Comments Thread For: George Kambosos-Devin Haney: Stats & Stakes

[Cypocryphy]

just watched the haney linares fight. haney clearly won convincingly against a top rated fighter. kambo fought a weight drained lopez and never hurt him though he did win the fight. kambo is kind of sloppy and won't be able to keep the bigger younger faster sharpshooter off of him. kambo has a huge heart but i think haney wins by SD

That wasn't the best Linares and Haney won by a round or two. He also hugged his way to the finish line. Don't know what fight you were watching.

Thank you!!!!

the main card is set to get underway at 10 a.m. Aest / 8 p.m. Et / 1 a.m. Bst with the main event ringwalks scheduled for 2 p.m. Aest / 11 p.m. Et / 4 a.m. Bst. These timings could change due to the length of the undercard fights.

Kambosos seems like a very uptight, nervous guy. But I think that's how he is, and wounds himself up for a fight I guess.

Maybe it's that Greek personality I don't know. He's got a lovely wife, kids and is so young. He can retire if he gets badly beaten by Haney, the money is good.

I am all the way for Haney. But why should a prizefighter of 28 retire just because of 1 loss? Even if he loses twice against Haney he can still make a lot of amount in the sport after Haney IMO.

Haney jab will win the fight.

Haney looks like he should win. But hoping for Rambo Kambo to pull it off once again.

Could you please call them to change the main event for 8:00 Eastern Time?
I feel I am about to go to sleep and it is only 2:28pm.

No confusion about the WBC belt. As the WBC mandatory, Haney was supposed to fight Luke Campbell for the vacant belt, but was denied that opportunity when the WBC allowed Lomachenko to take his place.

Lomachenko then refused to fight the Haney mandatory and petitioned for the WBC franchise belt. As a result, Haney became the WBC champion.

Interestingly enough, if Lomachenko had actually fought and beat Haney, he probably would have been better prepared for Teofimo Lopez...

Shock the world is what Haney will have to do.. Devin and his dad knew they would. have to take a awkward path to make a name and then make money. Devin is ducked by many. To become undisputed, those who ran from him will have to comet to him....... Good luck Devin, to simply beat. Kam at home won't be enough . A. KO or shut out will have to take place for you to win...

Oh. Okay. E2ngNoYXoAAAG8p.png
It was a fight that had a lot of back and forth. What I did notice after the Diaz fight was that Haney tends to slowdown toward the back half of the a fight, and he can't keep his distance as he was in the first half. It's a pattern. So I'm expecting the same this fight. Whether it costs him the fight is another story. But I think we see someone win this fight by a round and no more.
