Devin Haney

In a WBA (super), IBF, WBO and The Ring lightweight championship bout, Devin Haney and George Kambosos Jr. meet Saturday at Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, ...

Over 10.5 Rounds (-500) and Yes: Fight to go the distance (-400) are just too expensive. Instead, look to the method of victory, playing HANEY TO WIN BY DECISION (-118) as the best play available on the board. Kambosos Jr. +122 (bet $100 to win $122) HANEY (-170) heads into hostile territory looking to become the unified champ, and I think he'll do just that.

This is the Sydney native's first fight Down Under since knocking out Krai Setthaphon at The Melbourne Pavilion back in Oct. 2017. He has never lost in 27 career pro bouts with 15 knockouts.

Devin Haney remains a slight favorite going into tonight's fight with George Kambosos Jr, even though Haney is the road fighter in Melbourne, Australia, ...

If I have to pick a a best bet — and I don’t, this is just for conversation’s sake — it would either be take the money line on Danny Roman at +425 or take a Fulton stoppage at +400. My actual pick for the fight is Fulton by decision, but those lines are enticing. Fulton is not a big puncher, but I can see a scenario where to stay in the fight, Roman expends a lot of energy and gets himself gassed out a bit, leaving him vulnerable as the fight wears on. Cordina is -110 by decision or technical decision, and a very wide +700 for a KO/TKO/DQ victory. Morrell is -650 to win by KO/TKO/DQ, and +500 to win by decision or technical decision. I’m on record picking Kambosos and Cordina to win, but the Kambosos situation may have shifted after the weigh-in, and the odds aren’t so long you get any big return, anyway. Ogawa, on the other hand, is favored to win by stoppage if he wins at all. But in less skeptical terms, let’s not forget that Cordina was considered a rising potential star by Matchroom not that long ago. This is another fight expected to go the distance. Let’s say first it would be foolish to ignore Cordina is fighting at home. This is also easily the closest line of Haney’s career to date, as he’s generally been a pretty overwhelming favorite. Fulton (20-0, 8 KO) hasn’t lost yet, but some did believe the judges were a bit generous in his November win over Brandon Figueroa Jr, which unified those two belts. He wasn’t out there ralphing in a bucket like Miguel Berchelt before weighing in to fight Oscar Valdez, and he didn’t shed every drop from his body and still fail to make weight.

Two champions square off in a fight that holds plenty of betting value.

There is certainly a scenario where Haney out-boxes Kambosos for 12 rounds and earns a decision victory. Haney was expected to be without two key members in his corner. One thing to keep in mind is Kambosos is fighting in front of his home crowd in Melbourne. In what should be a razor close fight, I see value on Kambosos +280 to win on points over the more highly-regarded Haney. New customers only. Kambosos was coming off two uninspiring split-decision wins over Mickey Bey and Lee Selby before he shocked the world by upsetting Teofimo Lopez as a +600 underdog. The last few weeks have featured fights where one boxer is a large favorite.

Kambosos wildly swung and missed with a shot upstairs, his momentum causing him to fall into the ropes. A short left hook by Kambosos was immediately countered by a left hook from Haney who then moved to his right. Haney pumped his jab to start the twelfth and final round. An overhand right managed to get through for Kambosos midway through the round, followed up seconds later with a chopping right before wrapping Haney’s right hand in his left arm. Haney was first to the draw, with Kambosos responding seconds later. A right uppercut split the guard of Kambosos to begin round five of a championship fight that saw Haney brimming with confidence.

“Today they gave him the decision but I’m sure that will change when we get it on again.” “I’m going to change a few things and get him back later this year. “It’s amazing for the sport and the country,” Kambosos said after graciously handing over his belts to the victor.

Devin Haney can no longer be called an email champion, a titleholder or anything but the undisputed lightweight champion of the world.

Enter Haney, who was embroiled in a dispute with Kambosos and much of the boxing world over the legitimacy of his title. But when Russia invaded Ukraine, Lomachenko decided to remain in the war-torn country with his family and passed on the fight. "Since we started out, we said we wanted to be the best. When I would go to the right, I would fight his left hook. I'm going to pitch a shutout." "His timing was just a little bit shaper than my timing," Kambosos admitted. When I would go to the left, I would fight his right hand. ... This is going to make me hungrier." Anytime Kambosos (20-1, 10 KOs) closed the distance, Haney stepped back and fired a jab. He wanted to land the overhand right, and he wanted to land the big left hook. "I took the last round off just because I knew I was comfortably ahead, but I fought a good, smart fight. Indeed, it was a virtuoso defensive performance from the rising star.

After they go the distance in Melbourne, Devin Haney wins by unanimous decision. And we'll get another look at this matchup soon.

Haney becomes the tenth undisputed champion in boxing in the 4-belt era (since 1988), and the second in the lightweight division, joining Kambosos as having held that honor. Gervonta Davis bout could set up as one of the biggest fights in a long time at 135 lbs. But the champion Kambosos was prepared for this outcome, as the rematch clause for this bout means they’ll run it back once again, and that fight will be in Australia. While the details of date and venue will need to be worked out, Haney (28-0, 15 KO’s) will face Kambosos (20-1, 10 KO’s) in the next bout for both men.

Haney won by scores of 116-112 twice and 118-110, cruising to an easy one-sided victory. Yahoo Sports had Haney 117-111.

Haney, 23, adds the WBA, IBF and WBO belts while improving to 28-0. Kambosos (20-1) dropped the first bout of his career.

"The game plan was to hit and not get hit. "I was sticking to the game plan," Haney said after the win. By the middle rounds, Kambosos’ face was swollen and the previously-rowdy Australian crowd was largely quiet.

Devin Haney became the first undisputed lightweight champion of the four-belt era with a thorough domination of George Kambosos. And he did so by conceding ...

Of course, this is assuming that the second fight plays out in a similar fashion as the first. The lightweight division is crowded and it can be argued that Kambosos lucked up when he edged out Teofimo Lopez last November to become the unified champion. Maybe things will change in the return bout, maybe they won't. Both fighters will be compensated handsomely for their time. The 23-year-old made it look easy as he tamed the rabid fans who came to see the homecoming of George Kambosos. It was an indisputable drubbing that left them silent for a majority of the 36 minutes as Kambosos head repeatedly snapped back like a Pez dispenser. None of those disadvantages mattered as Haney surgically dissected Kambosos behind a pinpoint accurate jab to cruise to a unanimous decision.
