Comments Thread For: Campbell On Declining To Press Garcia In Round 2: 'If I Rush In I Was Going To Get Caught'

Campbell

This is what you get from a B level fighter that has never beat a top 5 fighter but is praised because he lost to the only real pro fighters he has fought. Campbell is a glorified amateur fighting in the pros

[Bandman]

reminds me of when Corley hurt Cotto and did absolutely nothing capitalize.

hey Luke that's why you'll be domestic level forever lol

[Sctrojan]

All the internet warriors in saying he shouldve done this,shouldve done that is comedy gold lol!! This guy is a ****in Olympic Gold medalist,elite level boxer who's dedicated 25yrs of his life to the sport and it still doesnt occur to you clowns,that hed be the one to know wtf he has in front of him across that ring??...lmao you guys are too much. It was clear to him and anyone watching that Ryan still had his legs under him and was ready to try and catch him coming in with that lightning quick rocket of a left hand that would've knocked him tfo. That's exactly what he saying here but you hating ass mofos are like.... nah,that wasnt it "yous just a little beotch that's all"...like come on lol.

If you guys actually watched the fight,you'd see soon after he dropped ryan,he got badly hurt by a left hook to the same area that eventually ko'd his ass,he just hid it well.

Ok genius. Him been cautious still got him KTFO so wouldn't it have been better if he gave himself a chance to win that fight by actually going for it the one and only time he had a shot to do so. Been an olympic gold medal means little if you cant recognize what you have in front of you. Ryan was hurt, he disguised it pretty well thru his bravado. One or two good shots after would have told the story but he let him off the hook. He didn't even try. Imagine if Ryan was thinking like Campbell, he would be holding on for dear life instead of fighting back. Had it been Teo, Loma, Tank in that spot, they would have try to capitalize. Thats why those guys are champions and Campbell is approaching gatekeeper status.

No, incorrect. They are champions because they know when someone is truly hurt and when someone is not. None of the fighters you named go instakill. ALL KO artists know when someone gets stunned vs hurt badly. After assessing some take their time and use patience and probe to see if someone is truly hurt. Immediately after getting knocked down he gets to his feet, doesn’t disengage, flat footed again and ready to counter which he did. Like felt the counters and knew exactly he wasn’t ready for the kill.

That’s the difference between a seasoned professional and an observer. The professional knows when someone is ready to go

Exactly, and Anthony Joshua made the same mistake against Andy Ruiz Jr. in their fight

[whollisboxing]

Ryan got dropped but he instantly recovered. Got up fast, showed no wobbly legs or being hurt. He didn't try to survive the round or hold Campbell he got up throwing huge hooks trying to take Campbell's head off. Ryan was recovered and very dangerous. Campbell got the knockdown by being calculated not rushing in to get countered. Campbell was worried about that hook coming in all night long didn't want to be reckless and knocked out.

Exactly. And I guess people forgot about what happened to Anthony Joshua when he rushed in after scoring a knockdown in the first Andy Ruiz fight. Ruiz got up clear-headed just like Ryan did and AJ got caught immediately afterwards.

[Corelone]

It's true when they say, a scared man can't win. For Luke to complain about the scoring and then tell you why he didn't press the action is kind of dumb. He wants points for avoiding the action after knocking Ryan down? That's why it was a 10-9 round.

aka= NO BALLS... Great fighters take chances, sub par ones don't, you SUCK...
