    It's gonna be Ryan's big opportunity. It's time to step up and fight tough fighters right now.

    Cambell has been in with Loma, that`s experience that Garcia doesn`t have, Garcia waits to counter hook with his gloves up too much and Cambell`s lead hand is more active.

    How would GBP know whether Garcia could beat Cambell or not?

    I agree. His last two fights were very quick. Needs another step up fight I see a potential Jaime Mungia vs Hogan scenario.

    Like previously stated this will tell tale of Garcia... is he the real deal, or only a social media creation

    I feel pretty comfortable that Garcia could also lose 10 rounds to Loma.

    I feel that Garcia will get rid of Campbell a lot quicker and easier than many are expecting

    Props to Garcia for stepping up, thats what champions do. Garcia is clearly the more gifted fighter, Campbell is clearly the more polished and battle-tested. I think it will be a great fight, but with Garcia's speed and explosiveness he can turn around or end a fight in half a second, and Campbell himself has heavily underrated power, he has HEAVY hands when he sits down and commits.

    Ryan Gracia is a new prospect of 135. He will be the Lightweight World Champion soon. Believe me.

    Nobody knows for sure. My point is that Ryan’s team is trying to market him as a pugilistic type of teen idol. They are not going to take any unnecessary risks for a long time.

    Wow! Loma was struggling to get past Cambell`s lead hand for 5 rounds then hurt Cambell to the body after adapting with head movement, Garcia does not have Loma`s constant head movement and hasn`t faced a jab like Cambell`s yet, nor does he have olympic experience.

    Only if he wins this fight then avoids Loma, does Haney have Loma`s belt? Garcia can beat Haney.

    Garcia has more power than Loma but doesn`t set up his shots as wel as Loma nor does he constantly jab like Loma, he won`t land as much at all.

    Garcia might even be shut-out by Loma, he`s nowhere near that level yet.
