The former unified champion of light kambosos (21-3, 10 ko) considers his losses as lessons to learn and to be part of the sport. If a fighter hangs out long enough, he will be beaten unless he takes no risky combat.

Kambosos, 31, is his replacement opponent, Wyllie, 24 years old (16-1, 15 KB), in the headliner of 12 laps on Dazn. In the co-functionality, the world champion in the world of WBC Skye Nicolson WBC (12-0, 1 KB) defends himself against the Invainu Tiara Brown (18-0, 11 KB) in a ten-round competition.

Kambosos needs one of his best performances on Saturday because he cannot afford to lose this fight because a world title shooting is in the cards for him against the 140 LB IBF champion, Richardson Hitchins if he is victorious.

George has been 1-3 since 2022, and you can make a strong argument that he should be 0-4. His only victory in his last four fights was a majority decision of 12 dubious laps against Maxi Hughes in 2023.

Warrior’s state of mind

“Look at Muhammad Alis. BoxingLet fans know that he has not discouraged to lose three times in his career.

“These are all warriors,” said George Kambosos Sr. “These are the great escape of the Houdinis.”

“The way I look at it is the victories and the losses.
