Campbell 3-2 up after the 1st round

 

if Joshua wins the Gold in London he can write his own cheque to turn pro.

 

6-5 to Campbell after the 2nd round. I think that Campbell is bossing this moving nicely keeping his opponent of balance not letting him set

 

PaddyPower offering 5/2 on Joshua if you're mad enough...

 

said this to my dad yesterday, would get similar figures to audley if not more

 

I think Campbells got this

 

Campbell wins 12-8 guaranteed a medal beats 2009 gold medal winner :happy

 

Get on, Luke!

12-8!

Beat the world number one and 2009 champ!

 

Interesting there is no running scoring in this, just at the end of each round-which doesn't exactly do itself any favours when it comes to impartiality.

Great win for Campbell there, the lad looks a bit special.

 

It is live on the telegraph website if anyone wants to watch, only just found it after campbells fight which is a bit ****, well done for winning a medal though great prospect

 

how are you guys watching it? is it on tv?

 

Made him look very ordinary as well whilst his opponent was trying to Arthur Abraham him Campbell was sticking and moving nicely keeping him at bay with the jab picking nice counters then disengaging.

On that performance I would fancy him to make the final

 

Ring B is on Boxnation, both rings are available on the Telegraph's website or gbsports.tv

Hopefully boxnation switch to ring A for this afternoon's session, lots of British interest there.

 

Could I ask you a favour mate...

I've been eyeballs out at work and just not been able to keep up.

If you get time, any chance you could do a run down of how all of Team GB have got on, please? (i.e. if they're out or if they're through, which stage).

If not, no worries pal

 

Im just off to work myself mate I finish at 8 so if you want I might be able to do something tonight
