    Really good fight so far, great learning fight for Campbell.

    I gave Perez the first 3 rounds but Campbell has won everything since

    When he stepped it up he handled Perez easily but I think Campbell is an easy night's work for Linares

    Campbell looked good after the first 3 rounds.

    I think it's telling Linarez was there and it looks like him v Campbell will happen.

    Eddy putting his money where his mouth is while warren wont for Flanagan?

    Campbell didn't impress at all imo

    And it's embarrassing to talk of Campbell fighting Linares

    Let's have it real, Linares would make a mockery of Campbell, wouldlnt even be close

    I agree but we should be happy Campbell is ready to get in the ring vs linares.

    I think the first three rounds were close, would prob just gave Campbell the third but wouldn't argue with anyone giving all 3 to Perez. I thought Campbell adjusted well and went up a level. I actually believe Campbell would give Linares a hard fight as he's also very skilful. If Linaras was at his best he would win though.

    An easy night's work for any half decent fighter

    Campbell v Linares is utterly pointless, Linares would school him 120-108. It won't happen either. Campbell is not big enough to be a main event on Sky, which would be needed to get Linares back to UK. Unless the show was in Hull and Hearn was prepared to make a huge loss on the show.

    Thought Campbell showed every reason why he would get stopped by Linares

    Think it would be similar to Crolla/Linares 1. Campbell would have his moments but Linares just a level above. I think Campbell should go after the Mendy rematch first.

    Crolla v Campbell would be a good fight. It's Matchroom against Matchroom but Hearn will make that and hope Campbell wins it.

    Yearn ain't putting Luke in with ant anytime soon IMO
    He wants to bet him mixing it with the worlds elite at the weight
    Campbell is doing a diluted type of thing lomo is and will only be fundamental to his fast apprenticeship of learning and learning quick
    And I love it how he is making it work with rubio learning the craft seems more important to him than wanting to rush to world titles
