Luke Campbell's record as an amateur

Agreed, i think if McCracken going to work with one boxer out of the squad as a pro, Campbell is probably the best one for him too.

 

Wouldn't he train out of hull?

 

I really hope its Robert Mccracken. Both Froch and Mccracken seem to have a great relationship with Luke and obviously they have worked together for a while in Sheffield, it seems a good fit.

 

:thumbsup

 

He isn't Britain's best ever amateur though.

 

Best Amateur in history for Gb Euro gold world Sliver Olympic gold medal winner

 

Best is matter of opinion but he is the most successful in gb history

 

Would say Frankie Gavin's is slightly better, 2 time ABA champion, EU Bronze and Gold at Lightweight and Light Welter, Commonwealth Games Gold and World Amateur champion and I think he brought a medal home from every tournament he fought in for England with the exception of the 2006 Europeans.

 

I think Gavin was a better slight more skilled amatuer, but you'd have to say that what Campbell achieved at amatuer level was superior IMO.

His European Championship gold is a much more prestigious and harder to win competition than the EU one that Gavin won, and he has a bronze in the EU to match Gavin bronze, then you add a silver in the worlds with a gold at the Olympics it outdoes Gavin for me.

 

Yh two great amas also tom stalker medal at every event
