WBC lightweight champion Devin Haney and the undisputed WBA, IBF, WBO, WBC (franchise) lightweight champion George “Ferocious” Kambosos have exchanged blows on Twitter blaming each other that no progress has been made for a Kambosos vs. Haney bout to be held in Australia in 2022.
If the fight takes place in Australia, I see Kambosos winning a close but unanimous decision (115-113, 115-114, 115-114).
Jody, Can that score be possible? In a 10-9 scoring round, 115 means that George wins 7 rounds (out of 12) so the most Haney can get is 113.
To get a 115-114 score that means you have a 10-10 round. I doubt WBC/WBA/IBF/WBO will allow that.
There’s nothing wrong with even rounds, nothing against them in the rules.
Haney is a joke, I hope Kambosos smashes his face in!!
HEARNS PUT AN OFFER ON THE TABLE… EVERYBODY KNOWS KAMBOSOS WANTS THE FIGHT AT HOME… SOUNDS TO ME LIKE HEARNS IS THE PROBLEM… KAMBOSOS SAID THEY HAVE A STADIUM THERE WAITING… SO HEARNS GET OFF YOUR BUTT GET UP THE MONEY AND LET THESE TWO FIGHT!!!
Talk is cheap and nothing else. Sign the contracts and fight…Bottom line.
YUP I AGREE SCOOBY 100%
Just seen on Reddit that Rolly wants the fight.
This fight will happen, and in Australia, where the visitor has to win all the12 rounds, staggers the opponent couple times to have a chance to win by split decision, otherwise if he loses 2 or 4 rounds, not matter how bad he battered the opponent, the veredict will be an adverse UD loss. For better information, ask the Filipino senator Mr. Manny Pacquiao.
No way mate, you get a knockout over here and you’ll lose by UD. We’ve got the game sorted at home, same as every other country, quit your moaning
I’m assuming they’re doing this because they’ve come to an agreement and…. this is just how they promote fights now – on twitter. I’m expecting them to announce this one pretty soon.
Haney is EXTREMELY overrated. He thinks he’s Mayweather, but he’s not. Fights very scared and get buzzed by a lot of his opponents. Huge KO for Kambosos, he won’t you run.
Kambosos is in his right to defend his belts at home, let’s see if Haney backs up his talk and goes to the champions backyard.
You won’t see Devin Haney fighting in Australia. Kambosos can make. Couple of defenses in Australia, then vacate and go up to 140. Haney vs Kambosos can happen later at 140, those guys probably take losses by late 2023. Haney should fight Tank, there will be his loss. If Tank couldn’t get up for that fight, what fight could he get up for?
Oh crap. It looks like this fight will be next. I wanted lomachenko to fight this Aussie.
