    Body shots? From the Brizuela fight it looked more defensive frailties than punch resistance, Tommy couldnt find the range so leaned foward to connect leaving the ribs exposed. Just my opinion

    Not sure whether it was to the head or body.. or both! Billy mentioned it a few weeks back in another thread.

    I don't think Campbell is taking to the pros too well at all when compared to some people's expectations. He needs to get fighting and often. Great little domestic scene to work through.

    I always thought hed be better starting at feather or super feather I mean lets face it 4 divisions is alot to move up and its going to take time I think alot of ppl are forgetting that he didnt win the olympic gold at lightweight but he choose to move up as thats where the big fights are at he certainly isny shying away from a challenge its like kahn winning lightweight silver medal then making his pro debue about middleweight

    The difference is Amir turned pro soon after his Olympics and maintained his weight, if I remember right Luke waited nearly a year and he naturally got bigger and heavier

    Ricky, Anthony and Terry would be hard fights for him just now
    Good fights would be Derry,Murray & Ormand
