^^ Yes, that's one of his biggest mistakes, he didn't let his hands go specially in the early rounds. And it's too late, maybe round 7 when he started to chase Devin, but Haney is already in the zone and comfortable, using his length so that George can't go inside. So if Kambosos will start hot like in the Lopez fight and swarm Haney, then he might have a chance to win. Otherwise, another easy fight for Haney, cruising automatic for a 12 round decision again and a place for a Loma fight next year.
This seems like the only chance that Kambosos has of trying to turn the fight on his favor, if he let Haney to get into the rhythm that he likes then he'll be in complete control of the fight and get an easy win, so he needs to get out there and try to get the win from the moment the bell sounds, now even with that kind of strategy getting the win will not be easy, but at least it will have a small chance to do so while at the same fans he will give the fans what they want.
Yes, one strategy that they might used in this fight and as I had said, Kambosos was successful doing that against Lopez in their fight, even knocking him down. And when Lopez try to rally late, George has build enough lead already. On the contrary, it was a opposite fight plan for him, he was slow and he started to attack in round 7. Maybe Haney's style is too difficult for him, or he really let Devin get comfortable. And even if this is a small chance as we see, at least he will have to try and do it. Instead of looking for a one punch knock out, which might not happen. So he needs to bring the fight to Haney, not that other way around.
Haney is different, he is very technical and he will not make a costly mistake that will make Kambosos capitalize. I think Haney is still gonna dominate here, his quickness and his defensive style is hard to break against a much slower fighter, Kambosos needs to be lucky in order to win here.
We can see that Haney is in fact the favorite to win this fight but if you were Kambosos how you would approach this fight in order to get the unlikely win? And it seems to me the only way to do something like this is by trying to bring the fight to Haney and make him uncomfortable so he cannot execute his better boxing technique, and even in that scenario I will give the advantage to Haney but I think there will be a slightly better chance for Kambosos to win the fight.
If we see it from that point of view, it's not a bad thing, on the contrary, I don't know how much impact it can have on the fans, everyone is considering Haney the winner, but I think based on what I know about boxing that apart from use intelligence, and the boxer who uses intelligence the most is the one who wins it, I think that here we have to give a lot of importance to the training that Kambosos is taking, I think that Kambosos will fight or not, and he is a boxer who knows He is preparing and I think that he will not lose such time, nor will he lose that energy, he wants to win, he can do any strategy that gives him victory, if this fight happens it will be very good.
Very interesting that Haney told the media that is favoring Ryan Garcia over Tank Davis if ever they will face each other in the ring.
“I don’t know. Right now, I’m favoring Ryan Garcia but Tank obviously has that one-punch knockout power. But Ryan does too. Ryan’s much bigger, Ryan’s faster but Tank got way more experience than him. I think that's a good ass fight.”
https://www.boxingscene.com/devin-haney-favors-ryan-garcia-over-gervonta-davis--169423I don't know what his basis is that he chose Ryan Garcia over Gervonta Davis. We never know unless these two named boxers will share a ring together but for me, I'll go with Davis. Both of them had the speed and power to KO any opponent, the difference between them is just that Ryan got the heigh and reach advantage while Davis got the experience. I think we will see this fight soon enough because their names keep on popping in the social media and Ryan is always calling for Davis.
Yes, maybe Haney see something in Ryan that he thinks we can overwhelm him. So I will give respect Haney for his opinion, he is the champion of this division and in the future he can either face both Ryan and Davis and perhaps has a game plan already. He doesn't have the power compare to the 2, but he had good boxing IQ and defense. So it's going to be a good fight. And chances are he will win this rematch and up Loma in his table next. So let the 2 beat each other, Ryan and Tank and winner fights Haney vs Loma winner, that will be the perfect scenario.
I like that scenario, lets wait till things move according to that plan i guess, there are lots of events that may happened before things takes place but I'm pretty sure that there are many fans who love seeing this kind of big fights to take place not just the boxing community but more for the gambling communities, they are all waiting for next interesting fights to bet with their chosen champs.
Just wanna add though with how Garcia keeps bringing Davis attentions, a good way to promote these possible fight, once both camps agree with any negotiation that may happen, fans will be on the support side it only means that more money will be accompanying the promoters if ever it will a sign contract deals.
Undoubtedly, both Garcia and Davis are going to attract the attention of the fans and the entire federation in any way so that this fight takes place, when we see a fight in particular, we like it, it excites us because we know that there is great rivalry and that is a unique ingredient, because it is analogous to trading, when you move people's emotions incredible things happen, we could expect a good show from them.
People expect good fights, from influential fighters, that might have big exceptions to being a boring fight, and clearly a boring fight here won't happen with what they've already shown.
