He couldn't again, could he? Last November, George Kambosos Jr pulled off arguably the upset of 2021. The 6-1 underdog beat Teofimo Lopez – conqueror of the great Vasiliy Lomachenko in his previous fight – via split decision at Madison Square Garden in New York to win the WBA (Super), IBF, IBO and Ring magazine lightweight world titles.
Lopez's battered and bruised face told the story of the fight far better than one of the three judges who somehow scored the fight for the well-beaten American. The 28-year-old Kambosos Jr dropped Lopez in the opening round and, though he had to come off the canvas himself in the 10th, the unheralded Australian's front-foot pressure kept Lopez at bay for much of that fight-of-the-year contender.
Devin Haney, meanwhile, retained his WBC strap with a wide points victory last time out against Jojo Diaz, a matter of days after Kambosos Jr stunned the world against Lopez. Nicknamed The Dream, Haney has long been tipped for greatest. His lightning hand speed and slick movement came to the fore in beating three-time world champion Jorge Linares two fights ago via unanimous decision for the best scalp on his record.
Haney has the reach and skill advantage, but if Kambosos Jr can box on the inside to the same effect as he managed against Lopez, he'll look to test his 23-year-old opponent's chin, and heart, in his home country. The winner will be the first undisputed world lightweight world title since 1990, with a rematch likely, given Lomachenko is currently tied up fighting for his country's survival after Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
The fight takes place over 12 rounds in the lightweight division at The Marvel Stadium, Melbourne, Australia. Boxing fans will be treated to a packed card featuring local hero Jason Moloney against Aston Palicte over 10 rounds for the vacant WBO International bantamweight title and 43-year-old big-hitting Lucas Browne, another Aussie, taking on Junior Fa for the WBA Oceania and IBF International heavyweight titles.
