Comments Thread For: Campbell: Credit To Ryan Garcia, He Got Up And Showed He's Got Real Heart

[Greenfield02]

People saying he's not ready for Tank, he's definitely not ready for Lopez, even though that fight has sizzling match up written all over it, he's definitely ready for Tank. If a 40 year old blown up featherweight one legged fighter in Gamboa and a blown up bantamweight in Santa Cruz can give Tank fits, Garcia with his Size and Power would give tank plenty of fits. If you don't believe that, your either just hating or don't know boxing. I have a feeling Floyd will steer Tank far away from this kid, or any other top LW.

I was rooting for Garcia, but DAZN commentators are brutal. They were talking about having every round(but the round with the KD) for Garcia. I had it much closer than that. Campbell was landing good shots in every round, despite moving backwards much of the time.

I thought Davies had it more correct. Lots of very close rounds before the KO

DAZN commentators are their to praise the cash cow, and they don't even try to hide it.

On Garcia himself: I thought he showed heart and grit to get up from the KD. He answered many questions but raised new ones. His head movement and foot work are suspect. He definitely needs to work on that. Reynoso and Canelo offer plenty to learn from.

As it stands, I would favor Lopez or Davis over Garcia.

I agree. The commentary seemed to ignore everything positive that Campbell was doing. Garcia showed that a well-rounded boxer who stays composed under fire can have success. With that said, Ryan also showed that he only needs a small opening to stop a world-class opponent. Garcia isn’t a defensive wizard but he does possess fight-changing explosiveness.

Great performance from the young man. Needs to work on defense though. Campbell landed some nice shots. If tank lands those same shots Garcia could be in trouble.

Garcia definitely would be in trouble if Tank landed a clean left hand like Campbell did but Tank is 5'5 with short arms and his chin has never been tested so there's a good chance he won't be able to touch Garcia's chin.

If he really wants pacman, he shouldn't move his head exactly like Keith thurman does. Always backwards, until the back 9f his head hits canvas. I think Garcia will be something, with canelo and that coach teaching him the next few years

c’mon, commentary was crappy - true, but Campbell won 2 rounds tops.

Garcia’s performance was MEH... the lack of head movement, and so AWFUL footwork... can’t believe he has learned so little fundamentals...

Who has Tank fought to show he can handle what Ryan brings to the table?

I feel Tank has the better Skill sets.. Both are good dance partners for each other.. ryan being 5'10 fast.. Tank being shorter, quicker with more experience and power than ryan.. I think that Tanks bodyshots would destroy ryans gameplan.. But hey.. This is boxing.. Maybe Tank is the fighter Ryan needs to evolve to his next level..

[5000boxing]

He definitely needs to work on his head movement but I think he was overly excited about this fight and having to prove something, but he's ready for Tank, if a blown up bantamweight in Santa Cruz can give tank fits, Garcia with his size and power can definitely give tank fits. Book it.

Definitely.. But I see Tank breaking Ryan down with his bodywork and raw power.. This is why we love Boxing!!

Campbell shows he has no heart, the reason he never won a belt and
probably would never be a champion. How come you had the opposite badly knockdown then you just watch it??

[petegrif]

Garcia has tremendous speed so

Any fight with him is going to be about timing.

Can Reynoso tighten his defence without inhibiting his natural great twitch speed?

If he can and it gets harder to time him he's going to be a handful because he's fast enough to land in anyone and powerful enough to hurt anyone.
