I give Diaz about as good a chance as Kambosos to defeat Haney. In my mind it's about 30/70 in favor of Haney.
Neither Diaz nor Kambosos are big punchers but then Linares isn't either. Haney is by far the better boxer but that chin though...
Devin Haney by easy 12-0 win. Jabs, right crosses, keeping the distance, not allowing Kambosos to get inside or land anything. It will be an easy fight for him, Teo was a fraud.
I don't know when you guys will understand this.
Promoters DON'T CARE ABOUT HARDCORE FANS.
CASUALS. BRING. MONEY.
Without them, you don't have a boxing business.
In the business of boxing, we need personalities. Characters. People who can draw money.
Loma is not a character - but he's already known outside of the hardcore. His skill has already been on display. People know he will come to fight and he will make it exciting.
Nobody knows who the F Haney is - and if they bothered watching any of his fights, they would immediately turn it off. He does not excite casuals, he's a boring fighter. It doesn't matter if it's Australia, he'll stink the joint out and cause fans to stop dialing in. That's the truth we both know. Besides, we also know Haney isn't going overseas. Loma will happily do.
You make a lot of assumptions for a 21 year old boxer. Haneys been chasing mandatories while says he wouldn’t go to Australia? He’s young and been chasing fights for the last year. The linares fight was a quality fight and as his level of comp has improved his fights have been more exciting. You’re writing off the future to hold on to the past. Loma is old he lost his belts and he doesn’t need to be fast forwarded to the top again. Let these young dogs get a chance
Kambosos' victory really jolts the division because he's not affiliated with any of the major banners (I think he's with DiBella?).
I will be honest, Kambosos never really impressed me prior to his fight with Lopez. He seemed tough and solid but basic to my eyes. I think alot of factors came into how things unfolded last night but Kambosos is obviously better than I gave him credit for.
I really wouldn't mind seeing him in against Haney, Garcia, Tank, Loma or Diaz should he win against Devin. Let's see what happens...
I would love to see Haney vs Kambosos next!!! Who wins that fight? Does it happen next??
- -Kambo could fight his grandma and make more money than against Big Lips Flapping Haney and his fat Daddy.
What grade U in?
The lightweight is a war zone, nobody is safe. Lomachenko lost to Lopez who lost to Kambosos.
If Kambosos is not stupid, he will take the biggest fight he can get. That is obviously Haney or Lomachenko.
Shakur has said he would go to Aus to fight Kambosis.
Guys say lots of things. What their managers and promoters go with is another story.
Fighting abroad for a would title in his first fight in a new weight class would be badass, but probably not the kinda move we see these days.
The point is that Teo hits harder than a washed up Linares. A lot worse would have happened to Haney if Teo was hitting him.
Not a pressure fighter? Did you not watch the fight or any of his fights? ...Kambosos coming forward and standing in the pocket the entire time...
Clearly you've never seen Haney fight either... he fights with his hands down and gets hit all the time...
Haney fights far longer than Teo does and he jabs to open up everything. Teo got caught from outside all night and that has never ever been haneys problem, linares hit him inside during an exchange. And kambosos did not pressure Teo he stayed in the pocket there’s a difference, Teo went forward often and kambosos just took advantage of poor discipline FROM THE OUTSIDE. You should watch more boxing.
Nobody knows who Haney is. That's one.
Two, Loma is still regarded by the media as a P4P fighter.
A Loma fight draws money.
What you're saying is the same as saying that Chocolatito didn't deserve a shot at Estrada because he lost twice to Srisaket. Right?
You know and I know and that’s a good fight.
two, Haney has a belt and doesn’t need subjective acclaim. No he’s really a belt holder.
If Haney goes to Australia they’ll fill a stadium whether Haneys known or not and it’s a fight that’s deserved not a fight for the casuals. This is what boxing needs not popularity contests. When did we turn into pansy ass groupie boxing fans?
Haney takes him, Kambosos benefited from facing the worst ever version of Lopez tonight, and had a miracle getting out of the 10th.
He's a cinderella man but the next elite level fighter he faces isn't going to slack off and expect to win in 3rd gear.
Yeah he really let him off the hook in the 10th. His body and reflexes were dead after Teo rocked him. Teo really was pushing the initiative, looked like a slow plodded like Wilder.
Nobody knows who Haney is.
- -Some of the boys here love Haney's flapping lips, hence his fan club.
Kambosos and even defrocked Teo have better fish to fry than Haney and his Blubber Daddy.
Haney was stumbled, kambosos was dropped. Kambosos also isn’t a pressure fighter and Teo sat there with his hands down ALL NIGHT. Great fight for the Aussie, but it doesn’t mean anything for Haney.

Lomachenko is the deserving contender for those titles, after all he was the one that collected all of them.
He didn’t collect the IBF belt though
I think Kambosos vs Haney is an interesting fight
Kambosos has really quick hands and is very mobile. I think Haney will struggle to keep an output as high as Kambosos in a relatively boring fight
Loma should gun for the winner, all 4 belts instead of 3
Loma is greater than Haney and I dont dislike him.
I think both UD Kambosos but the aussie has a better chance against Haney.
Also how come that Loma doesnt deserve a title shot? He lost all belts in a close fight in which he had to give the contender money to it to happen, then was denied a rematch, then destroyed Nakatani and probably will perform against Commey (yet to see).
Haney was gifted a belt and has a weak resume so far (the Jojo scalp would push him) plus he will not go to Australia and brings less money.
Lets see what TR and Dazn offer.
Loma doesn’t deserve a title shot bc he didn’t put a rematch clause in his contract meaning he underestimated Teo. He fought lazy and is the reason he lost his belts, if he would have came to fight like a professional that contest isn’t close. Haney can’t get a soul in the ring to fight with him, his mandatories ducked him blatantly. You can’t compare lomas situation to Haney in terms of getting fights.
Haney was hurt against Linares and I don't think he could have stood up to the punches Teo was landing the way Kambosos did. Now I'm not saying Kambosos will have the power to do the same to Haney, but we also know Haney won't have the power to keep Kambosos off of him. It would be a very competitive fight.

dare to be great against a fighter with two losses? Rather than face undefeated fighters with belts? Hmmm. Loma ain’t as great as he’s made out to be and I still don’t think he deserves a title shot.

If I was Kambosos I would force everyone to come to Australia if they want the fight. George came over here so its only fair.
Sadly, I doubt anyone's going to Australia until they relax the quarantine rules.
