    Haney will have zero problems out boxing Kambosos apparently, thanks for the laugh kev.

    Win or lose and i think lose, Haney will be in his most difficult fight of his career so far.

      I can only dream that Kambosos is not only his most difficult fight of his career, but also comes out victorious in an amazing performance.

      You are welcome for the laugh, but we’ll revisit this discussion later, after the fight.

        When Haney moves up to 140 I think he is going to be dropping and stopping guys. He's not a big puncher but I feel making 135 depletes him a lot.
        His punch resistance, his stamina at the back end of fights and his power.

        He is known as a bit of a puncher in the gym.

        The best time to catch him is now while that weight cuts taking a lot out of him.

        People call him pillow-fists but nobody is walking through him and that is him depleted.

        We've seen it many times with guys like Crawford for example, once they stop depleting themselves they can punch a bit, Haney won't be any different.

          Haney has signed a multi fight deal with Top Rank. Kambosos isn’t a Top Rank fighter and can take the belts if he wins.

          Top Rank will rob Kambosos even in Australia if they have to. Promoter power is all that matters. Arum already said Top Rank have overseen the choice of judges.

            The father of all hardcore boxing the great Ted Atlas' comment about Haney/Kambosos centered around Haney's lack of power. So how is this even considered as something unusual?

              Kambosos Junior battered Lopez Junior, the damage he inflicted on Lopez was horrific.

              I don't think Kambosos Junior is a big puncher, but he can inflict damage and seems very spiteful.

              You get point scoring fighters, who seem to not cause much damage. I would not put Kambosos Junior in this bracket.

              But yes, as I said before neither fighter is a monster puncher etc.

                Sadly, I was right.

                  Haney's jab must have enough pop to it though.

                    I was wrong for sure about it being his hardest fight, haney wasn't great but did what he had to do. Kambosos could have done more, a disappointing fight but the right winner.

                    9-3 or 10-2

                      That kid is only 23. He's going to be VERY dangerous.
