    • Same here, I hope he doesn’t get “COVID”. He already held up the fight long enough.

    • Kambosos is better than all of Haney’s opponents. I see Kambosos posing real problem with his timing and understanding of distance.

    • Then you woke up , but Haney didn’t, obviously your boxing IQ is about 2

  • Kambosos is going to embarrass Haney. Kambosos is the next Tim Bradley: overlooked and underappreciated but always bringing the ‘W’. Kambosos by UD, 115-113 across the board.

    • Haney might not be a power puncher.But the best boxer by far besides Stevenson.Counter punching will not win him this fight.

  • i will be surprised if Haney doesnt win this one. Unless its the same incompetent cheating judges from the Pacquiao robbery

    • Actually don’t think that was a robbery-more like an off night for Pac which allowed him to be beaten by a much less talented opponent. Kambosos has yet to prove he didn’t get his win the same way.

      • Michael St. John
        nonsense pac was off, but still won easily. the other guy didnt land much. unless you count elbos, headbuts, forearms, etc….

    • Haney hasn’t fought anyone of note ,an email champion , kambosos has grit and power and he’ll bring the pressure, Haney won’t cope ,

    • Even Freddie Roachcame forward and stated Manny got beat by Jeff Horn ….and there aren’t hometown decisions in America? You tool !!!!

  • If we look at Haney’s record, Joseph Diaz and Linares are the only good names on his record,with Linares he struggled and got staggered in the 10th, luckily right at the end. Kambosos is much better than Diaz and fresher than Linares, being by far more intense, having said that, Haney should be prepared for a rough, extremely rough encounter and enviroment, where Kambosos might emerge as the winner by decision.

  • I pick Kambosos for the following reasons:

    1) It’s in Australia with the crowd cheering for Kambosos.

    2) Haney may not win any close rounds.

    3) Kambosos will show more aggression.

    4) Kambosos will display a higher punch output (with snap).

    5) Haney does not have enough snap or pop in his punches to discourage Kambosos.

    6) The judges will favor Kambosos’ aggression and higher punch output.

    7) Kambosos is willing to become far more mean, more nasty and more venomous for an ugly victory.

    Kambosos is willing to go through h*ll, but I do not see Haney matching this will power in the late rounds.

  • George is still in his prime so I favor him were as Haney has not reached that stage yet , should be interesting not sure of kambosis machismo stuff will favor him against an opponent like Haney who is young and fearless just like teo was who was injured and should not have been fighting at lightweight it should be close and technical so having said that I agree with some other commentary George may have it

    • I have had it about this weight drain crap ,Teo and his father loud mouthed kambosos , full of confidence ,there was no indication of fatigue or weight
      drain , he had lots of energy getting angry, and predicted a first round knock out ,that dose not come from a guy with loss of energy and drained , he got shocked on the night ,with a guy who stood toe to toe with him ,and if he was so sick and drained how did he go the distance ,time to stand up and own it ,he got beaten fair and square , then came all the excuses , where were they before the fight , just bad sportsmanship ,sore loses like all his fans

  • I don’t know who is gonna win but two images are stuck in my head. One is Kambosos getting off the deck against Lopez and fighting his balls off and the other is Haney constantly looking at the clock in the Diaz fight in the last round. I hope George pulls it off and as a more than 2-1 dog that seems like some good value.

  • There will be a truckload of excuses when Haney beats this guy. For all his so called weak punching everybodyis talking about here i would not be surprise if he stops him as well.

    • Haney is simply not a world class puncher. I can see Haney giving Kambosos fits with his movement but he can’t afford to take chances trading with Kambosos to get a ko.

  • Like I’ve stated many times on this site, Devin Haney is flat out better in EVERY boxing category than Kambosos. The ONLY advantage Kambosos has in this fight is home field advantage, period! Haney by wiiiide decision! Like 11-1 or 10-2 in rounds, but this fight will be in Australia, so that 10-2(118-110) will somehow turn into a 115-113 split decision win for Haney. Bottom line, Haney will not be denied.

    • Haney is clearly a better fighter. Most of these comments are from guys that are hopefuls against their own countryman for the wrong reasons.

    • Close but not quite. Better skilled, yes! Definitely. Harder puncher? Well, idk. Kambosos doesnt hit that hard either. Ruggedness and willing to scrap it out? NOPE. that is all Kambosos. Devin knows hes not a hard puncher so his boxing is super sharp. That gets u far for guus boxing u BUT i doubt Bosos is gonna do that. This may be a replica of the first Maidana vs Mayweather fight.

  • The KID hasn’t got a chance. Looks like George is working Bill Haney as well. Nice work so far…

  • Hopefully Kambosos won’t get “COVID” as a way of stalling the fight. Haney is so deserving of this opportunity after being dodged by Lopez. He is one of the few fighters in this division that wants that smoke with the top guys. Haney better go to with the mindset of finishing the job and not this boring ass UD mindset or he will get JEFF HORN’D just like Manny lol.

  • Kambosos was a very lucky boy when he fought Teo. Teo came on strong at the end and made that fight very close. Haney knows he has to bring it when he goes into enemy territory. Expect him to fight like a man possessed. If it goes the distance,
    expect a robbery. Expect a boxing clinic from Haney and a puffy face for Kambo. Haney has the tools and George will pay for the arrogant comments he
    made at the 1st press conference.

  • Shld have known, his dad is right there by his side. Time to cut the chord my dude and let ur son be his own man.
