    From about the 9th minute.

    Crazy talk. Garcia would murder Campbell.

    Eddie has to say things like this to talk Campbell up, he should be aiming at the Crolla's and Flanagan's of this world before calling out Garcia

    Bless Eddie Hearn :risas3: you can tell by the conviction in his voice and the look on his face he doesn't believe that Campbell has a chance against Garcia but Campbell is his fighter and he is doing what a promoter should do and talking his man up with the "styles makes fights" line.

    His first statement and reaction is honest when he said "you go down one route (WBC) and then somebody like Mikey Garcia wins the belt" and that face he pulls tells you what he really thinks.


    Garcia would absolutely ruin Campbell, I don't mind watching vicious beatings but I would have to think twice about watching this if it ever happened because it would be the like putting a poodle in with a pitbull, a really hard watch.

    I'd like to add/ask on the subject of Luke Campbell..

    Why is Hearn talking British title fights with Cardle? and also talking about a world title shot in 2017?

    I know a lot can happen in a few months and we are at the beginning of the year but does Campbell's future route depend on Crolla winning?

    Because the way I see it is this.. if Crolla beats Linares then Hearn will try and keep it in house with a Crolla Vs Campbell fight, that's assuming Linares doesn't try and force a rematch (if it's close or controversial) or they don't do a decider.

    On the flip side, If Linares wins then Campbell will go for a British title fight because Hearn won't pay Linares large AGAIN (Mitchell and Crolla x2) to come over here to the UK for Campbell because he obviously don't have the confidence in Campbell to beat Linares.

    Forget cambell linres. What makes you think Crolla has a chance he got totally outcllassed by Linares. Unless your hoping he's on the decline?

    A great style for getting KO'd maybe. Campbell has no chin, it's only a matter of time before he's on the canvas again.

    Garcia is limited, can only bang, I think Campbell beats him.

    I don't even know where to start with this post, Garcia is one of the most skilled fighters in world boxing. Let me guess you think Lomachenko can only bang too right? Rofl.

    Luke Campbell is European/fringe world level at the absolute best where as Mikey Garcia is elite level on his way to topping the pound for pound rankings so yeah, Eddie Hearn is chatting **** to big up his stable fighter.

    If Garcia goes to light welterweight or welterweight and mixes up with top guys he will lose, fact.No head movement, can only punch and has shaky chin against real punchers.He won against some limited guy in his last fight, a bad night for the boxing fan, I never even have heard about Zlatican, who had an undefeated record by facing nobody, worst fight for the title ever.

    Cmon mate your joking surely, u aint heard of zlat? His rise to world lvl might of been a bit under the radar but hes been a known world lvl fighter for a few yrs now.
    Also Garcia is an elite fighter he has skills out of his ears. Why do you think zlat hardly got a shot in? Mikey controlled the range and was fighting on the back foot till he landed some.
    That takes more skill than just been a puncher

    He's already a 3 weight world champion, so your saying if he goes up to welterweight (five weights above where he won his first world title) and mixes with the best he will lose? Well no **** sherlock, how about Canelo go fight at crusierweight or Thurman go fight at lhw? lol
