The 2012 Olympic gold medallist, Luke Campbell, fell short of adding that ‘W’ to his professional record against Ryan Garcia. ‘Cool Hand’ stunned ‘KingRy’ and his fans when he dropped him in just the second round of the fight. However, Campbell failed to build on this and got TKO’ed in round 7.

The Brit didn’t quite sync with the judging of this contest. A judge named Rey Danseco scored the second round as 10-9 for Campbell, which left the boxing fans astonished.

In a chat with Sky Sports, ‘Cool Hand’ shed light on this dreadful loss and what he felt was “biased” judging.

Campbell said, “I mean if you’re not looking at the scorecards because they were so biased anyhow, but if he was actually watching the fight, if anything it was, there was nothing in the fight. Some people might have had me just slightly ahead, some people might have had me slightly behind.”

“But there was literally nothing in the fight until up that point,” he concluded.

Glenn Feldman, Mark Lyson, and Rey Danseco judged this highly anticipated clash. Though the fight ended with a TKO in round number 7, Garcia led the scorecards till then with 58-56, 58-55, and 58-55.

Can Luke Campbell beat Ryan Garcia in a rematch?

Ryan Garcia was the toughest test to date for Britain’s Luke Campbell. Many of his critics wrote him off against ‘King Ry’ but Campbell shut them all by sending Garcia to his knees for the first time in his professional career.

He put on a hard-fought show for his fans, but became another victim of Garcia’s devastating power. ‘Cool Hand’ definitely has a lot to take from this fight. He read Garcia right from the first gong and stood substantially well against him.

If he polishes his current skill-sets and defense, unquestionably he can stun ‘KingRy’ once again if the duo ever clashes in the future.
