    I listed who.

    You said Campbell was ranked #3 in the division so he must be a good win. Well, Teofimo Lopez is ranked #3 in the division by one governing body and #1 by two others. That's evidence enough if we go by those standards. And if Commey beats him then he obviously is a good challenge too.

    In my opinion Tank is easily better than Campbell. You can tell by watching them fight. He just hasn't grown enough of a pair to make the fight yet which I don't hold against Lomachenko.

Domestic C+ level fighters trying to belong in a sport of the elite, own 90% by boxers in the American continent.
      'American continent'... your slip is showing.

        I hope Berchelt can show some mexican style. might be a problem for Loma but he's gonna make it.

        Tank gonna wait till Loma is something like 35. And I doubt that Loma will accept this fight even at 35, only just to laugh at Tank&Floyd.

        Haney, Lopez, yeah. Pretty sure they all come to Loma after Loma becomes Undisputed champion. He won't need to go for them. They all will come to him and he gonna show 'em all who's the BOSS here.
        Good. Let's get all those names on Lomachenko's resume, then. People won't have anything to complain about if he actually runs the table with those guys.

          ABC rankings are BS and you know it. I was using tbrb and ring. Lopez is 5 on ring (which surprises me since Easter is 6th And id take Easter to beat Lopez) and he’s listed 8th on tbrb (which is more in line)

          Not impressed that someone who’s signed to top rank is #1 with the WBO lol.

          And I can’t tell that tank is better than Campbell, tank only fights bantams and super bantams. We don’t know how someone bigger will react to his power or how tank will take theirs.

            Campbell and Mikey are actually quite alike, solid fundamentals but no special effects. If we remember, Mikey showed weakness against stick and move types early on, subsequently avoiding them - and they happen to be two of the people Campbell lost to (Linares and Loma). Campbell vs Mikey could be a very technical and interesting fight.

              Like I posted in the Live Fight Thread he wasting his time in America the Home of the Most Fickle Boxing Fans ever! So it is great that Arum is talking about taking him around the World where no question he will be appreciated MORE

              Not just Loma either, it is plenty of American Boxers who would get love around the World inatead of continue to fight in Vegas, NY and Los Angeles over and over in front of Half ASS Crowds

                Certain people will continue to complain/criticise no matter what. Its their only talent

                    Barry Hearn isn't American or a forum member. For what it's worth.

                      yeah this forum has been taken over by the most immature boxing fans in the world desperate for attention they clearly lack in their everyday lives
