Boxing

A touching moment after George Kambosos Jr.’s press conference further cemented the underlying respect between himself and Devin Haney.
Haney prevailed once again over Kambosos Jr. at Rod Laver Arena, defeating ‘Ferocious’ via unanimous decision.
It was as valiant an effort Kambosos Jr. could have given as he opened up with a new game plan but simply couldn’t hang with Haney over the 12 rounds.
And as ‘Ferocious’ wrapped up his press conference, Bill Haney emerged from the back of the room to congratulate Kambosos Jr. and his father, Jim.
Haney was extremely thankful to the Kambosos duo and revealed he and his victorious son had “never studied” an opponent as much as they did for the 29-year-old.
We watched everything that you did. We’ve never studied a fighter as much as we’ve studied you guys. We’ve got the utmost respect for you guys.
“
— Bill Haney
Jim was effusive in his praise for Devin’s ability and admitted all of the pre-fight shenanigans were water under the bridge.
At the end of the day, everything that leads up to a fight, it’s about the emotion and wanting to win.
“
— Jim Kambosos
