Gabriel Campillo

[CutMeMick]

Campillos got heart, I thought he beat Karo Murat.
He pressed the action more and looked for the fight coming forward.

He shocked me when he beat Garay I thought Garay would outbox for a clear UD but Campillo again with his will came forward and pressed on.

He's a fighter who lacks in the skills dept. but more them makes up for it with his heart and determination.

I almost missed this gem buried amid all the Pacquiao/Mayweather threads.

Campillo is the kind of guy you can't help but root for. He was unlucky to lose to Murat, but I thought both Garay & Shumenov would beat him, but he's just got a resilience to win or something, because he's got no natural gifts to speak of.

One of those fighters I'd be tempted to give a wild-card fighter of the year vote to, if only Pacquiao hadn't done so much.

Thats why I started this thread these working man type fighters never get the credit they deserve. They always get overshadowed by the moneymakers.
