Richardson Hitchins, the current champion and owner of the Super Lightweight Strap of the IBF, will make his first defense of the title, while the challenger George Kamboses tries to become a world champion of two divisions. This coincidence between Hitchins and Kamboses will be a classic battle of skill and will.

George Kamboses is not recognized as one of the elite fighters, but his heart and determination, combined with his set of skills, make him a very dangerous rival. The Australian boxer travels to New York, where he will be placed on a stage similar to what he participated almost four years ago.

In November 2021, George Kamboses was scheduled to take part in a match for the WBA, WBO and IBF World unified titles. His opponent was a native of New York unbeaten that is a punch. In the initial round of the contest, Teophimo López was very aggressive in terms of constantly shooting his right hand.

With 16 seconds to go to the opening round, George Kambosa landed a well -timed right that sent López to the canvas. When the game continued, Kambosa dictated the pace and landed the cleaner shots during the first half of the fight.

In the second half of the combat, Teophimo López set out on a rhythm while closing the gap on the cards. At the beginning of the tenth round, López dropped Kambos when he connected with a chopped right hand.

Kambosa was able to bounce back in the rounds of the championship, as it was very active in both the 11th and the 12th round. Following the contest, the scores would reveal that George Kamboses took a massive discomfort by divided decision.

With the victory, George Kamboses Jr. He became the new unified light champion, but unfortunately for Kamboses, he lost his belts seven months later when Devin Haney defeated him by unanimous decision.

Now, at present, Sydney’s native, Australia’s native, George Kamboses JR (22-3, 10 kos), is scheduled to return to the Hulu Theater in New York at Madison Square Garden to recreate history and become a world champion of two divisions.

By 2021, Kamboses faced a native of unbeaten and highly qualified New York that was a safe world champion. On Saturday night, June 14, when Kamboses falls into the ring to fight Richardson Hitchins, he will face a native of unbeaten and highly qualified New York that is a secured world champion.

When George Kamboses faced Teophimo Lopez in 2021, he was a considerable unfaithful. On Saturday night, when George Kamboses walks the hallway to fight Richardson Hitchins, he will enter the square circle as a substantial subdog.

The configuration is the same and the match details are similar. The question is: George Kamboses will be able to move the world once again and make the story repeat?
