Josh Taylor

[Thecat23]

This is a joke of a fight to be honest. Complete mismatch!

[Pretty Boy]

Campos looks like he doesn't want to go out for another round. Thought he was staying on the stool for a second there.

Early signs that Taylor has this within 4 for me. Campos doesn't look like an inside fighter at all and that's where the fights being fought.

Strange end - was going to happen eventually

[RossScott1991]

That guy is what you call...a bum!

[Thecat23]

Well that was ****. Taylor keeps it professional but I bet he could have ended that in the first if he really wanted.

[Jones28]

Blink and you'll miss it! Total mismatch.

[Oscar T Grouch]

Usual case of a last minute substitute not being up to it. Taylor has way too much class for Campos. Soto would have been a good test for JT.

Good refereeing there. Campos showing absolutely no desire to carry on the fight

Farce of a fight really. Campos didn't want to be there in that last round and practically sat down as soon as he took a half decent shot.

Suppose when it was all arranged at short notice you can only fight what's available.

That was a mismatch

Yes he saved him from any serious harm - but Josh didn't seem to land anything to heavy when the guy went down

My Spanish isn't quite good enough for lip reading (yet ) but at the end of round 2 it looked like he was telling his coach he didn't want to continue. Think he knew he had no chance and instead of fighting on and taking unneccessary damage he took the easy/sensible route of quitting whilst it was still his choice.

Ref doesn't call it and he's out cold by round 4/5 imo.

Guy didn't want to go out for the 3rd round. Spat his gumshield out at the end of the 2nd, sat with his head down and took an age to get off his stool at the start of the 3rd. First chance to get out of there he took.

Take nothing away from Taylor who done what he had to do.

Correct nothing heavy there at all, the boy seemed happy to just get out that ring. His body language as well told a story he looked petrified!

I hate this clown of an announcer. He was pish at the Groves Eubank fight as well.

Total cheese merchant. Appalling.

[ballengeich]

It looked a mismatch, but please don't criticise Campos who was the guy who could have been badly hurt.

If you're going after someone go for Campos's handlers who should have withdrawn him after round 2, or above that the promoter who brought in an inadequate replacement when Taylor's original opponent had to pull out through injury.

I agree. I thought he was complaining about a push or a back of the head shot before getting right back up.

Looking at the replays again, he was also taking a knee due to simply being overwhelmed. It was a total skill mismatch and I think he knew it (see my other reply). Someone taking your back in a fight is usually a sign of much superior skill.

Add to that, the other knockdowns were mostly due to his legs being unable to keep up with the pace of the fight, which meant his balance was everywhere and that puts your body/head in really awkward positions to counter. At that stage staying upright is difficult.

Nah not for me I think he’s quality. Really got the crowd going in Riga for Briedes/Usyk

[Sauzee16]

Campos was brought in at the last minute to stop a refund in tickets was he not?

[Baader]

Not his fault but Campos should not have been in the same ring as JT.

Josh is very heavy handed and his body shots are bombs. World title at ER before the year ends please Barry.

I think he had more to offer but never looked keen from the start. Am I right in saying he's training for a fight at the moment and seemingly in good shape and that's why they threw him in?

Is it possible he didn't want to risk himself for his own, more important, fight?

In theory I want this but want a good playing surface more so they can have the fight at Ainslie Park.

Could he not fight Cum Dog next
Would have given him a better fight

Gutted for Easton, really fancied him tonight to win! Been training very hard for this fight. I’m sure he’ll come back stronger.

Just been told that Easton has lost his licence due to assault charge.

Was shocked when I first heard this.

He’s a good lad and, whilst not condoning what he has done in any way, I can only assume it’s been a moment of madness. A timely reminder that every action has consequences I suppose.
