  • I’m very keen on this fight. Kingry has been talking a big game and some of us would not mind seeing him on the canvas. I see this as a 50:50 fight.

  • 2 good fighters, Ryan’s first real test against a solid fighter. This has the potential to go deep and could be an exciting fight as both of these guys are always looking for the KO. My question is can Ryan focus on his training and not be too distracted from all his social media millennial BS to come in and do what he has the potential to do. If Ryan KOs Campbell, he moves up as a top tier contender. Many hope that Campbell exposes this young man.

  • I really hope Campbell annihilates “kingry”. The name Kingry is enough to piss me off let alone his lame social media posts. This kid looks flashy on the mitts and double end bag but then fights guys with no skill and doesn’t even look great beating them. Overrated for now. If he loses this fight it’ll be great.

  • I personally think Kingry will get the win. I imagine a left hook KO by round 9 or 10. BUT, dont get me wrong, i hope campbell can put it to this dude and drop him once or twice. His cockiness is definitely a drag for this youngster and needs to be put in check.

  • Kingry maybe something special. He reminds us of a young ODH in the way he can rely on that picture perfect left “hooker-cut” that can fire off short and crisp if an opponent dare steps in distance. His last KO should devastating power against a solid op. He will turn many of you off with his display of confidence. Simply, because most men never had confidence at all.

    • I agree NJ Boxing. That left hook of his is jus plain vicious. I say late round KO by Ryan because i have a feeling Campbell will start feeling a bit more confident in the later rounds and drop his guard and get caught by one of those powerful shots. Ryans speed and power are devistating. That is for sure

  • Kingry is a strange fighter nickname, so I will say Ray because “that’s what his momma named him!!”

    Anyhow, Ryan should win this fight if he does not get “drunk” off his growing popularity and if he does not underestimate Campbell. For the first (1st) half of the fight, Ryan will need to apply pressure with an authoritative jab, to get inside for early body punching. For the second (2nd) half of the fight, Ryan must maintain pressure behind a solid jab and combination punching to wear down Campbell.

    Ryan by late TKO or by UD.

  • Campbell’s really good but I think the 10 years age difference and Kingry’s explosive power may just be too much for him…
