Via Chris Williams: Bill Haney believes unified lightweight champion George Kambosos Jr fought hard and managed to shoot back his opponent when he was hit.
Kambosos .’s ego-boosting instincts Wanting to attack immediately would be the key for Haney to defeat him.
The consequence of Kambosos (20-0, 10 KOs) being a boxer with an oversized ego is that he could be lured by traps from WBC lightweight champion Haney and eventually get knocked out.
Having a big ego like Kambosos can be a positive thing. Ultimately, however, that will be his downfall, starting June 4 when he faces American talent Haney (27-0.15 KOs) in the main event at the Stadium. Marvel in Melbourne, Australia.
Kambosos fighting in front of his 50,000 Australian fans will lead to his ego and pride, making him want to retaliate instantly every time Haney touches him with shots.
Off the field, Kambosos is entertaining to listen to how he’s built himself up with the fans, but that stuff doesn’t help when you’re fighting.
Kambosos is excellent at self-promotion, but it’s a different story when you’re in the ring with a strong A-lister like Haney. Bragging won’t help Kambosos.
Devin = Venus Flytrap
Haney would be the equivalent of a Venus flytrap, luring the Kambosos with dashes and right-handed swings. Once the ‘ego of the Emperor’ appears, he will attack immediately, falling into Devin’s trap.
Haney will lure Kambosos with a light job, and when he wants revenge, he’ll fall back into Devin’s trap on June 4th.
“That’s 500 people, and they’re all going to be against me,” Devin Haney said Top boxing about how he started his fighting career in Tijuana, Mexico.
“I will have to go there thinking I have to close. I can’t put it in the judges’ hands.
“It wouldn’t make any difference,” Haney said when asked if he could perform the same in front of 40,000 people in Australia as he did in front of 500 in Tijuana.
“I fought in front of 500, 1000, 2000 people, booed me and the whole place against me, I had to silence the crowd,” Haney said.
The huge crowd of Kambosos supporters that will appear at Marvel Stadium will lead to Kambosos’ egotistical tendencies developing, making him an easy prey for Haney to hunt.
Devin dissected Kambosos
“We’ve dissected Kambosos and know what he’s going to do, when he’s going to do it, how he’s going to do it and why,” Haney said.
“Kambosos is against the ego. Whatever you’re going to do, he’ll be right back,” said Bill Haney. “It could be a good thing, or it could be a bad thing. It depends on how you bait him. “
“He and his team made sure there was a rematch clause,” Haney said. “If he loses, we will have to do it again in Australia.
“If I can beat you once, I can beat you twice,” Haney said.
