    Agree with this. Don't want to rule out Haney getting robbed down under, but think Haney matches up well here and should out box Kambosos

      I thought he won all 3 fights comfortably, won at least 8 rounds in each fight.

      If he deserves the win this time I hope its a ud.

        Kambosos had never been anywhere close to the world level before he fought Bey and Selby. Those were his step-up fights. He improved vastly after the Bey fight, then he improved vastly again after the Selby fight to have his career best performance against Lopez.

        He's had his career best performance against his career best opponent three fights in a row.

        I think it's a mistake to expect a worse performance against Haney. If Haney's going to win he's going to have to beat the best version of Kambosos we've seen so far.

          Well the judges like to give it to Kambosos via SDs... At least he was not robbed with his victories... I predict Kambosos defeats Haney with again another SD...

              There's an obvious reason he keeps getting split decisions
              Mickey Bey fight - unknown Australian B-side fighting the American former IBF lightweight champion in the US
              Lee Selby fight - unknown Australian B-side fighting the British former IBF featherweight champion in the UK
              Teofimo Lopez fight - unknown Australian B-side fighting the American reigning unified, lineal lightweight world champion in the US

              Now he's the A-side fighting in his home country.

                - - Finally you get something right save the additional plum of fighting in his home city of Melbourne.

                  Haney is slick enough to get the win, but its got to be clear as close wont do it.

                    Good fight

                    haven’t been that impressed with Haney’s performances in some fights and he’s there to be hit. Haney is near as slick or as as defensively sound as some make him out to be and Kambosos has great timing, probably not the biggest puncher but good enough to get respect, especially with his timing.

                    everyone on here said Kambosos was going to get flattened by Lopez, I was one of the only ones on here that said he had a good style to deal with Lopez. Win or lose, It wasn’t ever going to be the fight people expected.

                    Unless Haney up’s his game, I’m going Kambosos in a close but fair decision
