George Kambosos Jr vs Devin Haney prediction
Kambosos is a good and intelligent fighter, tough, and his style is deceiving, while he is also a defensively sound fighter. The best way to beat him is in the early round of the bout. In a fight against Lopez, the American entered the ring with the hope of ending the bout in early rounds via knockout, but he failed, as Kambosos was ready to match with him until the end.
Meanwhile, Kambosos has very quick hands and punch creativity, which allows him to jab well and score knockdowns. It should be noted that George always wants the last punch in exchange.
On the other hand, Haney also has fast hands. His impressive jab will help him keep the distance and wait for the counter attack. The American is a better defender than Kambosos; he can avoid a lot of what is coming his way with his reflexes and high speed.
Another day closer to dreams becoming reality…

According to the bookies, Devin Haney is the favorite to win this bout.
Even though Kambosos will be fighting on home turf, which is an advantage for him, Haney is more skilful, effectively keeps the distance and uses his quick hands to score more. He can accomplish that because Kambosos sometimes struggles defensively.
We expect that Haney will control the fight and win by decision.
