

Campbell is gonna shock the world but it shouldn’t be a shock, he’s much bigger than Lomachenko. Campbell by KO.

Haha. Good one.

[apollocreed]

Lomachenko is a 9 to 1 favorite
5'7" 65" reach. Cambell 5'9" 71" reach both southpaw, both gold medalist. Despite the odds this could be a great fight.

Campbell has some good qualities, but he still got beat (in my opinion) by Linares, and Campbell was taller than him.
Loma ended up being too good for Linares. Yes you can say that's a triangle theory, but to me that shows the level Loma is at.
It's a decent match up, Campbell is high ranked contender, but I wouldn't give him a realistic chance of winning.

Haha. Good one.

You have to put these things out there just in case they happen. I will look like a genius if Campbell wins.

It’s not as far fetched as Crolla

[GlassJoey]

any one who shits on this fight must be a racist or a crackhead, thinking Olympic Gold Medalist is a BUM. Should just stop watching boxing all together....

Same people will say it was a weight mismatch when Campbell splatters him

Yeah but Crolla v Loma was one of, if not THE, most predictable fight outcome I've ever known.
Just because Campbell winning is less unlikely than Crolla doesn't mean it has a realistic chance of happening.

Who has a chance against Loma?

Not fughin Campbell

I'm happy for Campbell to get a big fight. I considered him a little unlucky in that Linares fight, which came at a difficult time for him also.

He's a good fighter. It's just that here, he's up against one of the very best.

[Lomadeaux]

This fight just doesn't get me excited. Campbell is good but he stands no chance. Loma will outclass him, ko him within 10. The lightweight division ain't competitive for Loma anymore. I want him to go to 140. He can definitely beat a champion or 2 at the weight.

Yea.. He's a small dude. He can fight some good fights at Lightweight but these guys like Davis need to stop ducking him.

Totally agree, I mean Campbell is a decent fighter and i don't want to disrespect him at all. He is just facing a great fighter in Loma, I mean he could have done what some are doing, pretend as if Loma doesn't exist.

Yeah I agree mate. He's a very tidy fighter and underrated somewhat I feel.

When a chance to face Loma came about, he was always going to take it, as opposed to just using Loma's name to build his profile like others have.
