[BOXING] George Kambosos vs Devin Haney - Undisputed Lightweight Title - June 5

[TravelMug]

If Kambasos has the power to KO Haney, he can.

Based on his record, he is only a 50% KO puncher, with 10 KO's only from 20 wins, while Haney has a 55.5% KO rate.

Kambasos may hurt Haney but could not KO him for sure.

In that case we gonna expect the fight to last long or to reach up to the officials decisions and it would be nice if one of them will dominate the others and somehow a way find to beat his opponent by knockout because that would be best thing to conclude the match and to win the fight.

There's a very high chance that this fight will go for 12 rounds rather than seeing a KO, I'm not saying that there's no chance for both boxers to have a KO win but both of them have almost the same record and capabilities. A 5.5% difference in KO history is not that much but as I said, a chance is a chance but it's really slim, IMO. We might see a consecutive exchanging of blows because both of them have a point to prove.

Haney is not known for his power, Kambosos though is his fight against Lopez shows that he has some serious power when he was able to knock down Lopez with that overhand right and everyone was surprised by that power behind. But it will be hard to knock out a defensive fighter in Haney. So yes, this could go in a full 12 round fight.

I somehow agree on that because Haney is much more known for being a defensive fighter than for his strength/power, however his power is more greater than Kambosos's, IMO. Kambosos may have defeated Lopez but it was a unanimous decision because Lopez also manage to knock him down somewhere in round 9 or 10. But yes, this fight may also end into the judges hand.

[mirakal]

Haney is more tactical he seldom makes a mistake and a good counter puncher.

This is what Lopez doesn't have. If we still remember how Lopez fought when he lose against Kambasos, he was so aggressive that he forget to pay attention to his defense, the country punches of Kambasos went through although at some point he hurt Kambasos but it wasn't enough to KO him.

Haney by decision is probably the result.

But the thing is, if he just make one single mistake in this fight, an aggressive Kambosos might take advantage of it. An old Linares almost knock out Haney in their fight, it's that Linares is tired late in the round that's why he didn't make a follow-up. So if that is Kambosos, then maybe it will be a knock out win. Yes, he is a technical fighter, no question about it, but Kambosos might counter it with his pure aggressiveness just like in the Lopez fight.

If Kambasos has the power to KO Haney, he can.

Kambasos may hurt Haney but could not KO him for sure.

Yes 50% is already a good percentage to pull a decent knockout, but Haney have more chances to pull a knockout victory over Kambosos together with his defensive capabilities to withstand Kambosos heavy punches. However, this fight is unlikely to result a KO and it will last until the 12th round and most probably end by a decision. I hope we can see more of a toe-to-toe fight on this one as both fighters have different skill set.

[serjent05]

I was watching the video of these two fighter and one thing I noticed is that Kamboso is the faster fighter.  His hand speed is way better than Haney maybe because Haney always considered being on the defense-first which is both a pro and cons in a fight.  I then search for some detailed stats explanation and I saw this one which I agree...

To highlight some explanations on this link:

In the fight (this is where it really matters):

• Kambosos’s chin has been tested and it passes the vibe check. Haney simply will not have enough power to make Kambosos worried, this I’m almost certain of. Haney has m “keep you cautious” pop. Teo had “you’re gonna get fortnite danced on and not be awake for it” power and Kambosos ate plenty of his shots clean without being phased. Mind you got dropped and came back to win the next 2 rounds.
• Kambosos has beaten Haneys trainer (Mickey Bey) 2 fights previously, this is a big feather in the cap for this fight because Mickey and Haney have similarities in style, particularly jab and back foot defence.
• Haney was getting figured out by JoJo towards the end with working around his Philly shell, I think kambosos will figure this out a lot quicker than JoJo. Haney tends to also lean to his outer side when shelling up, not a good idea when kambosos throws quick hooks off the jab.
• Haneys defence is far better when he has two feet planted and he can roll. He’s not as good at (still good though) defending on the fly, but Haney can’t be a still punching bag for the quick combinations that kambosos will throw for 12 rounds consistently.
  
• Haney has been proven to be chinny, whilst not dropped and to be fair not marked up that bad, Haney has been stumbled especially from fast combinations, Thats Kambosos’s bread and butter

Maybe this is somehow lean towards Kambosos' favor but if this fact shows inside the ring then we can probably see Kambosos winning the fight.

But of course, these things are nullified if Kambosos kisses the canvass early on in the fight.

Yeah, that's the thing, he is against Haney who is an undefeated fighter, so it's not gonna be easy for him as Haney for sure is going to move well on the court knowing how Kambasos would try to be more aggressive and so he can also make sure that the judges would not score in favor of Kambasos.

There's a reason why Haney is the favorite, in short he is the better fighter based on what majority thinks of this fight.

We will have to see, Haney doesn't have a good chin as I have said, and if Kambosos will touch that hard then we can see if Haney can readjust his gameplan or that power of Kambosos is enough to score a knock out victory for him.

But the bookies is leaning towards the defense of Haney and his accurately in counter that could win the fight for him. That's why he is the favorite. But we can't underestimate the champion here who is making his defense in his own soil.

That hand speed help him a lot during the Teo Lopez fight. Lopez has a decent hand speed, but Kambosos beat him to the punch. If he can do it against Haney, they I don't see him kissing the canvass and it could be the other way away.

Yes, Haney is 'chinny', so just imagine if that punch that hit Lopez that put him down is reproduce by Kambosos, I doubt that Haney can recover from that. Chinny fighter doesn't have a good recuperation time if they got knock down.

[Jawhead999]

Kambosos has beaten Haneys trainer (Mickey Bey) 2 fights previously, this is a big feather in the cap for this fight because Mickey and Haney have similarities in style, particularly jab and back foot defence.

I think this comparison are no longer valid since Bey's prime has passed when he fight against Kambosos, he was an active boxer on 2007-2014... after he lose from Kambosos, he never fought anyone anymore.

The interesting thing is Haney get exposed when he fought with Linares on a year ago, Linares throw quick combination of right and left punch to Haney on 10th rounds, Haney almost fell but he can still walk to the corners.

This could be an advantages to Kambosos as we know he's quick puncher, Haney wouldn't survived if Kambosos can throw a quick clean punches. However Haney has a good surprise punch, his left hook was insane.

Even if Kambosos have beaten Mickey Bey last 2019, it's not an outstanding win because that time Bey was already 35 years old and he's inactive in the boxing industry as he is only doing 1 fight every 2 years before he was defeated by Kambosos by a split decision. Haney and Bey's only similarities is their boxing style but in terms of power, it's clear that Haney has it more.

Haney himself knows that he don't have a strong chin and he also knew that if he will get caught by Kambosos's power punch, he won't be in a good situation that's why Haney is focusing on his defensive style rather than his power because that's just his only way to win a fight but he cannot be underestimated because we knew how accurate his punches are and Kambosos should also be aware of that. This will be a tough match to see this June, both of them have their own skill set so this will be interesting.

Helpful comparison @serjent05

Exactly mate! Haney will make sure that his punches will have the most score every round and avoid getting caught by Kambosos's punches when he is aggressive. Haney won't have a hard time dodging that heavy punches because he have the reach advantage so his accurate counterpunch will be enough if he will utilize it well when Kambosos is trying to reach within Haney's area.

[serjent05]

True that, but the author of the link I shared stresses the boxing style Mickey Bey might pass on Haney since Mickey Bey is currently Haney's trainer.  There might be some variation but obviously, the possibility of Bey's basic style to be seen on Haney is there, and that is where Kambosos get familiar with when he fights Bey.

The interesting thing is Haney get exposed when he fought with Linares on a year ago, Linares throw quick combination of right and left punch to Haney on 10th rounds, Haney almost fell but he can still walk to the corners.

This could be an advantages to Kambosos as we know he's quick puncher, Haney wouldn't survived if Kambosos can throw a quick clean punches. However Haney has a good surprise punch, his left hook was insane.

It is really dangerous when the fighter's previous fight exposes him. It simply gives his opponent a flaw that can be exploited.  I hope Haney had made arrangements to at least nullify this weakness that was exposed during his previous fights.

Well this one is going to be one of the biggest fights this year, because it will determine who the Undisputed Lightweight Champion of the World will be.  
Kambosos rekon he is more than ready for the fight and he will ruin his opponents career with this fight.  

He is mocking with Haney’s stuttering ..as if that has anything to do with his fighting skills.... so I hope Devin Haney kicks Kambosos's ass in this fight, because it is not cool to make fun of someone else's speech impediment.  

That is in really bad taste, I understand that fighters want to increase the number of people that watch this fight, but such a thing is unnecessary, whoever wins this fight will become the undisputed champion of the lightweight division, that is more than enough to attract the attention of all the fans, and if Kambosos wanted to bring more people by making some wild statements he could have chosen to do things differently, as if anything this is going to make a lot of people to switch sides and instead they will support Haney as they will never agree with the statements that Kambosos made.

He is playing some mind games, Kambasos understand how goo Haney is, and I believe that it was the same strategy he did to Lopez that's what Lopez wanted to KO him early and lose his focus on winning the fight using the right strategy. I hope Haney would not fall into this trap, he has to be more precise since he will be fighting in Kambasos's territory.

Well I suppose you are right, this seems like a strategy that Kambosos has used in the past and since it worked then he is not afraid of using it again, still it does not change the fact that such a thing is simply in bad taste, and that a lot of people are not going to like that he is willing to step so low to try to get an advantage, and as such some of the fans will switch sides and they will like to see him lose against Haney.

Well sometimes people will go to such extreme measures just to gain advantage or benefit themselves, they do not care what others thinks because they are so determined to get the win even if it's already out of the line. Kambosos will surely use that again because yes he will think that it would be efficient as it has worked the last time he used it. Hopefully Haney won't fall to that trap though.

Just to let you guys know, there will be a rematch clause according to this article:

The 23-year-old Haney’s legitimate ambition led to him signing contracts for what could be back-to-back fights against Australia’s Kambosos in his home country.

https://www.boxingscene.com/haney-i-inspire-young-old-guys-other-side-street-stuff-out-window--165748

So that's how confident in this fight, if he beats Kambosos, he will more willing to fight him again in his own soil and beat him the second time.

That's a good one, if there will be a home cooking in Kambasos home, then most probably Haney would have the same treatment in favor for him once the rematch will happen. But of course, we don't want to see a dirty officiating or judging because it's a disgrace of the boxing organization.

Another good thing is that we will see a great fight 2 times because of the rematch clause. It's like the Fury vs Wilder fight which even reach a trilogy and it was a high generating revenue fight. I'm sure I will not be bored watching this fight knowing how aggressive Kambasos is and he does have a good stamina to finish the 12 rounds if he would not be badly beaten by Haney.

If both will win in their home country then we will surely see a trilogy. If the fight is not boring, of course will draw the attention of the crowd and they'll make a lot of money on this fight. Too bad for Lopez, if only he beats Kambasos then he should be in this situation now. I will support these two fighters as they are both undefeated but one is just a heavy favorite to win.

It seems Lopez is scared to face Haney, that's why he choose Kambosos since he thought he will easily beat Kambosos... but it's not. He won over Loma on October 2020 and there's no fight until November 2021, 1 year is enough to setting up the fight against Haney to be honest.

Surely it will be interesting if both won in their home, even Kambosos or Haney lose in their first match, they're nothing to lose since they have a chance get back their titles on second match. Haney got my respect to attend the second match against Kambosos, as we know he's a favorite in this match.

Speaking the heavy favorite which is Haney, the odds is 1.52x right now... I don't think it's heavy favorite, because I've seen another boxer has below 1.10x odds.

Maybe, but if I would be Haney, I would choose a boxer who are holding a belt, and in that matter it's Kambasos who holds the belt now and while Haney think he has a great chance of winning, so choosing Kambasos is the right decision. However, he should not underestimate Kambasos as he was also the underdog in the Lopez fight and yet he stunned Lopez.
