“IBF Lightweight Champion Teofimo Lopez won the Title on December 14, 2019. His mandatory defense was due on or before September 14, 2020. The leading available number one contender is George Kambosos Jr. George Kambosos Jr.,” Carlos Ortiz, chairman of the IBF Championship Committee stated in an official notification to both parties, a copy of which has been obtained by BoxingScene.com. “Negotiations should commence immediately and be concluded by February 6, 2021.

“I think it’s a great opportunity—not just for Kambosos, but for the people in Australia, and also for us,” Lopez told BoxingScene.com. “it’s an opportunity we are willing to take, something we are very willing to do.”

it says that the tentative date may be during springtime in AU, which falls between sept to nov. so people can already watch this in the arena as more then likely a lot of people already got their covid vaccine shot. that would be good income generating also for their fight, as well as live audience may boost the performance of both fighters. let's wait for their final call on this one, maybe at the end of feb...

Very interesting that Lopez is willing to travel to Australia to defend his IBF belt against Kambosos as the Covid-19 strain as evolved. Although there is a vaccine today, still not assurance that everything are going to be fine.

In any case, Lopez are the obvious favorite here, with the strength of his upset win against Loma. Of course the crowd will be pro-Kambosos, so it will be a big test for Lopez to travel and fight in a hostile territory. Remember that we have witnessed a "home-cook" decision years ago (Pacquiao vs Horn), so he should bear this in mind that not to allow this fight to be on the judges hand.

Kambosos is the former sparring partner of Manny Pacquiao and he is a rugged fighter with a good knock out power, he is a good boxer but I don;t think he is good enough for Lopez, Lopez after beating Loma has become an elite boxer, I don't think the home crowd will annoy him and beat Kambosos, I'm on Lopez here he is in a prime of his boxing career.

Though he beat Loma, i think Lopez is young in terms of the number of fights and i can't consider him in his prime. With that being said, i will go for Kambosos as i'm sure the odds would be tempting to bet for him. Quality of opponents is still not a factor for me as the number of fights Lopez has had is still not that much. On that fight with Loma, i could say that he is good but the factor that made him won that fight was the inability of Loma to deliver what have had expected on him by the judges.

This will be a tough fight for Teofimo Lopez for sure as they are both undefeated and what is worst, George has more fights compare to Teofimo but Teofimo has an advantage in terms of Title as he will be the one to defend his title against his mandatory opponent.

Not so sure if the odds will be in big favor to Teofimo here even if he is the champ as his opponent has a perfect record also. I am pretty sure that the bookmaker will make a close odds if in case their showdown will happen in Australia.

Yes but I am very sure this is a good one that is also good to be gambled on, but let us wait if on February we can see that their fight will continue this year, we all know that many fights and plans has been canceled due to the pandemic, it can be very hard if they will insist the fight now but yes it is probable, I'm so excited with this one actually they are both famous in their division let's wait who will bring the belt this year of this match will continue since it is requested.

Australian boxers are always rugged, Jeff Horn was the same. I'm not familiar with Kambosos but he is also undefeated just like Teofimo Lopez, however, we can say that Lopez is already a high Caliber boxer after beating Loma last year.

A fan of boxing here and well-knowledge especially on history but the funny part is, I'm not familiar with mandatory defense terms lol.

So who is picking up opponents here? The challenger or the boxing body? At some point, we see boxers challenging others to catch with the rankings.

During negotiations, means no other name involved in the process?

This should proved a difficult fight for Lopez, Australian boxer's are mostly rugged he might be cheated and get robbed by his throne. Just like what they did to Pacquiao. Perhaps if he can show his dominance in early rounds or atleast score a knockdown, this should be in the bag for him. The record of the challenger is quite impressive in my opinion.

I think Pacman is different from this one I think so we should not compare these two, as far as I know this is from IBF and just like the other said, if they will not consider this fight knowingly that this is what IBF wants them to do, it could be their loss , they will have a problem soon , and I think they don't want it to happen so either they will fight or they will pay, it just sad that there will be no other choice for this one, once IBF is the one who requested, this is only what I know.

For the record, Pacman did not loss, he got robbed, and if we really believe that being rugged in the ring can intimidate a champion, then we probably have to look how Terrence Crawford made him look like an amateur, here's the highlights.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzMAAifFkcU

We have to move on guys lol, Pacman loses that fight to Horn and no amount of whining will change the decision of the judges, those things happen a lot on boxing.

Tagging Australian boxers as rugged, i think is not appropriate as there are many boxers opposite the style of Horn. Tim Tzsyu for example is a fine boxer and not rugged like Horn so it is the fighter's style not the nationality and i believe that Kambosos will play fair.

We all know that Lopez is the undisputed champion and is so confident in his matches and can fight anyone as long as they can pay him with a reasonable amount that he want.

I'll obviously bet on Lopez when this fight happens inside the ring because I know that he will dominate Kambosos as early as he can. I'm not underestimating Kambosos, I'm not a hater of that fighter but I'm just confident on betting Lopez as I tracked all of his matches and I saw how passionate he is.

But still, we all know that a lot of possibilities can happen inside the ring so make a research and think twice before betting.

It is a long preparation for Lopez, yet it is Kambosos might be waiting for this moment as well. I can't tell that Lopez is really good enough as he was holding the title but Kambosos as being undefeated, it gonna be a tough boxer. This gonna be a tough fight for Lopez and to defend his title but I'm still believing he can win this fight. I don't want to compare Kambosos to the Australian fighter that Manny had to lose, yet another generation it might be worse in strategy and Lopez must deal with him, otherwise, loose ends will come.

Lopez will deal with him without a problem, Kambosos hasn't beat big names in boxing, Lopez already had and he has proven he has rise in terms of level of boxing, this one, might be easy for him but I know Lopez won't take Kambosos for granted, he'll work hard still.

He should not take this for granted as he is fighting in a different soil. Just hoping that he will not experience what Pacquiao has experienced in the Australian soil when he fought with Horn. So many months to prepare, let's hope that it will not be postpone just because of covid results or something. Maybe, if they already set the date, that's when we start saying that the fight will gonna push thru.

It's the boxing body that order the champion to fight the number 1 in their ranking, in this case, it's IBF who ordered the fight to happen and if Lopez will not heed IBF's call, then this sanctioning body will strip Lopez of it's championship belt. All boxing body do this as promoters of the fight will have to pay the sanctioning fee  ;D. This is what i have understand on that mandatory defense, correct me if i'm wrong.

So many months to prepare, let's hope that it will not be postpone just because of covid results or something. Maybe, if they already set the date, that's when we start saying that the fight will gonna push thru.

It was just lately that Lopez had beaten the great Vasyl Lomachenko. That was probably the hardest fight of Lopez's career. So I think that has sufficiently prepared him to meet any opponent in the future.

I am for Lopez in this fight. Kambosos is a lot easier opponent than Loma. Although undefeated, Kambosos has yet to leave a footprint on the boxing ring. This is for me an easy Lopez fight but the hardest battle Kambosos has to face. It helps that he is going to take this big battle in his home country but I doubt this will help much.

So definitely we are going to see Lopez at least fight once this year against his mandatory. And this is Lopez's response.

Teofimo Lopez: Great Opportunity To Fight Kambosos In Australia; Gotta Pay Up If They Want The King

I don't know if Lopez just wants to take easy fights like this now that he is a champion, I just read one report that he is demanding $10 million to fight Haney, it's like saying that he doesn't want to fight tough guys in his division because it's not possible in the current condition, if he is the undisputed champion he should negotiate for a just deal just to fight Haney.

EDDIE HEARN REJECTS TEOFIMO LOPEZ JR. DEMANDS FOR $10 MILLION DEVIN HANEY FIGHT (https://www.dazn.com/en-PH/news/boxing/eddie-hearn-rejects-teofimo-lopez-jr-demands-for-10-million-devin-haney-fight/)

LOL, it's early to demand that huge payday, yes, he beat the great Loma, but it doesn't mean that he can command $10 million a fight, it's getting too much in his mind that it can back fire on him because he is too focus on making money fighting. Manny Pacquiao take the hard route before earning $10 mil or higher every fight.

Lopez still needs to proved himself and winning in spectacular fashion before he can command that huge pay. And we are still in the pandemic, he needs to understand that, big money can't be raised that easy.

He can demand whatever he wants if he knocked Lomachecnko out, but for me, it's a close fight and Loma wants a rematch, if he asking $10 million because he beats Loma, what more if he beats Davis or Garcia, he will be asking for the moon, he should beat more great opponents, the best fighter should fight and beat the best fighters if he wants to have good value, he only beat Loma.

We all witnessed that big event and we were thinking Lopez has no chance against LOMA, in fact we saw the poll voting in a thread here before and almost everyone is on LOMA and we were wrong.

Same here, the odds itself says Kambosos needs some miracle to win, so I'm not betting for that Miracle, I just stick to the proven fighter, young and hungry and that is Lopez.

When Lopez was pitted against Loma, the odds was also highly favorable for Loma and unfavorable for Lopez. It was also perceived that a sort of a miracle was what Lopez needed to beat Loma. Loma was -400 to -450 in the betting odds. But it turned out that Lopez was the better boxer that night.

I am not saying Kambosos has zero chance of winning. The man is young and strong and in fact undefeated to be fair. But with all objectivity, I will also stick to Lopez on this one.

Lopez is -833, you can tell that he is heavily favored to win the fight, and honestly, I don't think it's worth to risk 833 usd to win 100 usd.

https://i.imgur.com/MrzswKc.png

I agree. My risk management is also telling me that is too much of a risk for too little of a reward. But there must also be a lot of gamblers out there whose risk tolerance is a lot higher than mine, especially those who are a hundred percent convinced that Kambosos will not stand a chance against Lopez.

As for me, I would rather avoid betting on outright winner and try to bet on rounds or even KO.

He claims himself the king and undisputed but with so many great talents in his division and nearby division I don't think he has legitimate claim to that, he needs to beat all of them to claim the title undisputed and king, he needs to prove himself worthy of the title and the money, he just beat Lomachenko, and this is not enough.

I agree, however, he is the top dog of the division and maybe that's why he calls himself the King. Of course, we wanted to see him fight the other fighters in the division, specially Davis and Garcia. But it will take some time though. There is one interview of him saying that he will have like 2 fight in this division and move to 140 lbs.

I agree that Kambosos is a good fighter and has a good future in the boxing industry, but he is up against a top caliber fighter who just comes out from wins coming from two top fighters in the boxing world, Commey and Loma and he showed class and domination on these two great fighters, but I don't want to rule out an upset Kambosos also has power in both hands.

That's what I'm also thinking, that's the only way we can get a good betting odds, given that Lopez would already win this easily, then our job now is just to predict on which round he will KO Kambosos.. must be tough but this is very challenging,.. Maybe I'll go with the 3 rounds ranges, like 1-3, 4-6, 7-9 and so on.

A multiple bets on this can be worth it. One unit for KO in favor of Lopez is one bet. In terms of 3-round range, a couple of bets might still be worth it. I would probably go for rounds 4-6 and rounds 7-9 still for Lopez of course.

We cannot rule out an upset. It is always a possibility in any fair match. But I believe that in this particular match, it is far from happening. I'm hoping it won't come.

it says that the tentative date may be during springtime in AU, which falls between sept to nov. so people can already watch this in the arena as more then likely a lot of people already got their covid vaccine shot. that would be good income generating also for their fight, as well as live audience may boost the performance of both fighters. let's wait for their final call on this one, maybe at the end of feb...

I don't think that it's just a favorable fight for Lopez because George Kambosos has been preparing well for his future fights since he also wants to prove himself. Lopez's records have an edge yet he still has a lot to defeat for him to be called the king. As for some boxing critics, his strategy is still defeatable and it still has a lot of loopholes to polish, so Kambasos should focus on Lopez's movements first.

That is if he can keep up with Lopez, he owns some of the best and awesome knockouts and he can finish any guy with one punch his timing is just great if Kambosos can take his punch then he has a good chance of winning, just take a look on this video and see for yourself how devastating his punch is, and if Kambosos will not careful he will suffer this kind of knock out.

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBSVZJTZ0Fw

And Lopez must be careful as well as Kambosos wanted to take a very good shoot and wanted him to knockout. Lopez is an aggressive boxer and he proves it many times, if he able to knock out Kambosos, then it was to say that he can able to fight for more tough guys in his weight level.

As I look into the video, not a question that Lopez has a devastating punching power but couldn't deny also that Kambosos will work to counter-attack over him. Lopez must have to keep the strategy, that is the winning tool for him.

Nice idea, if we can get at least x3 of per round ranges, we can always put 2 and if one will hit, we are still in profit. I'll probably do it, for now, all we can do is just wait for the betting odds. Based on what I noticed, betting odds with handicap normally available a day before the fight.

Yeah. Even money-line odds are not yet available in popular crypto betting sites. I guess they're still in the process of analyzing the perfect odds for this match. Will just wait for it.

It's easy for them to analyze the betting odds since odds are based on what people think and people think here that Lopez will win easily.

Teofimo Lopez spoke with Ak & Barak about his upcoming fight with George Kambosos Jr — which he says is happening on May 29, likely in Miami

Quick update on this fight.

Looks like we already have a date, per Teofimo Lopez it will be on the 29th of May via Triller PPV who won the purse bid for the fight.

Just don't how if this fight will sell to the boxing fans as this date is close to the Canelo vs Saunders bout which will happen on May 8 and the hype for this fight might not be there.

I would go for Lopez considering he has a better reach and he is younger which could translate to an endurance.

I think this is still hype around it, specially around Teofimo Lopez, he is one of the hottest boxer specially after defeating Loma. And he has a Hispanic origin, so Miami is a good venue to held this fight.

Kambosos be ready though, he is lucky he got a shot at Lopez right now, so he should prepare and show us something. That he deserves this fight and make it as entertaining for boxing fans.

Kambosos is prepared, he is on the same position as Lopez when Lopez fought Loma, who knows Kambosos here can pull an upset.

I'm searching in my bookie now and it seems no betting odds available for this fight yet.

After over 2 months, finally we already have the schedule of this fight.

I hope this will be the final date and will not postponed or move.
This is the battle of undefeated fighter but per record, Lopez is just in a higher level as he is still hype after beating Loma.

Hopefully we will enjoy this fight.

This is some good fight right here we are waiting for them to announce the schedule and finally, here we have it. I don't have any idea what kind of fighter Kombosos is, but judging by how he managed to beat his past opponents, this upcoming fight will be the most interesting in his career. If he can keep a good round with Lopez and manage to exchange punches throughout the final rounds the decision would be hard for the officials and it would get Lopez to win it since he is the current champ.

Yeah right, the date of the fight as mentioned above some post are close with Canelo's fight might be one of those things that promoters will check out.

The situation that cause by this pandemic might affect everything, if there's no interest that much the possibilities
of postponedment of this fight is very possible.

Let see if this will proceed and same as you, also hoping to see and enjoyable fight once everything got settled.

There's no reason the fight will be cancelled, it's even helpful that the fight is near the schedule of Canelo so it could also attract more attention, I guess they are not having a huge target of the PPV revenue, and as long as there's a crowd in this fight, they will make money for sure.

When it comes to credentials Lopez has a lot to show, but Kambosos is one hungry fighter who will do everything just to give Lopez a good fight, boxing aficionados will go for Lopez but Kambosos is a dark horse he can give Lopez a good fight, he once announced that his greatness will start after he beat Lopez, this is big words let's see if he can walk his talk, and give Lopez a good fight, my heart goes for Kambosos, but logic pointed Lopez has all the edge.

According to ESPN, Lopez ranked 1st, meanwhile, Kambosos ranked 10th. For sure, Kambosos is the underdog, BUT he also has a 100% win rate! This will be a nice match.
However, I'm sure Lopez will win because his actual weight is not lightweight IMO. He will dehydrate to pass the weigh-in and buff himself on the match day. So basically, Kambosos will have to deal with a bigger and younger opponent. #RIP

May 29th was also supposed to be the date of the Mike Tyson vs. Evander Holyfield exhibition fight. It appears that they are having trouble with negotiations but if it did get finalized I could see the Lopez vs. Kambosos fight being postponed. There is also another PPV on May 1 from PBC. There is a lot of competition around the same time but it is still going to be difficult for promoters to make up the huge amount of money they bid on this fight regardless of what date it happens.

Quick update on this fight.

Looks like we already have a date, per Teofimo Lopez it will be on the 29th of May via Triller PPV who won the purse bid for the fight.

I guess not on the 29th of May. I read the article it was on June 5, correct me if I'm wrong here or the article that I have read was wrong.

"Undisputed lightweight champion Teofimo Lopez has confirmed that he’ll be defending against George Kambosos Jr on June 5th on Triller pay-per-view at the Marlins Park in Miami, Florida."
https://www.boxing247.com/boxing-news/teofimo-lopez-vs-george-kambosos-on-june-5th-in-miami-florida/173273

My bet was on Lopez too, he is a very aggressive fighter and he will guess the favorite fighter in most bookers when the fight has come.

So it could be either May 29 or June 5, if no fight in May 29 then we can expect it in June 5.

^[snip]
So it could be either May 29 or June 5, if no fight in May 29 then we can expect it in June 5.

Well, perhaps that could be on June 5th. I did not see any sign that there will be a fight between them by next month --however, there could be a fixed date because people will perhaps mislead such information.

That is right, the odds will perhaps favor Teofimo Lopez's side since he had a good record so far compared to Kambosos.

Lopez vs Kambosos Odds
Boxer   Odds
Teofimo Lopez   -800
George Kambosos   +500

There's no betting odds yet listed in sportsbook but there's a prediction of odds already, as per this site (https://bettinginsiderjournal.com/boxing/lopez-kambosos-odds/), the odds are listed as follows.


Obviously, you can see how big favorite is Lopez to win this fight.

William Hill is the only place I could find that has odds for this fight and they are very similar. They have it Teofimo Lopez -833 / George Kambosos +450. It is not as much of a mismatch as the odds suggest so I would wait a while if you want to bet on Lopez, but you could potentially make some good money if you really believe in Kambosos.

We have different interpretation of the odds though, for me it's a mismatch as +450 is too underdog... maybe if its just +200, I would say not so mismatch but with the current odds, I guess the bookies are just trying to tell us that Lopez will dominate his opponent.

That's what I was trying to say. It is a mismatch on paper but when they get in the ring I expect Kambosos to win some rounds and make it competitive. I think the odds will move closer because it is not a guarantee that this will be an easy fight. Lopez has had an off night before.

The odds are in:

https://i.imgur.com/Q767AXq.png

But @1.07 for Lopez, hmm, not very attractive, the good news is that the schedule date is still far, so we might see other betting options for sure from sport bookies. But this just shows that Lopez is the heavy favourite and, so I'm looking for the knock out odds or 12 round decision.

When they faced off Lopez is motivated to beat Kambosos, Kambosos chances from bookies and experts is not that good but he can pull off  a big surprised they don't call him ferocious for nothing, just check some of the highlights of his fight and you'll have an idea how good he is also

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4kux82zyuYA

Kambosos is good no doubt about it, but he is facing Lopez here, who is the champion and the one who beat the great Loma fair and square. And he hasn't fight anyone on Lopez caliber that's why the odds is heavily favoured on Teofimo.

The only thing that can go for Kambosos is that it will be held in Australian soil (last time I read), so maybe he can pull one of the biggest upset and be motivated because he wants to show his local fans that he is no fluke.

Boxing fans will have to wait a few extra weeks to see Teofimo Lopez defend three of boxing's four lightweight world championships against George Kambosos. After initial reports by BoxingScene.com, Kambosos confirmed to Yahoo Sports that the fight has been delayed from June 5 to June 19. The fight will still take place at loanDepot Park in Miami as originally scheduled.

Lol at Teo Lopez, acting like a gansta and wearing Marlon Brandon's iconic "The GodFather" image.

Kambosos too is not intimidated and really wanted to rip Teo's face. This is going to be good as it last. Good press conference and hyping from both of them. But at the end, it will still be Teo Lopez for me by knock-out.

It's a good start and has the making of a good fight, both fighters have a good resume to speak about, Lopez obviously trying to establish himself as the big guy here it's a mind game I'm glad that Kambosos is on for a challenge, I hope these two guys can bring what they have been saying in their conferences, and it will turn out to be a much better fight than the Canelo - Saunders.

I hope so as Lopez is quite a technical fighter, so this fight could go to distance. He is young but smart, that's why we like him to win here as we beat Loma which is a big boost on his career. Time flies, I never thought that we are going to see this fight 2 days from now.

Odds are. 1.07 for Lopez and 7.00 for Kambosos, which one would you take?

Fight with LOMA doesn't that demonstrate his strength as Lomachenko had damaged shoulder  that time.  However, regarding speed and footwork,  Lopez is superior of  Kambosos and I would bet on him. As to judges, hope they will be not biased otherwise the win of any boxer  will not add him a score in eyes of fans.

Ok now I know where I heard George Kambosos, he used to be Manny Pacquiao's sparring partner, helping him prepare for the Lucas Matthysse fight.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8_4hkOH6OU

I also remember that Porter Jr was once Manny's sparring partner then he became a champion. I'm not saying that Kambosos might upset Lopez here, but having train and seen how Manny train, this guys has somewhat get the blue print on how to become a future champion. With Manny's discipline and hardwork they have seen it from the legend himself.

We usually heard this kind of excuse when they lose, it's not new because Manny Pacquiao also had an excuse that he has an injury when he was fighting Mayweather, why can't they just accept and give credit to the winner. If Loma really is not 100%, then maybe he can ask for a rematch and I'm sure Lopez would give him that any day.

BREAKING: Source: Teofimo Lopez tests positive for Covid-19, Kambosos fight and card is off, moving to Aug. 14.#boxing #LopezKambosos

We have some breaking news. Teofimo Lopez has tested positive for Covid-19 and this fight has been postponed, again. This has been a real disaster for Triller who paid a lot more money than this fight was worth and then had to change the date because of the Floyd fight and now because of this.

Damn, after so many postponements, here we are again hehe.

Moving the fight to August 14 might not be a good idea as the fight between Manny and Errol Spence is scheduled on August 21 so I think people might not buy the PPV as they rather watch the Pacman return.

Yeah, pandemic is still here so it's sad to here Teo Lopez testing positive for the Covid-19 virus postponing the fight. Let's see if there will be a negative effect on him as it might cause him some problems even if he is cleared to fight.

And in any case, Aug is a good date, the date is before the Manny Pacquiao fight so it will be a good month for boxing fans to see two great fights.

August is the month for Manny and Errol, no one can steal that moment for them, so I agree with you, it's a bad idea to schedule on that month. I just hope Lopez can fully recover and the covid-19 virus will not affect his performance in this fight. These boxers should be careful, not only for themselves but more so on the fans who had already paid for the PPV of this fight and some have bought the ticket to watch the fight in the Arena.

This is bad for Lopez though, been asking this myself and from this community how some boxers after being infected by the virus, has lost their match,

1. Miguel Berchelt tested positive then lost to Oscar Valdez
2. Povetkin as well, lost to Dillian Whyte in their rematch

Those are the only two boxers that I can remember right now that lost their belt after contacting and then recovered and then go on to fight.

Not saying that Lopez will lose, but if might have a effect on him, so let's see how he will perform in August.

Not a good thing to begin with, even he got plenty of time to condition his body the effects of this virus might still be there, though we can't tell until we see him fight and if there's any signs from his mobility.

The good thing is we can still expect the fight to happen, the fans who are waiting for this fight needs to extend the wait, while sports bookies also needs to adjust, gamblers for sure are also waiting for the good odds between this two fighters.

Lets wait till the date, hopefully the fight ends well without any medical concerns.

^^ We also have Nonito Donaire vs Nordine Oubaali who both tested positive for the corona virus that's why the fight was pushed for several months. Then Nonito blasted Oubaali that you will thought it was a mismatch fight.

Lopez might be affected by the virus, but I don't see if putting a lack luster performance. This is his first mandatory fight so for sure he wanted to show up again, with or without covid-19 effect.

That's a great example that covid-19 does not really have a long-lasting effect on your body.  It will just go away if you have strong stamina and just take it as an example also the athletes that are tested positive and yet are still playing the same when they are free from covid-19. You know, people are just overreacting, but in reality, covid-19 does not bring strong negative effect to a person who keeps himself fit and healthy.

I don't think it will hamper the performance of the athlete who just caught with COVID if the athlete is asymptomatic but if it becomes severe then it's another story because the virus will have a long-term effect on the respiratory.
Both boxers are still young and on their rigid training so I don't think one of them will have severe symptoms, I hope the fight pushes through in August, both fighters really want each other in the ring, it will be a great fight.

Don't you think that there are some things fishy about those postponements? Sorry if you think I have a green mind but who's with me? LOL. This is really a disaster for those who already make a bet. Don't you think that people will make another bet while some of their money is floating? You are right @bisdak4, I guess people would rather go in pacmans return.

I don't think there some fishy going on regarding the postponements. Lopez was reported to have been contracting the virus so the next best thing is not allow him to fight, but give him ample time to recover. And they are not going to received any incentives if they cancel the original date. For those who have bet already, then they will just have to wait for the fight to happen. Maybe others will bet more, or just stick to their original bet, it won't chance a thing.

A long overdue clash for the world lightweight championship will finally see the light of day.

Hopefully.

The oft-postponed lineal/WBA/IBF/WBO lightweight title fight between defending champion Teofimo Lopez (16-0, 12KOs) and mandatory challenger George Kambosos Jr. (19-0, 10KOs) is likely to remain stateside. BoxingScene,com has been informed by representatives directly involved with the event that a fight date has been set aside for October 5 at Madison Square Garden’s Hulu Theater in New York City.

Finally, there's a final date of this fight again, I almost forget this fight because of the postponement, but definitely, this fight is worth to watch and let's see if Lopez would be able to defend his title after that stellar win against Lomachenko.

Are the betting odds still up?

The fight with lopez will certainly have a big impact on kambosos career in the future, because lopez is a mandatory opponent for kambosos after winning split points over Lee Selby in october, i think if kambosos is able to beat lopez he will be the best australian boxer of all time time, but of course it's certainly not easy, especially considering that Lopez career was quite brilliant in 2020 and Lopez managed to win almost all the belts in the lightweight class.

And who the hell is Lee Selby in this division?

The fight will happen October 5 
Teofimo Lopez vs George Kambosos Jr headed to Hulu Theater on October 5 (https://www.badlefthook.com/2021/8/23/22638375/teofimo-lopez-next-fight-kambosos-new-date-october-5-msg-theater-boxing-news-2021) hopefully this fight will push through this is a fight between two fighters who are not afraid to engage and fight toe to toe, both fighters are equal in their aggressiveness and records I have Lopez in a slight advance because of his speed and ring generalship.

Probably this multiple postponements caused by Kambosos was scared to fight with Lopez, he want to have a good records without any single lose :D Even though Kambosos never lose of all his fights, but to be honest he's not a professional boxer right now because his boxing skill equal as beginner or intermediate only.

Lopez is still young, but he has excellent speed and power like other senior boxer, his hook is very strong. Lopez is one of my favorite boxer, I don't want to miss any single match on his fight. I remember his fight with Freitas on 2018, he do fortnite dance and back flip as the celebration ;D it's so entertain. Many people said his celebration is too excessive and not respecting his opponent, but in my sight he do respect his opponent by not keep punching when already knocked down.

Kambosos did not caused the fight to be delayed, the last postponement was due to Lopez getting infected by the corona virus. And Lopez doesn't want to and travel to Australia (Kambosos home country) to fight because of home cook decision (remember Pacquiao vs Horn)?

What does the home cook decision mean? I thought this fight has already happened and I just didn't saw the result or I missed it but it seems that it's postponed again and again. Hopefully they settle this fight so we can move on and see other upcoming matches.

Maybe what he meant is that Lopez is against fighting Kambosos in his home soil because of the possibility that the decision might be biased if the fight goes to distance and the decision will go to the judges hand.

We have this happened to Manny Pacquiao against Jeff Horn in Australia wherein majority saw Pacquiao winning the fight but the judges seems to see it differently because the final score show Horn ahead on three judges. And Lopez doesn't want that to happen to him.

is he afraid that he might lose in their second fight?

Did he said he doesn't want a rematch anymore?

I read some of the news that there's a possible rematch,

https://www.badlefthook.com/2021/6/27/22552396/teofimo-lopez-vs-vasiliy-lomachenko-rematch-looking-likely-boxing-news-2021

can you confirm?

I think a rematch is good for boxing as Loma has won his last fight and proved that he is still here, when it's good for boxing, it should be good for both boxers as they will certainly make some good money.

Ohh this must be a piece of good news for Loma and to all his fans as he might reclaim his belts. A rematch is what hardcore boxing fans wanted to see because of the manner Lopez won it, not so impressive.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgXki2CCjI0

Above is a youtube video and there you can see the reasons why he don't want to give Loma a rematch.

Wonder why Bob Arum didn't push a rematch as this would be huge in terms of income.

So this fight will be held outside of Australia? I think it was a good thing that it was postponed to October and not August because it almost coincides with Manny's fight and ticket for this fight might not sell well.

It's almost a year now since Lopez defeated Loma and he might have ring rust so I might go for Kambosos because I have doubt in Lopez. Lopez may held the four biggest belt in his division but the manner of how he get it is not so impressive and why he doesn't want a rematch with Loma, is he afraid that he might lose in their second fight?

is he afraid that he might lose in their second fight?

For me this is the single reason why he doesn't want to give Loma a second fight. He knows deep inside that he beat a injured Loma, as we can see in the fight, Loma is not throwing enough punches because he is nursing a injury. He even tells Loma to go back to 130 lbs.

And we all know that Lopez is acting like a dick after getting all the belts and now feels that he is the pound for pound.

Or eventually, when the price is right, these two may have a rematch. For now, Lopez has its own reason not giving Loma a chance to fight back. The weight of afraid losing is more likely true. You mentioned it wasn't a 100% Loma back then and if Lopez give him a chance, Loma will force it and try snatching the win.

It's between them and how the fans will call for this rematch still open, especially if there is more money that will be involved in this negotiation.

We will talk about a rematch after this fight as it's not certain yet on who will win although Lopez here is a heavy favorite. We know that upset happen in any sport, especially in the sports of boxing, so let's see how conditioned Lopez is after he got infected with covid-19.

This was reported last June 29 this year.
https://www.dazn.com/en-US/news/boxing/teofimo-lopez-still-very-sick-with-coronavirus/btw4n2raikzx1bqewbipzbo6i

It's a mild case I'm sure he'll be back to his old and dangerous form he has a great training camp and conditioning coach, I don't think his getting infected with Covid will have an impact at all on his performance in case he loses I hope he will not blame CoVid as the case, this is a fight between two boxers who are eager to engage and the fight could go either way.

Hopefully, he will be back in his old self because there are boxers that are affected by Covid-19 and lost the fight. Lopez is a tough and so is Kambosos, that's why this fight is really intriguing on papers. But we will see what Kambosos is made of, fighting the champion. I don't think that Lopez will make an excuse and blame Covid-19 if ever he losses this one. And who knows, there could be rematch clause or he will ask for a rematch.

It's a bad excuse if he going to blame Covid as the cause if he losses the fight there's no study that will pinpoint to Covid as something that could harm the athlete's performance, and it's too early to talk of a rematch and rematch will depend if the match is too close that the fight goes either way, what makes this fight every interesting is both guys love to engage and they promise to do that, let's see if they can do that.

I don't want another boring fight like what happened to the Casimero - Rigondeaux fight, we are shortchanged on that fight.

I don't think we will see a boring fight, but it could be one sided as it might be a complete domination by Canelo again. Maybe same with the Saunders fight, it's very competitive in the early rounds, but as fatigue sets in, they are going to open up and then Canelo, which is known to be a slow starter could start to get hot around round 4 and then uses his skills to outbox Plant as the fight progresses and could end the fight in less than 10 rounds.

It will only become boring if Kambosos will not engage, and though Lopez is the favorite, Kambosos will certainly try to upset him as he is also undefeated with a good record. These two fighters are aggressive, we will not see a running game for sure, and getting boos from the fans is a big disrepect as a fighter.

He also undefeated and if he wanted to increase his popularity he needs to engage and try winning this fight.

Fans are looking forward to see actions to value their money paying for this fight, both fighters needs to show good action throwing punches
and try to KO their opponents.

Getting boos from the fans will only tag them in their next following fights. better to work it out.

Don't worry, we will not see a disappointed fan in this fight, it's a battle between undefeated fighters and they will try to win to be on the top. Lopez had some big upset against Loma, but that was only one fight, he has to proved that it was not just he was lucky, he needs to beat Kambosos convincingly.

I guess, with the highlights and the stats I saw, I will root for Kambasos to win.

This fight was already postponed once, due to irresponsible behavior by Teofimo Lopez. Just days before the scheduled fight, he contracted COVID 19, as he was travelling to another city despite the protocol not allowing that. Kambosos had reacted angrily at that time, and made posts in social media criticizing Lopez. So when these two meet at the ring, the atmosphere is likely to be charged up. BTW, the latest news is that both the fighters have agreed to get fully vaccinated before the match, in order to avoid any further delays.

That's great news, it's very important that they will not get infected with covid-19 as both are training hard and the fans are waiting for this fight. It's very irresponsible if for the 2nd time the fight will be postponed again, maybe people will start to speculate that it's just the strategy ot Lopez to avoid this fight.

We still need to wait for over a month, there's still a lot of things that could happen, but I think they'll take it seriously now as no promoter would like to promote a fight if one boxer is irresponsible, his future will be affected even if he thinks he is a superstar now. Maybe after this fight, if Lopez would still win, we should see a rematch between him and Lomachenko.

Definitely the atmosphere is going to be intense since both parties are flamed up to fight each other not to mention as Kambosos got mad over Lopez which is definitely not going to be taken lightly. This is the kind of fight that I'm waiting for, they're evenly matched so it's an exciting fight in my opinion.

Even before going up in the ring, this two are not holding anything as they continue to trash talk and bad mouth each other. Love it though, Kambosos is not backing down (typical of Australian I must say), so imagine if they two go at it in the first round of this fight. Or even at the weigh in and the press tour, for sure there is no love lost between this two aggressive fighters. This is a must watch and see if Lopez doesn't have ring rust or not affected by Covid-19.

That's the way they sell the fight, but let's hope we will see the same action or even more than when they will be in the ring to face each other. Lopez is a great boxer, winning against LOMA makes him popular, so it's Kambasos here who has to prove something that is undefeated record is special.

For me the pressure is on Teo Lopez not on Kambosos, but in any case, Kambosos is the challenger so he needs to show us more in order to win against Lopez. But knowing Lopez, I don't think that even the effect of ring rust or covid will stop him from going full force against Kambosos. They have been talking bad against each other, I do hope that it will translate into a good fight, otherwise Kambosos will get knock out, in my opinion.

^^ Yes, both is pressured, Kambosos to proved that he is a good and worthy challenger and he can back up this trash talking, and Lopez demonstrate that he is a pound for pound, after winning against Loma. And that's why this fight is really exciting and may the best man win here, although the ML is one Teofimo Lopez as he is the defending champion.

To be honest, I want Lopez to win this and utterly destroy Kambosos given that he's the one talking smack in this bout. And if it's not the case, I wouldn't be proud that Kambosos is the winner because of his behavior.

Kambosos is a very reckless and impulsive person.  He may respond rudely to his opponent, but then he will regret it.  

He is Greek, and Greeks are impulsive people, like all southerners.  

However, boxers do not fight with words, but with their fists.  And Kambosos is great at boxing.  

He is a very serious fighter.  I want him to win this fight.  He has very serious chances.  

Lopez is a champion, but his championship must be confirmed in every fight.  His reputation is at stake now.  Therefore, he will fight like a mad animal.

I think we will see an exciting fight !

To be honest, I want Lopez to win this and utterly destroy Kambosos given that he's the one talking smack in this bout. And if it's not the case, I wouldn't be proud that Kambosos is the winner because of his behavior.

Hehehe, just a typical Australian smack talking, it's probably in them to really trash talk their opponent and boxing is one sports wherein they can do it to to get to their opponent skins because this is also a mental game.

Yes, Lopez can also talk smack and then destroy you in the ring. But George is not going to back down, that's why this fight is going to be a war as no one yielding.

Every provocation made by the two boxers outside the ring is a natural thing to provoke their opponents, and of course the fight in the ring later will prove who is the best between the two, compared to kambosos, I'm more sure if in the ring lopez will be able to win the fight, because So far, Lopez has been known as a boxer who has a pretty hard punch and is also a close-range fighter, but apart from that, of course, Lopez will play all out to bring down Kambosos so that he can still defend his world title.

It looks like we are seeing Teofimo Lopez defend his IBF belt against rugged Australian George Kambosos  as it was formally ordered by the sanctioning body.

So definitely we are going to see Lopez at least fight once this year against his mandatory. And this is Lopez's response.

Teofimo Lopez: Great Opportunity To Fight Kambosos In Australia; Gotta Pay Up If They Want The King


https://www.boxingscene.com/teofimo-lopez-great-opportunity-fight-kambosos-australia-gotta-pay-up-if-they-want-king--154611

Of course, he is willing, just a matter of how much money Lopez is gonna get here and the odds are going to favour the champ here.

I will continue to update this thread as I see any latest news about it. I'ms sure boxing fans are very excited to see him in the ring again.

I like it when two fighters are doing thrash talks to each other, that means they are going to go for each other and will engage to the delight of the fight, we love to see fighters going to each other and willing to engage, we hope they live up to the fan's expectation because of the hype they've created.

The champion is usually the good guy, but in this fight, I don't know who is the good guy, but I'm not wasting my time finding out, what I want to know is who is the better fighter here not based on the betting odds but based on our personal analysis.

Lopez has 75% KO, while Kambosos has 53%, and Lopez is younger among the two.

Lopez has more better statistic, experience, and ages. Both of boxers has similar style very aggressive with good footwork, I wonder which one will play more defensive.

I saw Kambosos is more prepared and training his self to able challenge Lopez, this will be one of excited fight on next month. I guess this fight will be ended as draw because of the hype of both trash talkers.

At certain point in the fight, I think Kambosos will be the one to play defense, specially if he can't take the power of Lopez early one.

He is extra motivated and it seems that this is getting personal. So we might see a good fight in the first four rounds and then play defense if anyone gets hurt on the exchange. Unless they really wanted to go all out for full 12 rounds and wanted to score a knock out.

Teofimo Lopez only had 16 fights, Kambasos is more experience than him and IMO, though he beat Loma, I still don't see that's it's already automatic that he can beat any fighter which has less popular than Loma. This match up should be an entertaining one.

Well, you have a point mate, but despite Lopez has fewer fights compared to his opponent now, I think people look more on the quality over quantity, and Lopez was able to beat Loma at his prime that we thought is almost unbeatable. We just have to wait for the outcome as this fight will be in less than 3 weeks from now, hopefully, no postponement or interruption of this fight schedule.

Yes, this is going to be an entertaining match, and I would say very anticipated as this has been postpone several times already. Definitely experience also tells the quality of opponents and not the X number of fights. And Lopez has been there in big stage, while we haven't seen Kambosos, just supporting events for big fights. Unlike Lopez who have been the main event fighter. I'm not seeing any postponement unless Kambosos gets infected by the corona virus.

I went on MSG website to see about #LopezKambosos tickets. Triller PPV is supposedly in 3 weeks. No tix on sale. See photo. No press release announcing event has been issued. And I spoke to Lopez camp which said they’ve had no travel itinerary or hotel rooms booked for yet.

According to Dan Rafael (one boxing analyst), there is no ticket sale for this fight and it's only three weeks before the fight. Any news about another postponement or is the social media post below legit?

“I’m going to beat this guy by any means necessary,” Kambosos said to the Sydney Morning Herald.

“It’s been a long time coming, and I don’t see any way he can beat me. They talk about certain aspects of his game, but my game is better all around.

“I don’t think he deserves to be a champion. He takes it for granted. He laps it up too much, wants to show off too much. He’s not a true champ and the fans see that; a lot of fans see his fakeness. He needs a big wake-up call, he needs to be humbled, and I’m coming to do that.”

I check one sports bookies and this is what I got for the odds:

ML: Lopez @1.08, Kambosos @6.60

What a disparity of the odds, I thought that it will be very close, but then again, this bookies are looking for the record and specially if you are a undefeated and the champion then you will see such a huge odds.

In any case, those saying that Kambosos might pull an upset then this is the time to bet on him because of the good and very attractive odds.

The odds can't be close because Kambosos I just a mandatory challenger while Teofimo Lopez is the unified champion. But being a huge underdog, i'm still rooting for Kambosos in this fight as I thought that Lopez's win against Loma is a fluke and if you look at the fight record of Lopez, we could say that still, he is not so experienced.

I'm going to wait for Kambosos via decision odds, I think that would be attracted than the ML.

I reckon it could be close? I'm not expecting Kambosos to have an attractive odd of 10.00 or something via a decision odds, but I might be wrong here.

I'm not that good at analyzing the odds, but I have a feeling that the odds will not be over 10.00, it should be between 7-8 and that's good since Kambasos is not really a KO artist, and if he wins here, it would also be hard for him to KO Lopez as he is too smart to beat. How about the odds for a draw?

Same with Lopez, he is also not a knock-out artist, actually, Kambosos has only 10 KO wins compared to Lopez's 12.  
As we can see in the comparison of the two fighters, both are almost in the same height, same reach and both are Orthodox fighters.

https://www.mytopsportsbooks.com/boxing/picks/lopez-vs-kambosos-07-22-2021/

If George Kambosos Jr. will win, I would assume that he wins because he has more experience.

There's only a slight advantage in terms of experience, usually, that's not a major thing to consider as a good fighter could really upset the champion, just like what Lopez did to Lomachenko who is an experienced fighter already before going pro, and he has a lot of big fights compared to Lopez. By the way, Lomachenko is also an Olympian, he won gold in the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.

Same with Lopez, he is also not a knock-out artist, actually, Kambosos has only 10 KO wins compared to Lopez's 12.

The IBF has significant power in determining what goes in and out of the ring. I think this fight will be a very interesting one for the two fighters to experience a great fight that many persons had been waiting for to see how it's going to turn out. At this point, I can't really determine who will win and who lose cause they're both my fans for a long time now

There's no doubt that this will means war. another exciting fight to watch and a few weeks away to wait for a great match-up. what I like about these two boxers is their power punch. They will likely not gonna reach the last round and as soon as they clash in the ring, we will see who will run after taking some powerful punches. As they might only gauging their power at the early round but as soon as one of them will feel his opponent power, that's when the fight will get excited cause we will see what strategy they will execute after that.

We will see what kind of preparations they made for each other, this two interesting fighters who really loves throwing heavy punches, with how camps watch all those previous fights that they've made, for sure it takes time to find good counter and execute which strategy may work when they already inside the ring.

It's nearing now and we will see which fighter will win after the last bell. Hopefully, they will bring entertaining actions,
by throwing more punches to attract their opponents to bring the counters.

Just hope that Lopez vs. Kambosos fight may push through now since this anticipated fight between the two good fighters postponed for a number of times but with the ordered came form IBF I doubt that this fight will going to be postponed again. I think the odds on favor of Lopez weights more than with 12 knockouts victories compared to the odds favor of Kambosos. The fight schedule is near coming and we could expect a heavy fight between the two fighter and this is gonna be a nice game to watch for.

There should be no more delays in the fight, they have sign the deal already and everything has been setup for that date.

Sport bookies will put Lopez as the odds favourite because he is the champion. And with the his recent win against the Loma, you shouldn't be surprised by the odds. But in any case, Kambosos is also good so yes, expect the two to really fight heavy, a lot is on the line here.

wait until the day of the fight.

That wait will be extended to another few more months as the fight was imploded due to the request of the challenger to default Triller's purse bis (TBH I have no idea why Kambosos did that and on what motive).

There are also rumors that Lopez has signed a contract that allow this fight to be postponed to a later date while Kambosos decline to do so  ;D.

Anyone got the real score of what's happening to this mandatory fight of Lopez? I think it's better for Lopez to fight another name now or give Loma that rematch.

This will probably urge Lopez to face the fight and signed the contract. For many times that their fight schedule been cancelled and set to another date, might this will finally happen next months October 4(not October 5) as stated here (https://www.dazn.com/en-US/news/boxing/teofimo-lopez-vs-george-kambosos-gets-another-new-date-set-for-new-york-city/85jeigvu0k5194czcdr3gi6d)

I think it's better for Lopez to fight another name now or give Loma that rematch.

The second article is old, the fight already got reschedule multiple times from June 19 - Oktober 5 - Oktober 4 - Oktober 16 https://www.worldboxingnews.net/2021/09/29/teofimo-lopez-kambosos-implodes-triller/ and still get postponed until no exact date.

Lopez wasn't had any single fight this year it will be better if he fight with another name since Loma has a fight with Commey on December 11, 2021. They may have a rematch for next year, but we need to see Lopez to fight this year.

That wait will be extended to another few more months as the fight was imploded due to the request of the challenger to default Triller's purse bis (TBH I have no idea why Kambosos did that and on what motive).

^^ I think it's all about money, when Triller decided to move the date back to October, they paid Lopez some money to agree with it. And now that it seems that they are going to push again, Kambosos disagree, thus asking money as well. And they are going to force Triller by filling grievances on the governing body. Triller has been losing a lot of money here, they don't want to risk losing this fight and I think all parties are going to agree later and settle everything.

this  article  (https://www.oddsshark.com/boxing/teofimo-lopez-vs-george-kambosos-jr-odds-fight-prediction-betting) says that this fight between lopez and kambosos will finally go down this oct 16 at barclays center, new york. but with uncertainty these days, we don't know if this date will really be their final date. this maybe the reason why crypto bookies are not yet listing this fight. but for fiat bookies, lopez is the heavy favourite here.

Triller cannot seem to do anything right. They already had a date and venue agreed upon only to change their minds and delay the fight again without having Kambosos' approval. They have not taken their duty as a promoter seriously and I think Kambosos has every right to want their bid defaulted so that another promoter will take over the event.

I think it has something to do with other fights, like the Alvarez vs Plant.

But yes, I agree, they really made a big mistakes moving the venue, the dates, just shows how the company is handled internally. Hopefully, Kambosos or Triller settled it, fans are excited about this fight because of the hype and the trash talk.

Recently, Lopez issued a statement that he it will be violence in the ring, even predicting that a broken eye socket might happen in this fight, hehehe.

I like that being aggressive of him, I hope it would really happen that they will give a good fight, we know Lopez is good but we can't underestimate Kambosos too because he too is a warrior. This is a battle of two warriors, not only good in trash-talking outside but also good in giving their best in the ring. No pressure for Kambosos but I see the pressure from Lopez here as he was coming from a big win against Loma.

Watching the highlights of Loma vs Lopez, it was Lopez whose face was damage but then he still win because he throw more clean punches than Loma. We know Loma is a rhythm higher but he failed in his fight against Lopez, now comes a new challenger, not as good as LOMA maybe but his style is different, so Lopez has to be careful.

Trash talking is normal, but make sure you do that in the ring so people will respect you.

Trash talking needs to be accompanied by skills and strategy, otherwise you'll be the one that will suffer once you lose the fight.

Fighters and their promoters are good at engaging fans by throwing words that entice and attract interest,
they are doing this to make sure that the fight will gain decent paychecks.

Any fighter can say anything to boost the challenge but behind that, they also need to comes
up solid and take their words into reality.

They have done their part of trash talking and bad mouthing each other on the press on the social media platform. But it seems that we will see a postponement or worst we won't see the fight this year because of so many issues by Triller themselves. Kambosos is trying to make a name for himself in the US so this fight is also very important for him to win so there is pressure as well.

And that's why we are eagerly awaiting for this fight to happen.

Take note that Loma is injured that time when he fought Lopez that's why if you seen the fight live, he was very cautious and just started to heat up around round 8 but it was too late. His rhythm was off obviously because of the said shoulder injury. Not making any excuses, just telling the facts, because after the fight, he goes into operation. That take a legit fighter in Nakatani who fight Lopez a good fight. Loma knock him out. So imagine if Loma is 100% during the Lopez fight, it might be a different outcome. And that's why we beg the question on why Lopez doesn't want to give Loma a rematch?

Shit happens, but pro fighter always give 100%. Loma lost not because of his injury or whatever, it is because his natural weight is around featherweight, well, lightweight is his maximum limit IMO. Meanwhile, Lopez's natural weight is beyond lightweight. He is just started and will go to the next weight class. It's a difference in raw power.
I think Lopez with his power could KO Kambosos comfortably. The annoying thing about this fight is the drama with the promotor lul.

No, it cannot be postponed again, the fight was first announced last January this year, so we waited many months to finally see this fight. If one of them gets infected with covid-19, I think the council has to penalize them because it's already big negligence of not protecting the money invested in this fight.

One thing is for sure - this fight will not be happening next week. I also don't think there is enough time to do it on the 16th. They only have two weeks remaining and tickets aren't even on sale. We will probably see Matchroom take over as promoter and hopefully nothing else goes wrong.

Feb. 25: Triller surprised the boxing world by winning a purse bid for the fight, bidding slightly more than $6 million, far more than Matchroom Boxing's $3.5 million second-place bid.

June 5: The original "official" date for the fight, which was then pushed to avoid having to share the weekend with the June 6 exhibition between Floyd Mayweather and Logan Paul.

June 19: The second "official" date. Postponed after Lopez tested positive for COVID-19.

Aug. 14: The third "official" date was confirmed by Triller only to be changed later at the discretion of the promoters.

Sept. 11: While never officially booked, Lopez vs. Kambosos was briefly discussed as being held on the undercard of the Triller pay-per-view headlined by Vitor Belfort vs. Oscar De La Hoya, a fight that didn't happen when De La Hoya had to be replaced by 58-year-old Evander Holyfield after testing positive for COVID-19.

October: Various dates and locations were pitched for the month of October, including Triller attempting to hold the event in Kambosos' native Australia as a sort of punishment for Lopez costing the promotion money because of his June COVID-19 diagnosis. The IBF stepped in to prevent this move.

Oct. 4: The fourth "official" date was locked down after an attempt to set the fight for Oct. 5, only for Triller to realize that date would conflict with a potential Yankees vs. Red Sox playoff game. After moving the fight to a Monday during the NFL season, Kavanaugh was surprised to learn the event would go head-to-head with Monday Night Football.

Oct. 16: Triller's latest attempt at a date change was made without Kambosos agreeing, leading to the current situation with Kambosos attempting to have Triller held in default.

That will really be horrendous if the fight are going to rescheduled at a later date. The last time I check, those who bought that tickets before the initial date has been refunded. So not sure if the new date has open up the ticket sale or not. Regardless, Triller is to blame for all what's happening in this fight, if someone snatch it from them like Matchroom or Top Rank, then it will be too bad as they have shell out huge money in promotion, and even for the reservations of the venue.

I'm wondering why the betting lines are still not available for this fight?

I just checked on my favorite bookies and I still could not find it considering the fight is going to happen 3 days from now. This fight should be a popular fight as Lopez is defending his belt, so I'm just curious why until now the odds are not yet displayed in the crypto sportsbook.

Kambosos' complaint stems from Triller's most recent attempt to move the fight from Oct. 4 to Oct. 16. After initially resisting the idea, Lopez reportedly agreed to the date swap, which was driven by Triller's CEO Ryan Kavanaugh claiming that he "just realized" the Oct. 4 date would mean going head-to-head with the Monday Night Football game between the Las Vegas Raiders and Los Angeles Chargers.

Yes, would love for Matchroom to take over the promotion, and I think both Lopez and Kambosos will have the same money regardless.

However, I'm seeing a lot of trash talk coming from Lopez camp, perhaps he still wants the fight to continue this month, while Kambosos is looking for way out of the contract from Triller. So let's see how things are going to pan out, time is running out.

It should be the other way around Kambosos is the challenger he should be the one to have the desire for the fight to continue, a true challenger will not back out from a championship unless it is an injury, he can have money that he wants if he wins against Lopez and become a champion, hopefully, the fight will push through this October 16 this is one of the most anticipated fights of the year, the promoter is blowing out this great match up.

It's because of the moving schedule, sport crypto bookies doesn't want to displayed it and then people betting on the fight then suddenly it will be move again. Doesn't give a good taste for us bettors, so I guess they have to wait for the final date if ever the fight are going to happen this year or not.

There are too many postponement and rescheduling and it's almost a year now that we don't know if the fight can happen. It's more frustrating to the the fighter as well, after all the trash talking, they still can't punch each others mouth.  ;D

But this is happening on October 5, right? Or I'm just not updated any more that the fight was move again or postpone?

This is not fun anymore if that would really happen, fans are waiting for a year just to see this fight, and now when the date of the scheduled fight is approaching, a postponement is gonna happen again?

Triller Fight Club wants to move the event from Oct. 4 to Oct. 16, but Kambosos believes the promoter should be removed from the bout

this  article  (https://www.oddsshark.com/boxing/teofimo-lopez-vs-george-kambosos-jr-odds-fight-prediction-betting) says that this fight between lopez and kambosos will finally go down this oct 16 at barclays center, new york. but with uncertainty these days, we don't know if this date will really be their final date. this maybe the reason why crypto bookies are not yet listing this fight. but for fiat bookies, lopez is the heavy favourite here.

Triller must have paid a substantial amount to Lopez and  Kambosos to move this fight, might not profit from this promotion I think.

Nope, it's postponed once again to October 16, see below quote. Barely two weeks from now and as per report tickets for this fight are now selling. I just can't imagine the frustrations of both camps on the uncertainty of this fight as they are preparing or training for a long time now, they must be over-trained by now  :).

Triller must have paid a substantial amount to Lopez and  Kambosos to move this fight, might not profit from this promotion I think.

In addition to requesting the removal of Kambosos, Triller has also called for the IBF to release the 20% deposit—more than $1,200,000—that Triller was required to place in escrow in securing the rights to the fight. Triller won a February 25 purse bid by submitting an offer of $6,018,000, far outpacing Matchroom Boxing ($3,506,000) and Top Rank ($2,315,000)—Lopez’s career-long promoter. Lopez was due 65% of the winning bid, translating to a career-high $3,911,700, far more than his combined paydays in title wins over Commey and Lomachenko. Kambosos’ remaining 35% cut was $2,106,300, reportedly at least ten times more than he has made for any fight to date.

^^ And with that decision by Triller, they've lost a lot of money already. If there's no main card in October 16, then fans for sure are not going to buy tickets because everyone wanted to see Lopez fight again after he won against Loma.

And I don't think that they have the case to ask a boxing body to remove a mandatory fighter on their list. Yeah, it might be a respond to Kambosos, but it doesn't make sense at all.

First, just want to give a link about this news - https://www.worldboxingnews.net/2021/10/03/teofimo-lopez-george-kambosos-pulled/.

Reading this article, you can feel there's so much drama after so many delays and now this fight being cancelled.
Bookies are right not to list this match because this fight has all the uncertainty you can get.
Maybe, it is time to stop anticipating this fight to happen. There's too much politics involved among promoters here.

I've become uncertain with this fight if it will push through because it was rescheduled several times, it's something to say that both parties don't agree on the said contract and we really don't know the reason. It is likely to lose the interest of their funds and also for the gamblers. I think, it is much better to find another opponent as this deal might no longer successful.

Actually, the main issue here is money, if the price is right, then probably we will not see the price being cancelled or move. It's on the promoters side to ensure that the fight will happen as they are risking the reputation of the boxers, there's a contract already, so I guess they should abide by the contract even if they'll make lesser in this fight as long as they deliver.

So maybe when Kambosos demanded for money and asking Triller to be removed in the picture, in retaliation Triller just decided to scrap this fight. So both fighter are not getting their money, and then Triller losing millions in return. Bad management decision, and it just shows how they are really new in the world of promoting big fights. Of course they can still future fights from the 4 governing bodies as it's always a purse bid, but we do hope that they learned a big lessons here. Or maybe Triller should stick to exhibition fights only?

now, this fight is finally not happening. lol it was already cancelled and that fight date has no main event. what a funny turn of events here? sometimes the promoters are the ones who are responsible if the fight is happening or not.
now, we will see what is next for lopez or kambosos here. their fans are expecting this month to see an explosive fight but it's not happening.

Promoters fault! They are the one who's responsible to what happened with this expected fight.

Fans will no longer see this to happen and they need to wait again if when this two fighters will have their own respective fights.

This event may take place maybe if another promoters will handle it with much better approach and much considerable offer from

both camps.

Here's the latest update on the Kambosos Lopez fight

George Kambosos' world title fight against Teofimo Lopez in doubt as Triller pull out of promotion (https://www.sportingnews.com/au/boxing/news/george-kambosos-boxing-australia-2021-teofimo-lopez-triller-cancelled/1tr7b1sahtr4d17j30rvhbbj9o)
There's a possibility that Eddie Hearn will take over the promotion, which is good since DAZN has a good track record when it comes to promoting big events.
Expect good news coming on this fight people still love to see the Kambosos - Lopez fight.

With this latest development, we can expect some good news coming but I doubt the fight will happen this year. Under a new promoter, they still have to work on many things and that includes marketing this fight.

Different promoters may have different strategies to promote the fight.

The hype is over of this fight due to many postponements, so they have to build the hype again in their own style.

There's no need to create the hype what happens is already a big hype the excitement of the fans is growing because of the delay, they can thrash talks again and it will be the talk of the town again, I have never seen a fight delayed so many times, this is a big lesson to boxing organizations if it is a big fight or a championship fight it's better that a big promoter handle the event to avoid this kind of scenario.

The fight has been adjusted or canceled multiple times as it will be moved on October 16, we’re not sure whether the hype or excitement will still be there, some might get bored already because they keep moving the game. The organizers should know that audience, supporters and bettors have their schedule too and some do already set that time for that match. Another big match has never been moved this much as many await to watch it.

Rather than getting some huge promotion, what I say is just throw in some spicy trash talk between them and the internet will be full of their trash talk. Trash talk plays a huge part in both the fight and the marketing of the fight. Although what I feel is that fans should be more hyped because of the delay, but to be honest the event has been delayed so many times in kind of a turnoff. But whatever it is, a trash talk between the players will get them trending in no time.

The IBF has made their ruling and declared Triller in default. Matchroom, who had the second highest bid, has confirmed they will be promoting this fight.

Nice to hear that and we are glad that it was over. So Triller losses that 20% escrowed when they secured the fight.

At least finally with Matchroom on board, this fight can easily be made without any postponement and for sure Lopez and Kambosos are happy that the fight will proceed.

Let's wait for the official date from Matchroom, hopefully it can still be salvage for this year.

Aren't these boxers are good in trash talk already? I guess what's lacking here is the commitment of the promoter to make this fight happen, they were too greedy looking for a big revenue as if this will be the last fight of both boxers, they should also take consideration on the damage they made, they have postponed this fight many times and that's the reason why this fight does not anymore gain support for the fans.

. So now we can move on and see Matchroom taking over in promotion. For sure Eddie Hearn will not disappoint us boxing fans.

Lopez and Kambosos would each receive decent paydays from the initial Triller deposit of $1.2 million, with Lopez receiving $780,000 and Kambosos receiving $420,000, ESPN reported. A lawsuit by the two fighters against Triller could potentially net them more money, closer to the original payments of $3,911,700 to Lopez and $2,106,300 to Kambosos that would have come from the original bid of $6.018 million. Then, if the Matchroom bid of $3.506 million winds up bagging the fight, Lopez will receive $2,278,900 and Kambosos would net $1,227,100 from Matchroom.

Both fighters already receive the easy money :D

Triller is a new player, and this is their expensive lesson if they want to continue in the boxing business. Anyway, it's unfortunate that this fight takes too much time to be realized, and with the new promoter, next month would be the earliest date since they need to prepare the venue etc. Perhaps late Nov or early Dec.

Yes, and it shows that even though they won the bid and the infrastructure to commit to this fight, due to their inexperience, they've lost a chunk of money in the end.

So nothing is lost for both fighters, they will still be rewarded handsomely, and then they can go punch each other, literally. December will not that bad, at least the long overdue fight will be realized now.

Kambosos is the winner in this controversy, I mean he got no belt and he already got that kind of amount which usually receive only by champions.

Triller got messed up on this maybe because of the inexperience of handling big fights and now that Matchroom has come into the picture i think all will be well and we could see them fight this December.

Much better if he got the belt because beating someone like Lopez will catapult you to instant celebrity status, anyway the fight has been reset if I am Kambosos I will be disappointed because I want a title fight and am ready to be a champion it's a good decision that the organization awarded the fight to Matchroom, now there's no way will Matchroom will delay the fight, they are aware of the many controversies and they will handle this effectively, the month of December is a good date for a big fight like this.

I hope we will not be disappointed for this fight, we have been waiting for so long as we deserve a good fight, a fight that is not one-sided only, a fight that we can see both fighters are willing to give everything they have for the belt, for a long preparation, I expect them to be fully conditioned already.

Under a new promotion, they will try to make this fight happen on its scheduled date and time, it's not smart anymore if there's another postponement of the fight, it will ruin the reputation of the promoter and the fight itself. They are fighters who are fighting for a championship belt, it's given already that they will train hard and will give us an entertaining fight, the only problem in this fight is the delaying tactics to gain more sales which hopefully will be solved under a new promoter.

“I am hearing the date of the fight could be November 13. I am ready to fight today or any date Eddie Hearn says. I am not the one who has been postponing the Lopez v Kambosos fight.”

The latest news according to Kambosos himself is that the fight will be made in November 13.


https://fightnews.com/kambosos-lopez-on-nov-13/122250

It's still tentative date though, just a month away from today, not sure if this is viable. But we all know that they have been training for a year now and fans are eagerly waiting for it to happen this year. Both are confident to win, so let see how it goes next month.

They are under a new promoter so let's hope that this will finally push through.

The fight should happen this year, they still have time and since they have been training for this fight, one month from now is already enough for them to prepare for that fight. However, since it's just tentative, I think we should wait for the final announcement.

The latest news according to Kambosos himself is that the fight will be made in November 13.

Lopez and Kambosos fight has been long overdue. Their fight has been rescheduled several times already and honestly it's quite frustrating most especially to the boxers side. The past scheduled fights were postponed due to the date of the match was set right after the fight of Mayweather and Logan. They had to set another date which was eventually cancelled as well because of quarantine protocols.

What's interesting to read and I'm not aware of it, is that George Kambosos manager works in Triller. And yet when the fight with Triller was scrapped, Peter Khan chooses side and resign with the Triller management group and stick with Kambosos. I guess it's just business for this guys and there is loyalty or something. As majority of you have said, this is long overdue and it's so frustrating to see the original fight being cancelled many times. But finally, we have a date in our hand and hopefully this time, the fight is going to happen.

^^ And with that said, hmm, I'm started to lean on Kambosos to make an upset here, LOL.

The odds are very attractive and who knows, George has so much time in this side to study Lopez  that him and his team has somewhat devise a strategy on how to beat Lopez here.

So the match is still intriguing that I'm tempted to put a small bet on Kambosos now.

If it's not good for the promoter, this is not good for the boxer as well, if the fight will happen, it should benefit both parties (fighters and promoters) and that has to be ensured by the new promoter of the fight that it will not be cancelled anymore and they have enough revenue to make this fight profitable.

For now, the decision is on the promoters, not the boxers.

If the November 13th date is when the Teofimo vs. Kambosos Jr fight will take place, Hearn needs to announce it already because that’s only a month away.

To hype a fight like this, it’s going to take a lot of work because the fans aren’t demanding Teofimo fight Kambosos. This a fight that Teofimo chose instead of fighting a rematch with Vasily Lomachenko

Why not?

George is a decent fighter, we might not have heard him before, but looking at his previous fight in youtube, he seems to be a good fighter with a good heart.

So definitely he could be a live dog here, 6-1 underdog, that is already a very attractive for us. Even a small bet will yield good results. But I still wanted to see the official weigh-in so see them during face-off, 2 brandish fighter, hopefully there will be no scuffle and put all their energy in the fight.

Teofimo Lopez vs George Kambosos Jr. Odds
Fighter   Odds
Teofimo Lopez   -1000
George Kambosos Jr.   +550

It's only me or not the odds looks not fair for Lopez? Both of boxer are had good record and undefeated, I would expect the odds was -500 for Lopez and +250 for kambosos. I was one of Lopez fans, but looking for the odds it seems I don't see any reason to not bet Kambosos in this fight. He's good boxer and people were underestimating him, there's a good chance will be upset IMO.

And as the fight goes closer, I'm leaning more of a Kambosos upset here. Me too, I'm a Lopez fan, but maybe he is on a slippage as he might underestimate this Australian. On the other hand, Kambosos might be planning a good strategy with this team including his manager on how to beat Lopez. Teofimo didn't really put a beating on Loma, it's that Loma is injured, but Loma won rounds in the middle round up to the 12 rounds and maybe he could put up a good plan to outsmart Lopez here.

Just to spice things up, video of Lopez confronting Devin Haney in the Martin vs M. Garcia fight, in which Mickey was upset by Sandor Martin via a majority decision. Devin Haney is also another champion that has been calling Teofimo Lopez as well.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPtq781xoF4

Yeah I saw that video they are made for each other both fighters like to trash-talk, and here is the interview to Teofimo's father talking about the fight against Haney after the Kambosos fight as if his son is very sure that he can beat Kambosos, he is very sure that the deal will go on and his son can easily beat Haney, they have to beat Kambosos first, it will not going to be an easy fight Kambosos is all heart into this fight he is an underdog but he can always pull an upset so we'll see.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pCnivKDXhM

Yeah Teofimo and his father are really confident that they are going to beat Kambosos.

But there's some interesting point that Sr said, if Haney wanted a piece of his son, it soon be done the soonest. Maybe early 2022 as Teofimo is having a hard time now making the 135 lbs cut. I said interesting because it might be issue later if Teofimo will have a hard time squeezing his frame to 135 lbs and he was to dehydrate himself and it could be an advantage to Haney.

Anyhow, let's wait for the Lopez vs Kambosos result first and then we can speculate who's really need for Lopez. Haney might be the front runner though.

Unified Lightweight Champion Teofimo Lopez (16-0, 12 KOs) will finally make his maiden title defense of his WBA, IBF, WBO, and The Ring belts against George Kambosos Jr (19-0, 10 KOs) at Hulu Theater, Madison Square Garden, New York, on Saturday, November 27 – live worldwide and exclusively on DAZN.

^ That's nice. Matchroom with Eddie Hearn really did a good job when they cop this fight from under the rug of Triller. They've set the fight for this year and guess where it's going to happen, it is going to be in Madison Square Garden, New York. Lots of fans of Teofimo from NY and outside for sure are going to travel and watch this fight. And for sure Australians in NY too are not going to let this pass.

For Triller: this is how you set up fight, Lol. Felt sorry for them for losing big money here, but they didn't do their job.

If it's not good for the promoter, this is not good for the boxer as well, if the fight will happen, it should benefit both parties (fighters and promoters) and that has to be ensured by the new promoter of the fight that it will not be cancelled anymore and they have enough revenue to make this fight profitable.

For now, the decision is on the promoters, not the boxers.

Yes sir, we finally have a date, It will be November 27.

It's like just over a month from today, so everyone get ready for this fight as there are a lot of fireworks just by looking at the history of trash talk between the two.

So far no odds yet, however, sport bookies has still a lot of time to list this fight.

The initial betting line shows the Lopez is a 6-1 favourite to win this fight against George Kambosos.

This is similar to the odds of Herring (champion) vs Stevenson at 8-1 odds currently.

So again, for those who loves to put money on the underdog because of a bigger pay but bigger risk, maybe this match will be a good one again. Lopez is good but Kambosos is also very touch and durable fighter and has earn his right to be a mandatory for Teofimo's belt. So let's see if the odds are going to swing as the fight gets closer.

If you can put a parlay on the two underdogs, that would give you a good payday once they both win.

Today, we will witness the fight of Herring vs Stevenson, so let's see if that x8 off of Herring would give money to the lucky bettors who trust him to defend his title.

Here is the latest interview from Teofimo Lopez, fight will be on the 27th already:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bLE3_HZCj0

He said that he is going to massacre George Kambosos and will knock him out in round 1.

Really confident that he will going to finished Kambosos by a brutal knock out. Then he is talking about to move to 140 lbs so maybe we can't see him and Loma.

He has to do what he said, talking too much does not help at all, I know he is good but Kambasos is not an ordinary fighter that he could just toy in the ring. I guess it's telling me that Kambasos really have a good chance here, he is playing mind games hopefully Kambasos will not fall for that, and instead, he will work hard to dethrone Lopez who is underestimating his capability.

Odds is 6.40 for Kambasos, let's grab it.

He is such a big mouth that sometimes when you listen to him, you get irritate with all the bruhaha coming from his mouth, self glorified boxer. If he wanted to be one of the greats in the 135 lbs division, he should wait for Loma, Davis, Haney and Ryan Garcia and clean the division up before moving to 140 lbs.

He is so confident as he hasn't experienced a defeat yet, beating Loma was actually the reason why he is more confident now but I guess Loma deserves a rematch because he is not fully healthy the last time they meet, and you are right if he is really strong, he should fight the names you've mentioned and prove to the world that he is the best by beating them.

^^ I don't think Lopez has that in his fight. For him the business with Loma is done, he has beat him "fair and square" in the ring. So as much as Loma wanted to get a rematch, I don't think that Lopez will give one unless there are more $ in the table for him.

And with his big win against Loma, he is on the top of the division. But he already gave a hint that maybe after this fight he will move up to 140 lbs because there is big money there, against the unified champion Josh Taylor.

If he is smart and he still believes that he can beat Loma, then I think he should give him a chance since it's also a big fight and he has the edge as he already beat Loma once unlike if he move to 140 lbs and face the champion, he might lose and that would not help him going forward.

It's more on business than pride. I'm sure that Lopez would just fight whenever there's huge money involved. Most boxers focus on earnings than creating a name because some of them consider this field as a business and not a profession to pursue. However, I'm still hoping that they could make this match more exciting.

Here is the latest interview from Teofimo Lopez, fight will be on the 27th already:

"He's smoking, drinking and eating rubbish. He's going to all these events like he's a groupie following his favorite band. That's not the behavior of a champion. He says his body is a temple, but he's a fraud and I'm ready to expose him."

So here's my Kambosos has to say against Lopez:


https://www.boxingscene.com/kambosos-lopez-going-all-these-events-like-groupie-ill-expose-this-fraud--161857

So he is in Australia, but going to US now for this fight. Kambosos seems to be relax and finally we are going to see this fight. So after the Canelo fight, this is the most intriguing match that we need to watch.

Current odds in sportsbet:

Lopez: 1.08
Kambosos: 6.40

if you have good feeling about kambosos here, betja has 7.70 odds on him, while lopez is at 1.11. it seems bookies have high regards to lopez in this match. if this will be an upset, don't know how lopez will take the loss, if in case kambosos will beat him.
it's tempting to bet on kambosos here. let's see after another week if the odds will change...

It's more on business than pride. I'm sure that Lopez would just fight whenever there's huge money involved. Most boxers focus on earnings than creating a name because some of them consider this field as a business and not a profession to pursue. However, I'm still hoping that they could make this match more exciting.

Yeah! more likely it's all about the money in the end just like when Casimero asked if he was willing to fight Inoue without any payment, he answered: "that cannot happen, money should be there of course". Most of the boxers just make it more exciting when they trash talk each other before the fight to sell as much pay per view. This is how the true nature of boxing where real cares are on the payment they could get on the fight, that's why we always see a long negotiation when huge money is on the table.

Of course it's business now, and this is 'professional prize fighting', it's their job to make money out of it. And if they can extend it to get more through trash talking for more attraction in PPV then they will do it. Only in the Olympic boxing wherein you will see the pride of a certain boxer. But in pro-fights, it's all for the money baby as Floyd said.

Not only boxers are after for the money that they can get from the fight but their respective promoters as well.
Actually, the promoters are the reason why a certain fight can push thru.
It depends on how they see the fight, if it can sell or not, that's why they turned down some possible  good matches.
At the end of the day, it depends on the promoter if they will accept the fight or not.
And once the promoter accepted their fight, it is now their boxer's turn to promote the match, whether resorting to trash talk or not.

‘He’s scared of Kambosos’
Kambosos’ upcoming opponent Teofimo Lopez wasn’t spared the Aussie star’s fury - with Kambosos insisting the American had been running from their matchup.

He believes that it’s not just him, but also other fighters, that think Lopez is avoiding the fight.

“You’ve got the undisputed 140 pound champion of the world Josh Taylor in a recent interview saying, ‘I think he (Lopez) is scared of Kambosos, I think he fears him’. And obviously, Devin Haney said the same thing,” Kambosos said.

~snip~
What do you think about the statement of Kambasos that Lopez was scared of him?

^ That is a part of could it be their marketing plan, throwing such statement to get people interest and can able to support them not even inside the ring. Let us see if where Kambosos it goes, Lopez still have a great experience and I think that is not a reason that Loez will lose at this fight and it seems the fight is near, it should be next week and I hope I can able to see their fight on a live channel or any platform services they have used.
However, do you know a gambling casino that has an alive show one on this event, take note just for free?

Yeah, and he is playing mind games with Teo Lopez. And as the fight gets close, they are in the stage wherein it is a mental game now.

Kambosos though is still a huge underdog in this match so let's see if he really has the tools to beat a good power boxer in Lopez and hope that his chin will hold to, because once Lopez touch that chin, he will feel the power and successful all his plan and strategy will change.

They can still throw some trash talks to gain attention from boxing fans.
Only few days left and we will see if this fight is a real toe-to-toe fight.

Also, hard to find free streaming for this fight.
What I usually do is just read the live round per round analysis of boxing analysts, where you can find online.
So you have idea what's going on if you can't watch it live.
You can watch it after the fight though for free.

Yes, that's exactly what I think. Every boxer who has an upcoming fight will find a way to sell the fight, whatever they say is just to promote the fight and we should not take it personally because these are not only good fighters, they are also good businessmen. With the huge money they can make in PPV if more people will buy the subscription, of course, they'll try to hype it a little bit more, and the fact that this fight has been cancelled many times, it's just understandable that Kambasos will not allow it to be cancelled again.

 I mean this fight should have happen many months ago and maybe boxing fans has gotten tired of this one. So it make sense for Kambosos to sell the fight in his native Australia so that many of his fans will buy the tickets PPV.

Lopez though is quiet now, and the next time that we will see them together is the weigh in.

And I'm still expecting a lot of fire works and trash talking during their face-off.

I hope the long wait is worth it, I lost count of the delays, Lopez is planning to fight Haney when this fight is not yet finished, he is so sure that he will win the fight, Kambosos is a good well deserve fighter you don't overlook Kambosos he is putting Kambosos to shame by making him look a weak fighter, I hope Kambosos wins the fight so he will not underestimate good fighters like Kambosos, he thinks he is invincible, bypassing his opponent.

I expect Kambosos to really put up a good show in the beginning, maybe going toe to toe with Lopez and trying to test Lopez chin and resiliency.

But I don't think it will be enough though, Lopez is too good here.

So I'm not seeing an upset by Kambosos, and maybe this could be a tko/ko win by Lopez late.

With the fight that is less than a week to finally come, I think we should bump this thread.

What do you think about the statement of Kambasos that Lopez was scared of him?

I didn't expect that the fight is fast approaching and the long wait for it is almost over. I still put my hope for Kambosos though Lopez seems silent yet well prepared. Kambosos is underrated but lots of people are also betting on him. I do not doubt that it will be a tough yet exciting match this year.

Lopez is good but I'm looking for an upset, I think Lopez is just overrated while Kambasos is underrated, so I will follow what I believe and I will trust the underdog Kambasos to teach Lopez a lesson.

The fight is nearing, we will find out if your prediction is correct.

I'm not going to miss this match, there are so many delays on this match and I'm sure it's worth it after these delays, Lopez has many plans in the future and so is Kambosos both fighters are with great potential this has the making of a great fight and if the match is close there could be rematch it's only 6 days to go, let's see if this will become a fight of the year candidate.

We have witnessed some good fights this year already, so let's hope this fight will not disappoint us. In order for this fight to be a candidate of the fight of the year, it has to be competitive, and it would be nicer if the fans will be surprised that the underdog will upset the favorite which is Lopez.

2 days more before the fight .


Already placing bets for Lopez as he will surely win this fight , any thoughts from Kambosos fans here? ;D

This might last for couple of rounds but surely it is Lopez who will get the win.

This might last for couple of rounds but surely it is Lopez who will get the win.

This will be an easy fight for Lopez if he can control the fight in the early rounds. All he needs to do is give that Australian boxer a wake-up punch to let him see the difference between them. I've been watching boxing fight for over a decade now, I saw when the boxer started to fight in the ring and when both of them throw some punches, you can see one of them is hurt by just taking some jabs from their opponent and that's what the difference I'm talking about. Lopez has that kind of power and when it hits the chin of his opponent, that would be a good nap for them.

So this is going to be a war, haven't place my bet yet though.

Are you with the favorites here?

I think I wanna play a bit and I will take Kambasos to win via decision, that 18.00 odds is so special.
What do you think?

Here is the weigh-in:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IN1GMPCEHVc

Again, both of them made the limit so there's no problem.

And again, another heated argument, but for me this is done to hype the fight because this is almost a year in the making. I have Lopez here by knock out.  ;D. Best of luck to those who are going to bet and take a risk.

this is true, this is like a year-long in the making so they should not disappoint their fans here. and give a very good toe-to-toe fight inside the ring. a lot are guessing this will not go the distance.
they are not yet done with their arguments huh! maybe after the fight one will keep his lips sealed. let's see who will be silent after this.

They need to hype the fight with all the delays some people are fed up with the delays, Lopez has a lot of plans after this fight, he thinks that this is an easy fight for him, I'm sure Kambosos is well motivated to win the fight because of Lopez attitude, both fighters love to engage I don't see this fight ending in a decision, let's see how it will turn out after a year of delays.

After all the controversies, finally, we are going to see this one happening on the weekend. Lopez will try to impress the boxing community by knocking out Kambosos but on the other hand, George will also try to make a name for himself by beating Lopez, an interesting/exciting fight we have in the weekend  :).

I have the fight going the distance and threw a few dollars for Kambosos to win by decision.

@coin-investor, hope you can post a facebook livestream link for this fight.

Yup, at least this weekend, we will get to see another great and exciting match as others have said, this have been delayed many times, but finally, we will have to see them square in the ring.

And Lopez says that there will be no handshake, or at least he is making this fight personal because of all the trash talking they have for almost a year now.

Looking also for some free livestream link if available for us boxing fans.

^^ Damn, that is a nice odds right there, it's too enticing and attractive to bet on Kambosos.

But I don't know if he has the capability to beat Lopez tomorrow night. I mean upsets happen, but I don't think it will happen against Lopez as he is too smart for Kambosos. Anyhow, for sure there will be bettors, specially Australian who are going to back up their boy here. But smart money should be going for Lopez, huge bet for that small odds but for a whale it is worth it.

If I may add the odds for Lopez

Lopez by KO - 1.49
Lopez by decision - 3.10

So the KO odds is very small so we need to put big money here to somewhat feel some winnings.

I'm also looking at Winner & round range, perhaps you might find the odds here attractive for Lopez.

How about Lopez by KO between rounds 10-12? That's 5.20 for now, and it will increase once you boost that odds.

Lopez by decision with 3.10 is also a good one if you believe the fight will go to distant.
Just wondering, what time will be the main event in our timezone?

The fight between Kambosos and Lopez has not started yet but the excitement already build-up, for a live telecast of the fight check out this live feed the supporting bouts are also good

https://www.facebook.com/103798145285810/videos/630828154615125

Damn!

Kambosos's big punch really hurt Lopez, bloody on his nose and left eye. I thought after round 10 when Kambosos knocked down he doesn't have the legs anymore, but he can recovered quickly and fight like in prime conditions. This upset is very unexpected for me, congratulations for people who bet Kambosos via decision. 18.00x odds is very high  ;D

That Lopez win against Loma was a fluke, that's what I believe for a long time (it's just me) and going to this fight, Kambosos have a great chance of dethroning the champ because of experience factor. Loma was the biggest name Lopez have faced in his young career if not for that injury (to be debated) the outcome might have been different  ;D.

That overhead right did damage for Kambosos and Lopez has not adjusted throughout the fight.
