    Twitter cult and internet incels created a standard last Saturday and he also to be judged by the same standard.

    And on paper, he has a better chance of beating Loma than Yarde had against Kovalev.
    Does this paper have Kovalev's age on it?

      He's 36 and that's not that relatively old since he outclassed a legit champion a few months ago. And he was fighting a complete novice in his backyard.

      Everything in this fight favours Campbell. So no excuses.

          That is just BS. The odds makers who handicap boxers for a living had the odds almost even on Kovalev vs Yarde. To win $100 on Loma you must bet $2500 so Loma is a gigantic favorite. Everybody but a few Englishmen know Loma will win.

            Just a technicality but Kovalev went off at -188 and by the time fight was going to start he was at -250 so basically $100 to win $40.

            You are right though Loma is a ridiculously big favorite. Like books would not even take big bets on Campbell. They may just outright refuse them.

              No, he shouldn't fire McGuigan if he loses to Loma. Losing to one of best boxers in the world does not justify a sacking.

                Let's see what in-fight adjustments Shane would make when Campbell gets into the deep end and has to swim on Saturday.

                And no excuses about inexperience is allowed because Yarde's corner on Saturday was also inexperienced.
                You cant use inexperience with Campbell as an excuse, he has extensive amateur background and has already fought some high-level opposition. Same thing with his corner, Shane has experience training fighters at world level.

                If Campbell loses and gets embarrassed then he and his corner simply aren't good enough.

                Theres definitely a lot of room for improvement for Yarde, while I dont particularly like the guy I can see he has potential, he was taking Kovalevs shots well and ultimately it was exhaustion that caught up with him.

                  So, in your warped mind, Loma is more proven against a higher level of opposition than Kovalev, yh? LMAO.

                  You're not just dyslexic, I believe you also suffer from autism. And that's a double whammy. What an accursed m0ron!
                  A quick google search you spastic.

                  Several origins have been proposed; possibly derived from dialectal nonce, nonse (“******, worthless individual”)

                      There's no excuse for Campbell not to get the victory. He has the amateur pedigree. He's fighting at home in-front of Brits and not in Lomachenko's hometown in Ukraine. He also has the edge in pro experience, size, height, reach and weight advantage.

                      But watch how the same losers will make all kinds of excuses after Saturday. I see a pattern there.
                      All those won't matter when you are leaps behind your opponent. Campbell is better than Crolla but not by much. Can't see him coming close to winning.
