    Prove me wrong, but Luke Campbell is a Bum

    He hasn't beaten anybody of note and loses everytime when he steps it up.

    To be fair, he's not that tough either, he frequently hits the canvas.

    Downed by Mendez (who?), downed by Mendy (who?), downed by Linares, downed by Lomachenko, downed by Garcia.

    24 fights and this guy has hit canvas 5 times. That's not exactly the hallmark of a real champion. I get it, fighters sometimes get dropped, but 5 times in 7 years?

    For Garcia, to get dropped by a guy like this is pretty much a sign of bad things to come. He wasn't just dropped, he was dropped flithy with his arm behind his back.

    I see a lot of people here are giving Garcia props and stuff, but these are like Canelo fans talking. Not exactly the most coherant or reasonable of fans.

    Can anybody prove me wrong that Campbell isn't just another Eurobum?

    I've seen him fight, he's like a C+ level fighter in my opinion.

    I wouldn’t call him a Bum. But I never thought he was all that. He landed one good shot hat dropped Ry. Other than that he was very selective in there and didn’t push the offence. He was waiting in there. If his plan was to come on late... well he couldn’t even get there. Ry pushed it after the KD, not Campbell.

      No one who's a top ten guy is a "bum".

        This forum is 99.9999% casuals. Luke won an Olympic GOLD medal and some guy who’s never boxed calls him a bum online LOL!

          Not a bum but not what I'd call good. My point is a win over Campbell doesn't prove anything.

                  No point in proving anything, the fact that you called him a “Eurobum” shows you aren’t here to discuss boxing.

                  Garcia took a hard shot, went down hard and got up. That proves everything from Garcia’s side that we need to know.

                  If Garcia had a Pappadom chin like Amir Khan then that fight would be over right there.
