Kambosos is good but I wonder if he can hurt Lopez.

[Drew Bundini Br]

19-0 w/10 Ko's. This kid is a safe fight for Lopez who talked all that sh#t about Tank,Haney,Stevenson & Garcia. GTFOH!!!

Pretty sure all belt holders know there is that pesky thing called MANDATORY.
That is how Errol Spence was able to get a shot and win a belt.
Let lopez fulfil his.
Kambosos has earned it whether you think he has no chance is irrelevant.
Bravo IBF.

Tank,Haney,Stevenson etc etc will be there. Not sure what all this impatience is about.

Lopez destroys kambossis... The only slum chance kambossis has is getting a gift decision in Australia... The robbery capital of the world..Tim tszyu will win a belt this way also but it won't be against the charlos

Easy KO for Lopez. Highlight reel set up. I hope Kambosos gets good money for his sacrifice.

they're bad rankings, cause nobody wants to fight for them cause of the responsibility it comes with it

Bingo !

The rankings are bad because the top prospects are paying sanctioning fees and fighting ranked matches for the WBC, WBA, and WBO. I guess the next day weigh ins, the lack of 7 different versions of the IBF world title per weight class, and the fact that you actually have to fight your mandatory turn some fighters / managers / promoters away.

If I was a fighter that’s probably the first place I’d try to win a title because I know for sure if I became the top contender I’d get my shot.

Who wants to see this? Think Teo will vacate?

No way. He'll make good money in Australia from this fight.

Has Kambosos earned it though? Or if paying os earning then I guess so. Sure a fighter has to make the mandatory but no one can argue that sometimes the rankings are garbage. And Teo may be moving up soon so the idea that all these fights will be there...maybe not

[Tlows1]

Actually I hope so for not fighting Lomo again, I will never give him respect until he does

[PunchyPotorff]

The best of Kambosos will be a handful for Lopez... but then... which Kambosos shows up? Both are very busy fighters, but IMO Lopez is more refined. I think Lopez takes advantage of Kambosos' leaky defense and will stop him mid rounds. But it will be an interesting fight while it lasts. Then maybe we get the Loma rematch? Then after Loma loses twice to Lopez... what excuses will he have?
