so deadly, that virtually none of them landed? you're truly a talented 'contrarian', well played :clap:
If you are so sure that Kambosos is an easy fight for Haney then just sell your apartment and put the money on a Haney victory.

How many times did Haney knock Kambo down during that fight?

In which round did Haney knock Kambosos out?
oh that's right I forgot unless you knock your opponent down or out, it can't be a comfortable win.

in which round did Kambosos land any of that thunderous punching power? which round were his deadly attacks best displayed?

A comfortable win?

Who on earth would feel comfortable with a person infront of them trying to land that leather?

I see alot of talking from you but I have yet to see a photo of that big ticket bet for a Haney win. Maybe it's boxing and anything can happen?

If this is a sure thing then perhaps selling the house and placing a bet isn't a bad idea?
If a boxer is crowned as PFP champ like you did, I find it odd you think Kombosis even has a chance....or are you just hyping the fight....or, is Kombosis pfp#2?

I have no interest in hyping any fight. I am very happy for boxing to have a fighter like Haney who is worthy of the P4P #1 spot. Kambosos is a really great fighter, no Bgrade fighter would have been able to beat Teofimo. Kambosos in all his greatness just might have what it takes to beat Haney in the rematch but it's unlikely, stranger things have however happened.

In my opinion, there are 4 or 5 guys that beat Kombosis at 135. GK didn't beat a 100% Teo, but do give him credit.

So weird to look forward to the event, but not the main event.
I want to see a few of my countrymen fight on the undercard, but I don't really want to watch the main fight :maybe:
I probably won't switch it off when the main event comes on, but I think it will be harder to watch than their first fight.

Just my opinion, but I think besides Haney, Loma, Tank, R. Garcia, Pitbull Cruz, Frank Martin would all beat Kombosis. Zepada possibly too. In my eyes, JoJo Diaz is even with Kombosis. We can also now add Shak Stevenson towards the top of the list.

Maybe you want to add Teofimo and your mom to that list?

Looks ridiculous to me to be honest. Loma is ancient, lost to the man that lost to the man, a blown up featherweight.

Ryan Garcia has never had gutta enough to fight anyone.

Isn't Shakur fighting a weightclass below?

Don't know some of those other dudes but don’t remember them ever being the undisputed champion at that weightclass so what have they done for us lately?

Just giving my opinion since you asked on who I think are the top guys in the division. The ones at 135 now aside from up and comers above Kombosis are Haney Loma, Tank and Shak, who is here now. Loma isnt that old and honestly would make Kombosis look like he had 2 left feet while schooling him. Shak would also. Tank would KO him.
R. Garcia who knows. Great talent but an emotional rollercoaster.

Lets assume that you are right.

Then what a strange division. An upcoming fighter Teofimo beats the divisions top dog Loma who at the time is a top 10 p4p fighter and a former #1 place claimant. This upcoming fighter Teo then loses to underdog challenger Kambo in convincing fashion. And yet this fellow Kambo that beats him is no good and would lose to 7 other fighters in that division if he'd enter the ring with them.

You can't transfer this sort of situation to any other weight division. Beating Teo while losing to Haney arguably gives Kambo the #2 spot in his division so this is like saying that there are 7 dudes out there that would beat AJ, 7 dudes are out there that would beat Spence or Bud, 7 dudes at smw that would beat GGG. All of this sounds very unlikely so while it's possible that this is correct this would be a rather big statistical anomaly.

Such a big statistical anomaly occurring is unlikely so sure, Shak and Tank are hard dudes to beat but so is Kambo. Rather than this statistical anomaly having occurred it's more likely that you are just hating, we all dislike someone or their personality for some reason and that's all good, we shouldn't however let it cloud our judgments.

Oh and Kambo is all wrong for Loma, with his edge in power and mobility Kambo would ko Loma who really doesn't belong at that weightclass and never did.

There are a few boxers I dislike, but Kombo isn't one of them. Nothing other than my opinion.

Kombo KO's Loma? I don't bet often, but would take that bet. Actually made me chuckle.

Even Haney, although current undisputed champ, may have 2-3 guys better. Hopefully the best guys fight.

Boots at 147 may beat both Spence and Crawford, who knows? Every weight has question marks. Just because you have the belt, doesn't make it a fact you are the best, just the man to beat. In boxing we have politics, peds, weight issues, diva demands, cherry picks, injuries, style matchups, etc.

He has every right to be nervous. I think he is either going all guns and getting sparked early, or it's going to be a long night for him and us.

I read that team Kombosis got the ref they wanted, that will hopefully prevent clinches and force Haney to brawl more.

I don’t think that’ll affect Haney.

He’s a very smart boxer.
