    Can’t see it myself

    He’ll have more success that Crolla and will last longer but I think he gets stopped not long after the 5th round

    Not sure what loma’s plans are after this as I think he’s too small to move up another weight division

    Top rank have Teofimo, Inoue, Shakur Stevenson all being lined up as future Loma opponents that he wouldn't have to move up in weight for.

    If he goes North it's Jose Ramirez waiting for him...

    In what way, are you fishing? Do you mean he will go the distance? Or he will put it on him and cause him real problems?

    He may cling onto a comprehensive points loss, but he won’t hurt Loma or win.

    I think he will be fairly competitive for the first 4 rounds tops, before Loma starts tracking him down with body shots. I see Loma stopping him somewhere between 6-9

    Loma's movement is simply too good, unless Campbell can pin him down he has got no chance.

    *Adam Smith dramatic tone and timbre* -

    "Is This The Night?"

    "Does Luke have it in him to pull off a dramatic upset?"

    "Tyson Douglas" etc

    Told you.

    It’s simple. He’s a big, skilful southpaw who won a gold and pushed linares v close and fighting at home.

    Not sure why he was written off.

    It wasn't close at all. Campbell had some early success in patches but was downed once, almost downed twice save for wrestling and soundly outboxed.

    Lomachenko is a once in a lifetime fighter but hype affects everyone's perception at some point.

    Only so far he can go until size / weight / toughness defeats him.

    Dominant win, but he needs to go back down to 130. One of the greats.
