    It's a big opportunity for him to learn. This is an elite opponent he'll face next. It's about time the kid raise up the level of his game.

    Campbell is too experienced for Ryan at this moment in time. I just can't see Luke losing to Ryan, maybe in 2 or 3 years but not now. Ryan is crazy to take this fight

    Garcia will whoop Campbell who is not much more than a journeyman,

    That french chap gave him a hell of a hiding, and Garcia is much better than him

    Garcia by comfortable decision, 9-3 or so. Campbell will fight defensively and not get touched as much, but he won't offer up much in the way of offense. Definitely a step up for Garcia, but not at all dangerous. Campbell has never beaten a fighter as good as Ryan Garcia.

    Garcia has never beaten a fighter as good as Cambell and he`s never faced a former olympic gold medalist either.

    Correct. But I don't give Campbell's experience any real advantage here. By the eye test I think Garcia will beat him on output and speed alone.

    Think everyone is underestimating the speed of Gsrcia.
    Speed allows fighters to get away with mistakes.
    Speed can't be taught.
    Speed that Campbell is going to have a hard time adusting to.
    Garcia tko 5

    Last go around at the top table for Luke. This time he wins. He's bitterly battle hardened now and if it gets tough, he's been there while it will be new and scary to Garcia.
    Campbell any time after 9.
    Welcome back by the way.

    This boost Garcia's stock immensely if he gets the win. Definitely a big opportunity.
    Even if he does lose, he's only 21, I don't see this having too much of an effect on his career and will have plenty of time to work up to the level.

    As much as I don’t like Garcia, I think he beats Cool Hand Luke. Otherwise, GBP wouldn’t have accepted the fight.
