    It appears Luke Campbell was steered to Commonwealth by Eddie to avoid clashing with Cardle for the British, althought through twitter it would suggest Campbell still wants the British before moving on.

    Joe Gallagher appears anything but keen for the bout, will Eddie strike a deal for the draw with Dodd to count towards Cardle's defences which would see him retain and relinquish leaving Campbell to box for the vacant title, throw the 2 together against Galllaghers wishes or get Luke a big big fight to take his mind off the British?

    Campbell beats cardle imo

    the difference between the two is attitude

    cardle is happy with joe ticking over

    Campbell got beat got in Rubio moved stateside

    just shows the level of ambition , but that's just my two cents that's worth nothing

    I agree on who wins, which is why I think when Cardle rose to Campbell on twitter, Joe was quick to try and steer away from it.

    I just wonder will Luke force Eddie to make it, can Eddies money talk and get BBOC to agree Cardle has the 3 defences in or will Luke get something so big he has to leave the British behind for good

    i imagine luke and scotty alike both want full honours they don't cast themselves of the amir type fighter

    imo that's called serving you apprentship and I a great spring board bringing with it vast pro experience

    that is what makes brook so good imo even thogh he hung round that level a little to long

    Campbell would probably outclass Cardle easily but I don't think anyone should shy away from a fight with Luke now that we've seen how easily he can be dropped. Anyone British level and upwards should fancy getting in there and landing really.

    It sounds like Lukes ideal plan is to win the title then move straight on to world level he just want's to win it.

    Cardle as much as it could be an all day argument if he deserved it I think the draw is a defense he walked to an out of the ring as the champion, so for me should have it outright now. He has stated will move on as soon as got it outright.

    I think the thing with Campbell is anybody around British level will also realise they could be made to look very stupid against Campbell, looking what just happened to Matthews would have to make you think twice before throwing a British level lad in with him. Which I think is what Gallagher is thinking and love him or hate him he knows his boxing

    oGood call. Has cardle got a contract with MR or is a fight by fight deal?

    Am not too sure mate I heard a rumour about Hearn being pissed off because his last few fights he has sold hardly any tickets and am talking less than 50.

    Gallagher loves to harp on about unbeaten records so doesn't like his lads fighting anyone with a pulse - until they lose in a "world" title fight.

    He sold 26 in Scotland but to be fair if your British level then suddenly boxing a 6 rounder with a journeyman most of your fans will probably be waiting for the next one

    Judging by Campbellls twitter he wants Cardle Feb/March for British then give that up for Flanagan fight in the summer
