Who does Anthony Crolla fight next? I don't want to see a rematch with Burns as I think Crolla won the last encounter convincingly. I would like to see him go for another World Title however is a domestic clash with Luke Campbell on the cards. This would make a great support fight on the Sheffield card in march and then the winner could go on to fight Mikey Garcia or Easter Jr for the Title.
Linares rematch looks likely next according to Hearn. not sure about where Crolla goes next though, Garcia or Easter would be ridiculous, I would say Beltran for the WBO but then that means he has Lomachenko after so I really don't know
I think Crolla v Campbell would be an undercard fight if not in Manchester or Hull. The only reason I mentioned Sheffield is because it is currently down as a PPV event so will need some big fights on the undercard as I presume Brook will be fighting an easy opponent on his comeback. If it is Crolla v Campbell then I would pick Crolla to win and then I would love to see a world title challenge in Manchester.
Oh sorry I didn’t realise it was PPV! It shouldn’t be. Scraping the barrel having Kel as a PPV fighter at the moment. I’d like to see Campbell - Crolla in Manchester as a stand alone Saturday fight night. I think Campbell wins. Maybe stoppage.
He'd have a good chance versus Easter, I think hes one ofthe weakest of the champs. Maybe Garcia will vacate cause hes facing Lipinets at 140. Or maybe he could just stay busy as the Campbell - Linares rematch could well happen next and Im sure Eddie would make Campbells first defence against Crolla if he wins.
Personally and probably being a little biased I wouldn't mind the Burns rematch, I don't think Crolla won all that convincingly, I had him up 5-1 after 6 but then 7 8 9 10 and 12 I felt Burns won with 11 being the deciding round, it wouldn't be the worst rematch in the world.
Agree with this breakdown of the first fight. Also a rematch would do good business at the box office, especially in Glasgow. Not sure about some of the other comments on this thread so far - Lomachenko fights at 130, Brook fight is on Sky Sports and there is no chance of Linares v Crolla 3 happening. No need for it.
I hope it ain't Linares again, he's just in a different league they could fight ten times and I'd back Linares ten times, some fighters just have anothers number.. That's the case here. Burns rematch wouldn't disappoint me. Flanagan would be a big fight.
There may be no chance of Linares Crolla 3 because obviously that would be silly. However I wouldnt mind seeing Linares Campbell 2....which I'm sure is what people are talking about....
