Kambosos Confident in Lomachenko Bout Despite Critics' Doubts"
In a bold assertion, George Kambosos Jr. declares his confidence in defeating Vasily Lomachenko on May 12 for the vacant IBF Lightweight Title. The upcoming clash follows Kambosos' remarkable upset against Teofimo Lopez, making him the former Unified Lightweight Champion. However, critics question his form after consecutive losses to Devin Haney, coupled with a controversial majority decision win over Maxi Hughes. Kambosos, rooted in a "Russian kind of style," expresses familiarity with Lomachenko's approach, asserting his readiness for the three-division champion. Lomachenko, hungry for redemption after a disputed loss to Haney, diverted his attention to the Australian fighter. Despite the Ukrainian's desire for undisputed status, Kambosos aims to replicate his underdog victory against Lopez. Paulie Malignaggi, however, doubts Kambosos' chances and suggests retirement if he falls short against Lomachenko. The former world champion sees an "embarrassing night" for Kambosos, prompting a heated exchange between the two fighters. Kambosos fires back at Malignaggi, highlighting the Italian's decline since 2013 and questioning his relevance in recent years. The verbal sparring intensifies as Kambosos points out Malignaggi's losses to Shawn Porter and Danny Garcia, culminating in a stoppage by Sam Eggington. Despite the exchange, Kambosos remains focused on the impending bout with Lomachenko, eager to prove his doubters wrong and solidify his position in the lightweight division. As the boxing world awaits the showdown between Kambosos and Lomachenko, the verbal jabs outside the ring add an extra layer of intrigue to an already highly anticipated contest. #GeorgeKambososJr #VasilyLomachenko #PaulieMalignaggi #Boxing #LightweightTitle #LomachenkoVsKambosos #SportsTalk #BoxingChampion
