    Luke Campbell ordered to fight undefeated Ryan Garcia by WBC for ‘interim’ lightweight belt

    Luke Campbell has been ordered to fight Ryan Garcia by the WBC for their ‘interim’ lightweight belt.

    The 32-year-old had been due to meet Javier Fortuna in the bout, which will double as a world title final eliminator, but the Dominican boxer will face Jorge Linares in August instead.



    Number three ranked challenger, Garcia, will now get the chance to fight the British boxer for the ‘interim’ belt.

    Eddie Hearn confirmed the news on Twitter with the winner then mandatory to face current lightweight champion Devin Haney, who is 24-0.

    Hearn tweeted: “With Fortuna pulling out of the Luke Campbell fight, we have just been notified that the WBC have ordered Campbell v Ryan Garcia. Great fight!”

    It makes the situation in the WBC lightweight division all the more muddled as Vasyl Lomachenko is the current ‘franchise’ champion, Haney is the champion and then the winner of Campbell vs Garcia being ‘interim’ champion.

    Campbell’s last fight came against Lomachenko in August when he lost by unanimous decision.

    Garcia, 21, is currently 20-0 and tweeted about his excitement for the matchup.

    He wrote: “I’m finally getting to fight a southpaw, my favourite fighters to fight! Bring it on Luke Campbell.”



    Garcia has extra incentive to beat Campbell due to his longstanding rivalry with Devin Haney, with the pair facing each other six times as amateurs.

    Haney told DAZN earlier this year: “That’s the fight that the fans would love to see.

    ”We’re both 21 years old, we’re both making crazy noise, we fought in amateurs multiple times. Everything just adds up. It makes it a huge fight.”

    I doubt it happens, but I think Campbell might be a bit much at this point. I love these kinds of fights though. I want young fighters testing themselves.

    Seems like a long shot but I like Campbells style and experience against Garcia. Ryan seems to have put the cart ahead of the horse demanding career high money and seeing a date or two fall out consequently. For a guy who was just talking up a well idled and smaller Mares, Garcia better tighten up if he faces Campbell.

    It's so perfect it obviously wont happen. A young "superstar" vs proven world-class "veteran" where both gain massively from winning. A proper hindsight fight (everyone always knew the winner was the business... or pony ).

    Great fight and as Matchroom and Golden boy are both on DAZN shouldn't be hard to make.
