    who had luke campbell beat and what belts did he hold?

    Any one? Ive never seen such an overreaction to beating (and getting dropped hard) by a fringe world level fighter, they were celebrating as if they'd knocked out the p4p number 1 , is that what makes someone a star these days, jesus christ. and for everyone comparing that performance with linares and lomachenko, how come this never applies to other fighters? Usually people say 'oh well he wasnt the same' after he lost but this guys lost 3, beaten noone and people say oh well garcia stopped him yet loma and linares couldnt, as if that ****ing matters when loma and linares arent known as power punchers. and if you wanna compare the fights from what i saw lomachenko and linares didnt get put on their arse.
    This kid and de la hoya are talking like they run the sport, i almost threw up when de la hoya was talking about 'fights being on garcias terms' since when was luke campbell the man to beat in the division? Is that the marking stick of greatness?
    and on a side note all the mexican fans acting like garcia is one of their own is damn pathetic, hes so mexican he needed a translator in the corner, i keep seeing this over and over again them clinging onto fighters who are american and not mexican, get your own fighters ffs and ones that dont cheat.
    and one last thing, people slamming UK boxing, these arent our best guys do you realise that? the guys who are getting these shots against these fighters are the ones who have lost multiple times, been exposed and turning up for one final payday.

    It’s a fair point.

    As a pro...

    Commonwealth ✅
    British ❌
    European ❌
    World ❌

    So in terms of titles he’s only proven himself to be domestic level. Same as Dillian Whyte.

        You’re aware that Campbell is a recent win of Lomachenko’s right?

              He's an Olympic gold medalist. I thought that meant something to you guys? Amateurs no longer matters? After all these years of hearing about the amateur records of all these eastern euros now suddenly amateur doesn't mean anything?

                Ultimately, Luke Campbell took the people the full distance that shouldn't have.

                That shows toughness.

                Now, imagine if Campbell were 147 and he took almost everyone the distance, yet Spence sparked him in 6. Basically, the Chris Algieri of the division.

                What that tells us is, this guy Spence must be legit because he did what everyone else FAILED to do.

                Sometimes it's that simple.

                Now, had Campbell never fought Lomachenko, I would agree, because at that point he wouldn't have shown us anything but if he fought Ryan first, got knocked out in 7, then fights Tank who sparks him in 2, now we believe Tank just might be more legit than Ryan. Whether that's true or not, that's the appearance.

                That's why when Tank took out Pedraza better than anyone had, it mattered.

                When Garcia took out Fonseca better than Tank, it mattered.

                That's the REAL 'eye test' - how good are you against a common PRIME opponent?

                That's why Crawford needs to fight Porter. It's the same thing. Nobody would say that Porter is a world beater, but he's proven he belongs at the top with solid performances, now we need to see if Crawford could take out Porter better than Spence did.

                It's the same thing here with Ryan. Compare performances with PRIME common opponents.

                  Maybe a better observation and fact would be “ why wont Tank or Haney fight Cambell, Shakur, Teo or Nakatani?????

                    I've never seen such an overreaction as far as trying so hard to discredit a young fighter's first solid win.

                    Luke Campbell was seen as Ryan Garcia's best opponent to date going into the fight and Garcia won.

                    Nobody is saying he is the new p4p king; he was tested in the fight and he passed the test.

                    If anything, I'm seeing more people writing essays to bash Ryan Garcia than to praise him.
