If you’re a fan of the fighting game, you know that one of the most thrilling experiences is when a massive underdog finds a way to beat the person everyone thought would win. And if you're looking to live stream Lomachenko vs. Campbell, you've come to the right place.
Today (Saturday, Aug 31), you might have the opportunity to experience that, when the U.K.’s own Luke Campbell competes against the WBO and WBA world lightweight champion Vasyl Lomachenko.
By nearly all accounts, Lomachenko is one of the best fighters in the world. And although Campbell has been coming on strong, he’s a decided underdog, with few people thinking he can take down Lomachenko.

That means the card actually starts at 1 p.m. Eastern (10 a.m. Pacific). The fights will then continue on through the afternoon, culminating in the Lomachenko vs. Campbell fight.
