People are complaining too much about the scorecards. I had it 9-3. Itâs possible to give more rounds to Campbell, but itâs also possible to give even less rounds. There were two rounds I gave clearly to Campbell. Loma just got the better of him in most rounds. They werenât all blowouts, but Loma just did better.
Always reliable punch stats for the fight.

Lomachenko did some Harrison v Haye numbers in round one :S
Boxrec. Who is so accurate I am friends with 2 FLYWEIGHTS who arenât listed, well, one is sort of but they have his name and record wrong FFS. He wants proof, look up Edgard Figueroa on Boxrec, you wonât find him, you can find Edgar Figueroa, but as I said, his record is wrong, like his name. I can easily get Edgard on here to verify all that I am saying. Or if people want a quicker verification they can look up Edgard on Facebook and have immediate proof. But, this is the difference between people in boxing and people that trust Boxrec FFS.
Now he wants me to define little men, everyone knows little men are below 160. Itâs just Fennyâs typical distraction from him saying something we all know to be wrong so he changes it.

When you say "little men," it's anyone below 160? Everyone knows it? Whatdoyaknow! Learn something new everyday. Does that include 160? Fighters like Hagler, Hearns, Monzon, Toney, Hopkins, Roy, GGG, etc?
Feel free to provide an example of strength in depth? You've established we have anyone below 160 (or possibly 160) to work with? Cool.
Incidentally, the only great middleweight Latino I named - Monzon - fought just once in the States in a 100 fight career. He must have been crap, Ron.
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
Officially the only saddo who has had a girlfriend
Vasyl Lomachencko 116
Luke Campbell 111
Campbell should aim for a rematch with Linares

Edwards made a Hollywood performance out of it rolling around like that because he knew his only chance was a disqualification. He either wouldn't have been able to get up or didn't want to. If Martinez hadn't landed that last punch he'd have won the belt. Edwards won't fight him again.
No way was that acting? He wasn't being asked to perform Hamlet, he just looked hurt and rolled around a bit. Toddlers can pull that one off. If it really hurt he wouldn't have been rolling around on the floor. I'd love to see them fight again because he'd get blown out in a couple of rounds again but he won't take it.
Vasyl Lomachenko next fight: Josh Warrington welcomes bout â âIâd be a massive, massive underdog⌠but heâs no spring chickenâ
Josh Warrington has stated that he would be willing to welcome Vasyl Lomachenko back to featherweight, should the pound-for-pound king confirm a drop down.
In the aftermath of his win over Luke Campbell to unify three of the four lightweight belts, Loma discussed the option of moving to super-featherweight or even all the way back to featherweight next year.
If he does so, Leedsâ IBF world champion would relish the opportunity to test his skills and defend his belt against the 31-year-old Ukrainian phenom.
Warrington told a small group of reporters, including talkSPORT.com: âPeople have said to me, âWould you take that opportunity?â
âAnd they seem a bit surprised when I said, âYeah, why wouldnât I?â
âIâd be a massive, massive, massive underdog and I wouldnât be f***ing daft, Iâd be fighting one of the sportâs greats, but why wouldnât I want to test myself?
âHeâs a fantastic champion and a multi-weight champion, of course Iâd want to have a go. Heâs not a spring chicken and heâs not getting any younger.
âIâm not saying heâs past it or heâs on the slide because he looked red-hot against Luke Campbell.
âIt was fascinating to watch, as a boxing fan, how he implemented his game plan, he just changed what he had to do to break Luke Campbell down.
âIt was unbelievable, but if he came back to featherweight Iâd put my hand up.â
Warringtonâs desire to jump into a massive test against Lomachenko may be viewed as reckless by some, however, the 28-year-old has clearly grown somewhat frustrated by certain aspects of the sport in recent months.
At the start of 2019, he seemed destined to unify against a fellow featherweight world champion this year, but big fights have sadly eluded him owing to a variety of reasons.
âYou think everybody will want that opportunity,â he explained.
âDonât get me wrong, challengers want that opportunity because they want to have a go and try to get the gold, but the other champions are not always as enthusiastic as I am.
âA real legacy is defending your belt against as many other champions as you can. My first defence was against Carl Frampton then I had to fight my mandatory but after that if I could have had Leo Santa Cruz, Oscar Valdez and Gary Russell Jr I would, in any order.
âI was speaking to Frank about the next fight and he was telling me the other fighters donât want it. I was almost in tears to be honest, I was proper down because Iâd told my fans weâd done Leeds and weâd do America now. Frank said, âJosh, itâs not happening.â
âI was on my hands and knees but he said, âWhat more can I do?â I was thinking, âWhy do they not want the fight?â
âI donât want to have 20 defences just to pad out my record and get paydays. Get me the big fights against the champions.
âFighting the big names does something to me, when my backâs against the wall and people say I canât.
âIf I can go on and win another world title then feed me whoever you want. Feed me your Mick Conlans, feed me your up-and-coming prospects but let me have an opportunity to win another world title.
âFor me to go to my grave a unified champion, I can live off that for the rest of my life. But I donât want to come to the end of my career and wonder what if.
âAs a featherweight your career moves fast, you fight two or three times a year if youâre lucky.
âThe big fights take a lot of preparation and planning and I just want them now while I have momentum.â
