So Kambosos demand to Haney for a rematch that will settled in the next November, but many of boxing fans didn't want this to happen due to poor Kambosos's performance [1] There's a speculation around that Tank will face Garcia in the end of year, I guess Haney would fight a weaker boxer since the best boxers in Lightweight division have a schedule or political issues, probably Richard Commey or Isaac Cruz could happen.
Thank you for everyone for giving your own thought and prediction about this match, time to lock this thread.

^^ Because Kambosos was the mandatory of the IBF belt that Lopez hold that time. So he is obliged to fight him. Kambosos beat Lee Shelby to become the mandatory challenger for Lopez then. But we all know what happens next as Kambosos won in a split decision.
Now, he has to defend it against Haney this coming Sunday. Well there's nothing wrong in betting the champion here as the underdog, maybe he can pull it off again.
Kambosos is undoubtedly the one who was the favorite to win this fight and it was shown, at least for me he was, but Haney who was looking for everything, the victory was good for him, for me he lacked a lot to give, I don't know if the player's state of mind influenced being able to have some kind of repercussion, but Kambosos' style is unique, despite the efforts of HANEY it did not look as wanted, particularly I think there is still a lot left for him, he must improve some technical aspects, not only is strength what should prevail in boxing, but intelligence is undoubtedly one of the main characteristics to win.Now, he has to defend it against Haney this coming Sunday. Well there's nothing wrong in betting the champion here as the underdog, maybe he can pull it off again.

As was a big possibility, Haney would bank on his reach advantage. This was mainly how Kambosos was defeated. Kambosos never had the chance to really exchange blows with Haney. Haney was satisfied not being hurt but not also hurting the opponent for as long as the points are in his favor. He came into the ring as a practical boxer, probably not even planning on schooling or knocking out Kambosos. He was there to simply make points and win however boring it might mean to the fans and everyone else.
In any case, what would be next for Haney if the rematch does not happen? Who would be more challenging for him? Lomachenko, Tank Davis or King Ryan?
Let's put it this way, Haney just sign a contract with Bob Arum's TR, George Kambosos is also in that banner and so he Loma. And with that, it's going to be a win-win for TR, either way it's all going to be in-house first. So it by chance Haney won the rematch, then Loma will go back because all the belts are all in the line. He can't refused that offer.
And let Davis, Ryan fight. I think Teo Lopez will have a first crack anyways, as he is also with TR. Just sad that how boxing politics works, in house fight first.
Agreed. The politics is preventing the sport from giving the best superfights for the fans. Similar to Pacman versus Floyd Mayweather, it came very late. Amir Khan versus Kell Brook, also very late. However, Devin Haney who is only 23 years old, I would not disapprove to see him fight Lomachenko and Lopez to build his name before fighting Tank Davis and King Ry who are also only 27 and 23. Lightweight championship boxing will certainly be very entertaining for the next 5 years hehehe.
Yes, would love to se that fight, Haney vs Loma and Lopez. Just a question on who is going to get a crack first. Either one of them will be surely bring more PPV and live gates as they are bankable as well. Just up to Top Rank as what they think the best options, money wise. Davis can Ryan can also fight, another great match for us. And so this 135 lbs is pretty much stack up right now and this can carry over if this 4 to 5 fighters decided to move to 140 lbs in the next years.
I'm thinking that Lopez will come first on the list because Lomachenko is still unavailbe due to the Russian-Ukraine conflict as he's also defending his country, Ukraine. As you said, either one of them will surely bring viewers and yes Gervonta-Garcia is also good but the latter still have a pending fight and if he will win this time with impressive result then I think he is ready to face the Tank.

^^Good numbers but I do agree that they will have a hard time replicating that in the second fight because majority find the match boring and a snoozer match. We wanted a toe to toe battle, but Haney's style is not that so we have to accept that. And since he won lopsided, I think it will be the same outcome in the second fight and maybe they won't reach 1 million again in terms of viewership, in my opinion. But if George wanted to exercise and Haney will cooperate giving him a rematch then so be it.
The fight was like the usual patient fight we always watch where both fighters don't let their guard down and didn't let their opponent get to spot their weakness, especially Devin Haney who managed to put pressure on the defense and give George the struggle to hit him. Since the fight didn't end with K.O, there's a high chance that they will eventually see each other inside the ring. maybe a fight or two from both fighters and when they successfully win it, they will be given a chance to have a re-match if they continue winning in their next bouts.
A rematch looks really worrisome in terms of marketing. It was boring fight and no matter what hardcore boxing fans might say that Haney displayed skills, it is not enough financially. It is still the casual fans that decides the market and they prefer exciting fights like the usual Mexican style of boxing. I also expect Top Rank and ESPN trying hard to convince George Kambosos to have a tune up first and let Haney face another fighter too like Lomachenko, Stevenson, etc or at least maybe the rematch happens in a different location probably in the US.
I agree, I hope that Bob Arum can sway George not to fight immediately, build his name against a cherry pick opponent and then Haney face guys like Lomachenko in the US. Doesn't make sense for George to jump with Haney because we've seen that it was a one side fight as he has no answer for Haney style of jabbing and then playing defense by docking and hugging him most of the times.
Exactly! There's no need to rush because there won't be some difference if Kambosos decides to fight Haney after getting some rests after all that rigorous trainings he had, if he will rush then I bet Haney will win again comfortably and that will give him into a negative position. I know what's he thinks because it's takes a lot time to process that first he got but he needs to move on and start fighting someone else to gain new experience before deciding whether it's time for a rematch or not.

For those who wanted to see the numbers in this fight and how lucrative it is and maybe this could be another reason to go for a rematch:
https://www.boxingscene.com/haney-kambosos-averaged-1322000-viewers-peaked-1355000-on-espn--166810
So that's a clear 1 mil viewership, not sure how it will translate but this is big for these 2 fighters. So many has anticipated this fight, however, if the rematch is held, I don't think that they will get the same numbers. Because it might be another dominant display of Haney's techniques and bring George to a clinic with his jabs.

Nielsen Media Research revealed Tuesday that their 12-round main event attracted an average audience of 1,322,000 and a peak audience of 1,351,000. Haney, who won a unanimous decision, and Kambosos boxed on Sunday afternoon at Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, Australia, but their bout aired live Saturday night in the United States.

Pretty much disappointed on the performance of Kambosos here. He was really schooled by Haney's super jab and defense as he was not hit clean in this fight. You can see his face still clean after 12 rounds while George face is somewhat battered by that stiff jab the Haney throws all throughout the fight. I guess Kambosos 15 minute of fame is over now. The belt is going back to the US and for sure American fighters are now going to chase Haney.
The total scores say it all, not even close. Yeah, we were expecting that Kambosos with his aggressiveness will give Haney trouble, but it didn't happen, it was a one-sided fight and I think there's no need for a rematch on this fight as it's very obvious that we will still see the same winner in the rematch.
Yes, but it seems that George Kambosos is going to execute the rematch clause and wanted to get his revenge and so most likely in the next 6 months or early next year we might see the rematch, he specifically says that it's on Australia again. But who knows maybe it's better for George not to fight in front of his fans and should go to US just like what he did when he upset Teofimo Lopez.
That's if Devin Haney will agree to give him a rematch, for sure Haney knows that it would be a total waste of time giving Kambosos his rematch because as you guys said, the score says it all. And if let's say that Haney will agree, I doubt he will agree to have the fight in Australia again. It would be held in Las Vegas where he lives, he is now the undisputed champion and Kambosos ain't got a voice now.
He don't have a choice, Kambosos confirmed that there is a rematch clause and Haney sign that contract. So if there is one person that will have to agree, that is Haney, otherwise Kambosos will go to arbitration similar to what Wilder and Fury went.
Of course, Kambosos is don'ts have voice, but then again, he gave Haney an opportunity and Devin has to honor the written contract and part of the negotiations. Whether we like it or not, and if ever the fight is going to be in Australia, it can still make fans buy that ticket because they wanted to see George again and hoping that he will win in the rematch.
If that's really the case then Devin Haney should reciprocate the opportunity that was given him by Kambosos but I think this time the fight would be held in Las Vegas or somewhere neutral on the both sides and not in Australia because he is now the pursuer of the title that Haney had. There's still a long way of talks about this rematch and I doubt it would happen next year if in-case it would happen.
June 07, 2022, 02:28:30 PM
This fight turned out to be too boring due to the tactics of Kambosos, who hoped for the whole fight on pressure, but Haney easily depart it and looked much more skillful in boxing. The revanche could have been different if Kambosos had prepared a different tactic, but now hardly anyone wants to see it.
I agree with you about other fights, but unfortunately Loma is still in the war and it is not known when he will be able to return to boxing.
I thought I'm the only one who felt the boredom while watching those 2 boxers fighting.I agree with you about other fights, but unfortunately Loma is still in the war and it is not known when he will be able to return to boxing.
I think that's what you can expect from a boxer who is more of a defensive one and a counter puncher. The audiences are also silent as well because nothing really is happening between the two.
No need for rematch for this one because it's boring (for me) and it would be better if Haney will fight another opponent. Maybe let's move on with the boring fight and wait for the Inoue-Donaire match.
It was smart boxing on Haney's part, but since Kambosos couldn't change his straightforward tactics throughout the fight or succeed with the tactics he had originally chosen, the fight really turned out to be boring. Plus, if we take into account the expectations from this fight (two boxers without defeats) and compare with the result, then of course this is a complete failure in terms of show.
Even the fans and the people who watched the fight surely knows that the promoter and boxers have failed to give a much more entertaining fight but what they saw is the exact opposite of what they expect and also their home boy was defeated in front of their eyes by a foreign challenger, Devin Haney.
Frankly, we expected that the Kambosos will be aggressive just like his previous fights and would gladly accept the challenge if Haney continues to push him into the corners. But then again, we didn't see it and Haney have won comfortably and almost unscathed.

He was there to simply make points and win however boring it might mean to the fans and everyone else.
However, it was the correct game plan for Haney because Kambosos is very good in timing his opponents if they are always going in very much similar to Teofimo Lopez. It appears Haney's father has learned from Lopez's fight more than Lopez and told his son not to make those mistakes hehehe. It is also very impressive that only at 23 years old, the young Haney has managed the mental pressure like an old veteran of boxing.
In any case, what would be next for Haney if the rematch does not happen? Who would be more challenging for him? Lomachenko, Tank Davis or King Ryan?
As far as the other Haney fights that I watched, this is the same Haney. This is not a different Haney, somebody who had made necessary adjustments against Kambosos. Haney always makes use of his long reach by his excellent jabs. He always effectively maintains the distance. That's why I thought Kambosos would really have to get inside and release his most powerful punches there. If not, he'd be like a sitting duck. But the fight is done and Kambosos is probably asking for a rematch.
And that is what Haney is saying even before the fight, at their first press conference that he will take away Kambosos best weapon. So we clearly se what he was saying, George is aggressive so he will make him off-balance if he goes inside by that stiff jab of his and not let him get inside. Very effective strategy up to the last round as Kambosos can't do anything about those jabs as he can't hit Haney clean with his power punches not like in the Lopez fight.

As much as we don't appreciate or at least doesn't like the way Haney fights, he took out Kambosos and becomes the undisputed. And now it seems that we look forward for a rematch. Again, could be a sleeper fight again but boxing fans are going to pay for this match again specially that it will still be held in Kambosos backyard.
The rematch is not exciting anymore, what's on the rematch that will make boxing fans to be excited again, and what will make them pay for the rematch, Kambosos just become all talk but he didn't show anything, he is totally outclassed I like both fighters to meet other fighters, and maybe in the future, they will meet again but an immediate rematch will not excite the boxing fans, the coming match between Inoue and Donaire can even eclipse and forget the fight.
Yup, you have a point. The rematch is not interesting anymore to see as the scores aren't that close enough, the fans tried to lift up Kambosos and cheer him to defend his title but he disappointed his fellow compatriots in his own backyard. We didn't see any aggressive Kambosos and it turns out that he's only full of talks when he is faced against the now undisputed champion, Devin Haney.

Again, could be a sleeper fight again but boxing fans are going to pay for this match again specially that it will still be held in Kambosos backyard.
The rematch is not exciting anymore, what's on the rematch that will make boxing fans to be excited again, and what will make them pay for the rematch, Kambosos just become all talk but he didn't show anything, he is totally outclassed I like both fighters to meet other fighters, and maybe in the future, they will meet again but an immediate rematch will not excite the boxing fans, the coming match between Inoue and Donaire can even eclipse and forget the fight.
They won't generate good revenue in this rematch because people already see who will win the fight. If only Kambasos gave a good fight, then maybe the rematch will be interesting, I think they should look for another match up, and as for Haney, I think there's lots of champions waiting for him.
That's better than going for a rematch and yet we will see the same result.
Kambasos can't beat a technical fighter, period. He is only good if his opponent is willing to fight him toe to toe.
This fight is just like Canelo vs Mayweather, though Canelo is great but he was shooled by Mayweather.
In fact, a good example is Floyd and Canelo, who also won the technical fighter in this match. Haney was really technical and played his own game throughout the whole fight, not letting his opponent down. The left straight was so fast that Kambasos couldn't even see these shots, but if we add the distance advantage, he set up a fully effective left straight game. I don't think much will change if there is a rematch. Favorite won and undefeated
