They underestimate Campa, but looking at the statistics of Campa it is quite good, Campa has only 1 loss though it was a TKO, while Lopez got 1 loss via split decision, in terms of KO ratio, I think the percentage is close. And if ever, I think Campa is much more dangerous than Lopez because Campa is a natural on that weight division.

Though after reading your reply, there's a thought that springs in my mind that the fight might possibly be rigged. I hope I am wrong though, and I want to see an upset win in this fight.

They really underestimated Pedro Campa in my opinion and the guy is no pushover, Teofimo Lopez should not think that this is a fight he can win easily because in my thoughts I think it is not, moreover Pedro Campa pretty much has the experience in fighting on that division so Teofimo Lopez better not think that this is just a walk in the park kind of fight,

Well, if this is a rigged fight then I think I will be eluding in betting for it, and right now if we look at the stake odds it is not very profitable to bet for Teofimo Lopez but for Pedro Campa, it is really tempting to risk because the odds on stake are 1.04 for Lopez while 10.00 for Campa

Well this is good but as you have said Fulton will have to fight Murodjon Akhmadaliev. But then again, there is the boxing politics, Fulton is a PBC fighter, Akhmadaliev is with Matchroom, so there will be a lot of negotiations behind and I don't know if this can be made. So this is going to be an obstacles, as I would see that more likely it could be Inoue vs Akhmadaliev that can be made first if Inoue decided to go up in weight class and immediately fight for the belt.

Well, it can really go the other way around but it will be on the management decision if they will continue a fight like that, but we are just wishful thinking for a certain fight like that to happen, and because we are just speculating, all we can do right now is just wait and hope, because I also want a Naoya Inoue VS Stephen Fulton if it's possible,

What do you guys think about this? Nonito Donaire won’t retire, plans move to 115 for Chocolatito Gonzalez or Kazuto Ioka next.

Quote

“It’s a really good fight with Chocolatito and people are saying it would be ‘legend versus legend,’” Donaire said through Probellum. “It’s a big fight. But I do like the Ioka fight as well because I want to get that title and become a five-division champion and then move back up to 118 and go for the undisputed crown once everything else is open and I get another opportunity for it.”

So Nonito Donaire will not retire, he will continue with his career and he will defy the odds by going down to 115 lbs and then look for money fights like against Chocolatito and Ioka.

Do you think this is a good idea? as we all know that he is already 40 yrs old and it's really hard for the body as we age?

That is good news if he's not planning on retiring yet, but against a Naoya Inoue that is now in his prime, we can say that Nonito Donaire is already depleting, because of his age, and he can not compete anymore with higher boxers in my opinion, but maybe we can be surprised with his return to the 118 once again, but who know all we can do is anticipate and wait,
