    Steve Kim five minutes ago on Twitter:

    "Alright, morning everyone, so I spoke to a member of Jorge Linares' team, they tell me that there are discussions about them stepping into face Ryan Garcia in mid-Dec, but nothing finalized. #boxing"

    I hope Campbell groupies don't think this is a downgrade, after all Linares beat that bum like a drum and made him cry.

    **** yes! Better fight. Linares beat Cambell fair and square in a very tight fight and was much more competitive against a more prime, fresher Lomachenko.

    I'll order DAZN for a month for this one.

    I can see that. While I don't follow Linares all that much since he lost his title, the last time I did see him fight he got stopped in one. Which wasn't a good look.

    Linares often gets stopped, doesn’t say much, he’s inconsistent.

    This is a very good test for Ryan Garcia. Could be 50/50, Linares is highly skilled.

    Seems like Garcia vs Campbell is back on. Rumors are they are trying to put it on the upcoming Alvarez-Smith undercard.

    Golden Boy would be involved in that so doubt it

    I doubt Alvarez would cockblock Ryan.

    Linares is most likely shot at this point but if he can conjure up his old version... it would be fantastic
