Kambo decision close
this is a tricky one due to all of additional factors
I don't think bad judging will play a factor. None of the judges have egregious scores for big fights - who knows for local fights and they do judge hundreds of fights. Roussell seems to favour boxing skills more than heavy punching. He had Brook up before he was KO'd in both the Golovkin and Crawford fights. He's also scored a draw in an international fight.
Haney doesn't have the best chin. As for his hugging it's about time he had a point deducted for that - it's blatant and over the top.
Haney's pre-fight preparation must have suffered some with the visa hassles.
Haney's first big fight overseas? Jetlag?
Kambo's first big fight at home - how will he handle the expectations/pressure to deliver?
Then Top Rank forcing Haney to sign with them - do they see him prevailing over two fights?
The fact that there is a 2nd fight in the contract is normal - but that it's mandated to be in Australia AND team Haney accepted it?
I can see a majority decision for Kambo or a majority draw
