    FrWrren wanted it, Khan wanted it, Campbell heard about them calling him out, and was so insulted that it seemed like he was ready to get on a plane and teach this child some manners. I think FrWrren could have easily got him over, as Campbell was never a huge ticket seller, and would be up for the "easy pay day"

    Question is, would a pre-Roach Khan at 135 have stood a chance against a not so big hitting Campbell.

    Campbell was a spiteful hitter.

    Funeka knew how to use his range, and remains a better technician than Khan. Campbell had him all over the place (only reason he sneaked a decision IMO) and dropped him a few times.

    Khan would've had no chance at that point IMO.

    i never rated campbell late in his career he had 1 good shout against diaz, but he wasn't the same man from the casamayor fight, saying that though he sparks the lightweight version of khan even the one against Barrera. I think allot of mediocre fighters would have smashed a pre roach khan in his lightweight days, hell even superfeatherweights almost came close

    wasnt campbell also drained to **** though??

    i think at the time ****** said he felt Khan would be able to beat Campbell but the fighters coming through were to strong.
