Lightweight Unification Championship
It has now officially been announced. Unified IBF/WBA/WBO/WBC “Franchise” Champion and Ring Magazine Lightweight Champion George Kambosos Jr. (20-0, 10 Kos) will be putting all off his hardware on the line in a unification bout against WBC Lightweight Champion Devin Haney (27-0, 15 Kos). Both are levelling to be the first Undisputed Lightweight Champion in the four-belt era, set for Saturday night Live on ESPN June 4, 2022 in the United States and Sunday June 5, 2022 at the Marvel Stadium in Australia.
This will be the biggest bout staged on Australian soil since Jeff Horn upset Manny Pacquiao in 2017. Kambosos has been the road warrior working his way up from day one to now being at the top of the 135-Pound Division with the one missing hardware: the WBC Lightweight Championship held by Haney keeping him from being this Division’s Undisputed Champion.
Kambosos is on a natural high right now after dethroning the previously undefeated Teofimo Lopez to become the Lightweight Division Unified Champion of the World, and rightfully so, he should still be enjoying the fruits of his hard labor. Kambosos defied all odds that night when he walked away will all the hardware.
That being said we gotta keep it real here. Styles make fights and the undefeated WBC Champion Devin Haney has all the right tools and attributes needed to remove the IBF/WBA/WBO and Ring Magazine Championship Belts from George Kambosos Jr. Real Talk!
Kambosos may have choked the Boxing World back on November 27, 2021 but in order to become the new Undisputed Lightweight Champion of the World he will have to crush “The Dream” Devin Haney convincingly on his biggest stage of his career, a task at hand that will not be easy considering his highly motivated opponent Devin also has his own agenda at hand with the right “game plan” in mind to walk out of Australia and back into the United States the New Undisputed Lightweight Champion of the World.
Kambosos has already proven to us and the boxing critics not to be taken lightly inside that squared circle. Now it’s time for Devin to show the World and Kambosos that he’s the real deal inside that squared circle, come Saturday night on ESPN June 4, 2022 in the United State and Sunday June 5, 2022 at the Marvel Stadium in Australia.
