      His losses came to Haney twice and Lomachenko. Guys like Kambosos and Tevin Farmer are proof that you can keep getting big fights even if you lose as long as you fight good opposition. Even Hughes, whom most thought deserved a win or a draw against Kambosos, was a quality opponent on neutral ground.

      Kambosos won 3 straight road fights against guys he should've lost to (Mickey Bey, Lee Selby, Teofimo Lopez). That's a very impressive run for a b-level guy. If he never wins another fight he'll still have far exceeded his talent level. He was the unified, lineal lightweight champion of the world.

      He's not a special fighter but he takes on big challenges and tries to win. So he has my respect.

        They should have rappeled off of the Empire State Building Aussie Style to see " Quien es el mas macho " as Lupe Contreras likes to say.

        ​​​​​​That would be such a blast to do. Count me in as long as I don't have to climb back up to go again.

          Hitchins UD by wide margin in a snoozer. I hope I'm wrong but flashbacks of Kambosos' ineffectiveness against Haney are conjured in my head when I think on this matchup.

            I really hope that you are wrong about it being a snoozer , but I'd bet Turkis favorite goat that your prediction will be right on the money.

              Kambo is as close to being shot without being shot - this fight will push him over the edge with a KD or two. He must have made a load of money from those 2 Haney fights - retire and enjoy life, do some media work

                Kambosos is gonna get whooped AGAIN but you have to admire his balls and willingness to face the best competition unlike most other fighter's.
