    Kambosos win over Teofimo was a fluke, he got Teo at his worst

    Kambosos bought into his own hype and got out classed by Haney, i even bought into the kambosos hype, but Teofimo he fought had all types of issues heading into the fight. Id favor teofimo in a rematch at 140 pounds.

    I’m not so sure about that. Teo’s style plays into George’s hands plus Lomachenko in the second half of his fight was able to figure Teo out but took too long to do it(which George took note of)

        Oh. I have no doubt that Teofimo was not at his best when he fought Kambosos. I also think styles make fights BUT, Lopez fights better on the back foot than going forward (or pressing the issue). The way he fought Kambosos was all wrong. He had to let Kambosos initiate and then counter, not the other way around. That's when Lopez is at his best.

        So I think (1) Lopez was injured (2) Lopez had the wrong game plan and (3) Kambosos has a very good style for someone wanting to engage and exchange with him.

        After watching the Kambosos vs Haney fight again, you can see that Haney got caught a couple times in the beginning, and those were some of the rounds that Kambosos won. After that, Haney just used his jab and either moved away laterally or moved inside and clinched or held. So Devin put together a great game plan. No doubt with the help of Lee Wylie and Ben Davison. I believe those two were key in coming up with a way to defeat Kambosos.

            Too wanted to get a KO and it worked with George's counterpunching style.
