    As the title suggests, who would win this in the summer and why.

    I'm not a big fan of Easter but think he will be to tall and rangy for Campbell to deal with - Campbell on points

    I think Campbell wins well, he will take a lot of confidence from being competitive v Linares

    Campbell's performance against Linares is getting taken out of context. Linares is quality but let's face it he isn't exactly at his best.

    In my view, Linares is quality however his opposition of late has been questionable. Average British fighters. He was going through the motions vs Campbell. That was Campbell's best ever effort, yes effort. A lot of fighters from the UK, get the 'what a great effort' line, basically they aren't good enough, simple. Linares was half drill for that fight. Garcia and Easter would hand Campbell a proper bearing, trust me.

    Ah, so you’re being subjective, you’re saying he couldn’t be ar5ed and that’s why Campbell had a great fight. I thought you were going to say that Linares had broke his hand or had had some injuries/illness leading up to the fight and he was fighting at 70% or something or that his dad had died a couple of weeks before.

    Could it be possible that both fighters gave absolutely everything they had, that Campbell is a high skilled southpaw who didn’t give Linares the opportunity to have the fight all his own way?

    i see your point but IMO, Linares was going through the motions.

    Easter Jr would beat him, Campbell is a bit vulnerable to me and one thing we have seen is Easter Jr go to war with tough opposition.
