Undisputed IBF, WBA, WBO and WBC Franchise lightweight champion George “Ferocious” Kambosos is expecting 60,000 fans to attend his clash with WBC lightweight champion Devin Haney on June 5 (June 4 in the USA) at the Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
“I love fighting in America,” Kambosos told the Herald newspaper. “I love being that road warrior, but I’ve paid my dues and earned my stripes. It’s time that these guys get out of their comfort zone and do it the way I did it. It’s different because they’re getting out of their comfort zone but have got all the luxuries. They get millions of dollars to come over here. When I went and did it, I was fighting for $5,000 or $10,000 max.
“By the time my camp was done, I lost money. It’s a different feeling, but they will still feel what it’s like coming over here and fighting against all odds.”
“I can’t wait. I’m happy he’s coming, but this will be a whole new thing for him. This isn’t fighting in Vegas in front of 2,000 people, this is fighting in Australia against the undisputed champion in front of 60,000 people.”
Really tough fighter Kambosos is. His trading punches style though is not going to keep working and will shorten his boxing career. At least he will force Haney to make a fight of it and make the fight exciting. Looking forward to this.
Haney all day. Georgie is tough though, I give him that, most colonizers are.
I am so proud of my Colonizer heritage. God Gold and Glory. If it wasn’t for us most people would still be running around half naked sacrificing virgins.
Kambosos is very aggressive which is poison for black fighters they don’t know how to fight toe to toe
Agression gets you caught! Kambosos is a decent fighter! Haney is on a different level! Can Haney win a decision down under? Yessir! Decisively!
What are you talking about black fighters sound a little bit Racist
Hagler vs Hearns. Roger Mayweather “the Mexican assassin”, Sugar Ray Leonard. Are you finished or are you done spreading your lies and racism? It sounds like to me you’re making an excuse as to why Kambosos will win. Funny because Kambosos didn’t fight Lopez toe to toe but was on his bicycle.
He’s right. The more I hear from George the more I like him. Hope he continues to drive his success in the ring.
You deserve this Champ!! Call ALL THE SHOTS while you can!!! Kambosos by late round TKO
Stomp his ass brother he is the PUNK that said no white boy will ever beat him PPSSHH show his ass what a CHAMP IS make him look stupid I have never thought he was more than a b fighter you will destroy him stay calm though
Typical, so you’re playing the race card.
I hope Haney takes the titles from this clown. Haney actually wants to fight the best without the b.s. This dude was trying his best to dodge Haney. Haney better goes over there with the intention of doing his usual boxing he’s a darn fool. He will not get the decision no matter how easy he makes it look.
