    What a great atmosphere. I really wish I could get across the pond and see a major fight in the UK.
    Nope. A quiet crowd benefits Campbell. Loma feeds on loud crowd enemy energy. He'll finish Luke fast.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Loma struggled a little.

      The thing about it is, in spite of all Hearns Shinanigans, he can be had. He's bleeding money and pandering. He still has his fangs in Andy, I wonder if Ramirez got away sin mordida.

        It wouldn't move the needle for me, because I expect more from Loma than beating Campbell. Road warrior doesn't add much credit. Loma is a road warrior in the US, too.


        Campbell is better than Crolla.
        Road warriors overcome other things than nostalgia. Time changes, and weather, unfriendly fans, refs, judges. The hometown edge doesn't change because he fights in the US too, I still give Campbell 3 points before the first bell.

          I’m by far no Hearn fan but that comment lacks any understanding of a Promoter’s job. He gets his fighter a crack at unified titles, sells out the event and gets it in his fighter’s own country. Granted the competition is stiff but that’s what a good promoter does is gets his fighters the shot at a title.

          If anything this shows how excellent he is at his job.
          I'm assuming (hoping) it was sarcasm, there is literally nothing here that you could paint in a negative light for Matchroom. At least I hope it was, you just never know with the UK vs US drivel & promoter fanboys at times.
