Former unified and lineal lightweight world champion George Kambosos Jr. has signed a multi-fight co-promotional agreement with Top Rank, who will work in conjunction with DiBella Entertainment and Ferocious Promotions to present his fights. Kambosos’ ring return will be announced shortly.
“George Kambosos Jr. is an exciting fighter and an engaging personality who will continue to make great fights in the lightweight division. We are thrilled that he has signed a co-promotional agreement with Top Rank,” said Top Rank chairman Bob Arum. “Top Rank was involved in two historical promotions in Australia with George, and we have no doubt that there will be many more to come.”
Is he not still fighting Maxi Hughes in July or whenever it was?
Top Rank is stocking lightweights. Good for them.
On facebook it said he is still fighting Hughes.
Good for George.
Wouldn’t mind seeing Kambosos vs Issac Cruz
Yes, good matchup. Cruz’s moving-forward style coupled with his power would make Kambosos work hard for that victory. Cruz is no slouch. Cruz forced Davis to work hard in some rounds. Cruz in UD against Kambosos.
Kambosis has money in the bank. He has limitations and will never return to the top. He should buy a gym, a nice house, mortgage-free, and enjoy his family and his health.
Because he lost to the best lightweight in the world, Haney? He lost to one guy after beating the man who beat the (media-hyped) man. Tough Boxing fans!
Good move here because Kambosos is an exciting fighter with a granite chin. Styles make fights so they should match him up with fighters that make great fights. A Haney will always win so Kambosos needs more straight ahead fighters…
I wanna see him fight Tank, I reckon he does better then Kingry and goes the full 12.
Pretty good fighter but nowhere near Tank.
They are stacking lightweights so they can all fight each other within Top Rank and not have to fight guys like Tank Davis. This is what they tried to do with Crawford
Kingry vs Kambosos would be a good fight to make at this moment.
I’m happy to see that top rank signed Kambosos. He’ll be fodder for Stevenson and K Davis. But, before he gets destroyed by those two, I hope he faces someone like Yoshino or Nakathalia and wins first. Then gets destroyed by those two.
Lomachenko or Lopez? or maybe Garcia?
