    Haha show you how far people will go to bash Eddie. Did Hearn send over Brook to fight on DAZN?

    Agree. Applaud those who actually legitimately believe they can win.

    Campbell is already on Instagram posting photos with Garcia and Canelo.

    To be fair to Luke, he showed a far better performance than Smith did 2 weeks ago.

    Garcia telling him in the corner post fight "that he learnt a lot" is quite telling and respectful.

    Unlucky Luke. At least you dropped him and came forward.

    True but still not scoring shots technically and that's the point.

    He won almost every round on my cards and the judges. Smith was never in that fight.

    I didn't say he was. The punches on the arms were not scoring shots though.

    Campbell did himself proud

    Knockdown was good for Garcia, it will bode him sellf. Garcia is a talent, great power, accuracy and of course the looks, but still a lot to learn. He is not ready for Tank yet

    Is it just me who weren’t TOO impressed with Garcia?

    he definitely struggles with Lopez, Davis I think has the power to knock him out, Lomachenko interesting, Haney is a very close one.

    I've looked more heartbroken losing a score on the horses than Luke does here

    This fight came down to the physical deterioration of a 33 year old fighter in with a 22 year old. A man who has been killing himself to make weight for his entire adult life and is now physically done.

    In the 5th he got lazy/slowed down allowing Garcia to get inside of the line. Got caught with a bomb at the end of the round as a result, and the fight was over from that point on. He never recovered from that in the fight.

    Campbell was technically head and shoulders above Garcia but wasn’t physically prime enough to execute the winning gameplan for 12 rounds.

    Garcia looks like a Golden boy version of Amir Khan. Hand speed, lack of ring IQ and a dodgy chin. I think they steer clear of a serious challenge for at least 12 months after seeing him dropped like that.

    Garcia does have the benefit of one to one tuition with Canelo to help him on his technical deficiencies but I think he gets stopped at the highest level. Haney, Teofimo Lopez and Tank Davis do him.

    The Dad ****ing Garcia up the ass in the middle of the ring as a celebration was a bit much tbh
