    Fight confirmed as happening and another one sided pasting in store.

    Potentially another pay per pudding event.

    You can’t criticise the one sided pasting.

    He’s got a shot at a world title, what do you expect him to do? Turn it down?

    Loma vs anyone in the division is the exact same.

    The PPV aspect however...

    All about the wonga mate - the zero chance of winning not a factor in boxthing these days with 99% of fights.

    The Olympic Medal will be the Pay per Pudding angle yet again.

    I like Luke and I feel some sympathy for him the way this has worked out. I fear the WBC decision has cooked his goose. He's good enough to win a title against most top level boxers but Lomachenko is elite level and he's some way short of that.

    Call me a mong but I’m going to get tickets for this one sided or not will be an honour to see the master in Loma at work.

    After fighting in Vagas and New York, Hull would seem to be the next logical step.

    At least Campbell has some good things going for him unlike Crolla

    Eh? Corolla far more likeable for starters. Tougher too.

    I seen a master last week in Glasgow going into the fight with unknown outcome - would be really good to see Loma live in a competitive fight.

    This has the feel of a Liverpool v Stockport County match

    It was the right thing to do. When there is a clear number one like Loma calling yourself world champion because you have a belt is wrong. Be the best you got to beat the best.

    I'll have a look at the pricing before I decide. Id love to see Loma but matchroom ticket prices are extortionate.

    Not sure Campbell has the momentum behind him anymore to make a dent in the KV Stadium’s capacity, even vs Lomachenko.

    It’s one fight I’d definitely be looking at purchasing tickets for though.

    Len, I just mean he’s young, has a different fighting style and is quicker than Crolla

    I agree Crolla is much more likeable but he was really near the end of his career when he fought loma

    Surprised to hear that this looks to be in the UK with how Hearn has shafted the UK this year. Other thank Mikey or Tank who obviously want no part of it this is the best fight for Loma imo. I think it will be more difficult than the Crolla fight, Campbell is a serious high level operater and it will take Loma a few rounds to figure out Campbell before getting to him. It’s not competitive but who is against Loma and this will probably be our last chance to see him fight in the flesh over here
