Comments Thread For: Hearn Eyes Devin Haney vs. George Kambosos Clash

[BoxingIsGreat]

If he doesn't care about the belts why is he fighting for a vacant Regular belt seemingly every other damn week?

Have you ever seen him talk or get excited about these bogus belts? That regular shit is his team's idea.

Kinda wanna see Haney & Tank both get upset lol then Ryan Garcia whenever he stops being such a pu$$$y with his “anxiety”.

But on the other had I wanna see Haney vs Loma. So if Haney beats JoJo like we all expect, he or Loma can fight and beat Kambosos & then fight each other ? Kam is insisting on his next fight being in Australia & I feel like Loma would be more willing to travel there than Haney. Haney has sometimes displayed an overinflated ego. Lomas fought his whole career on foreign land & traveled to England to get that WBC.

I have mad respect for Kam I just don’t think he’s holding those titles for very long. Haney & Loma are bad styles for him. I feel like that Teo win was the perfect storm of him fighting the fight of his life, Teo severely underestimating him & being drained. Good riddance to Teo though, got what he deserved

Cryan Garcia and Lopez both ducked Haney. kambosos won't and 135 will be unified across the belt board

He doesn't give a crap about Kambosos or the corrupt belts. Has he even said anything about it?

He hasn't said anything about it. But I gotta be unbiased. Just because I like Gervonta, I can't suddenly want him to fight Kambosos.

Though, if I were Mayweather or Gervonta, that's the fight I am doing everything to make. But for Kambosos? He should aim for undisputed, unified champion. It'll be a cap stone to a shocking rise to stardom before the inevitable knock off.

Also, not caring about belts is all cool until you have to care about the belts. You don't reach Mayweather's level by not winning the belts. He beat Baldomir for a reason. That reason got him De La Hoya. Which then established him as the cash cow. It's all in the blueprint.

Ok lets get to the "side of the street" politics.....is KAMBO signed to TR or did Arum have soooo much confidence that Teo was gonna run over him that he didn't care .... were there OPTIONS????? Inquiring minds would like to know...If not he has big potential fights with Devin and Ryan on DAZASTER....big fights at 135 on TR....but nothing bigger than a Showtime PPV against TankTank. BIG MONEY! Damn Teo's dumb ass fuqed the money up for TR by losing all those belts. Now his drunk delusional father crying about they should've never left TR and they're going back to get PPVs .... hahahahahahahahaha .... Ol' Bobbie boy bout to teach this kid a real good lesson about loyalty!

That picture looks so cheesy, look at Haneys expression.

But yeah it is the obvious. Haney or Loma should be favored if they pull through next. Kambosos might have a chance against Haney but none against Loma. Then again I predicted 1st rd KO for Teo so who knows with this dude if he keeps the humble attitude.

It's the only way to clean up the Franchise mess at 135

Correct. The WBC should be pushing this hard out of shame.

Regular vs Franchise Boxer and retire the WBC Franchise belt at this weight.

You'd think after this they'd be very reluctant to do it again.

Imagine announcing a lifetime designation that represents an individual's sustained dominance at an elite level... and within 18 months it's sitting around the waist of the relatively unheralded George Kambosos and there's a relatively unproven guy wearing the Championship belt.

Absolute clowns.

[steeve steel]

The fight needs to be in Australia, so that kind of limits the choice of opponents; Garcia or Gervonta won't go. But Haney will! Or Diaz.. if he beats Haney, which is not impossible.

Kambosos will beat Haney.

Kambosos has only had three fights at the world level but he's won them all and stepped up each time:

He beat American former IBF lightweight champion Mickey Bey (23-2-1-1, coming off a win in a tuneup after a layoff) in the US
He beat British former IBF featherweight champion Lee Selby (28-2, coming off a win over Ricky Burns) in the UK in an eliminator
He beat American reigning WBA, WBO, IBF, Ring, and lineal lightweight champion Teofimo Lopez (16-0, coming off the Lomachenko win) in the US

The next time he steps into the ring he'll be even better. First he sparred Pacquiao and then he fought three straight step up fights against current or former champions on the road. He's getting better as he goes along.

The bold: Me neither. I don't like mismatches much. Beating Lopez didn't change my opinion of Kambosos at all. He's still a bum, IMO.
