He is what boxing needed. He carries himself very well, he's confident but still humble and respectful. He showed in the Teo fight he's also a warrior and has since shown willing to defend his belts against anyone. He obviously comes from good stock.
@@stennilsen9584 i mean everyone gave Teofimo that praise without him defending his belts. I just dont see the limelight getting to Kambosos like it did Lopez.
@@gabrielangel2502 i was one of the ones that liked teo until he let it get to his head, he didn't even last 1 fight. However, he did best the one who no one could beat. I wonder how George will do vs Loma.
As an Aussie I've been following Georges career for a while. You could always tell he was destined for greatness in the way he handles the shit talk and then backs it up so well. Doing Australia proud George!
Man I have been following George for close to 7 years now and it’s actually crazy how much love he is getting now, he deserves it all PLUS extra! AUSTRALIA STAND TF UP ☝🏾
@@obijuankenobi420 he fought brilliantly, cracking counter left hook keeping lopez honest all night.whenever lopez fired George fired back. He deserved that win
@@obijuankenobi420 people underestimated him because he had a decision against Shelby which everyone thought was meh but selby doesn’t make anyone look good on victory because he’s such a good boxer.
This dude has an incredible fire in his eye..I met him in Athens and asked him for a selfie and not only he said he would be glad but he treat me like i made him a favour with the photo..So humble..
Impossible not to like this guy. I'm not even Australian and I can't remember being so happy for a fighter becoming champ. He's exactly what a champion should be. And somebody is going to to have nearly kill him to take those belts away. This guy will not go down easy.
Not even gonna lie. I watched this fight with my buddy who’s a pro fighter and we were hype on Teofimo and thought Kamboso didn’t stand a chance. After that first round I said to him we were wrong. We got a fight boys. So much respect earned.
@@tonytimonis8398 you can put all the emojis you want. The post fight doctor said he shouldn't have been fighting and that he could've died. Nothing to laugh about
What made me love George was his integrity, when Lopez dad said "George is a one time wonder" before the fight, I knew they were going to lose, and what hurts more is they are the one time wonders by definition 🤣, and his father also said "if he can't beat George in 3 rounds, I will stop training him" that aged so beautifully 🤣😂
If He gets past Richard Commey, Loma should fight Lopez next so he can get his revenge and also maintain his spot as a Top contender that’s still in the title picture. I think he should step aside and let Haney fight for undisputed then have the winner of Loma vs Lopez 2 against the winner of Kambosos vs Haney
@@MW-dd8vk I think Lopez might be done at 135. Tank has to fight someone too but I could see him letting the top guys beat each other up while he KO’s a couple tomato cans and waits to take his shot at the LW title in 2023.
I love the Aussie/Greek accent. I grew up with Greek neighbours, they are the most generous people. They work hard and party harder. Kambosos deserves every bit of success he gets. Warning: Do not try the home made grappa unless you are a hardcore drinker.
Met George at the airport 2016, he was eating sushi. Everything about him was real, that’s the one thing about a champion you can’t hide from the truth, you either got it or you don’t and oh he had it all, he’s mannerism, he’s persona he was a champion every step of the way.
Love this guy! Manny was one of my three favorite boxers, but since he retired, Kambosos has taken his spot. Kambosos is a true champion… very humble and likeable with amazing boxing skills. I hope he continues to be great.
Im so happy for George Kambosos, seems like such a humble honest guy who has an incredible amount of self belief, as well as heart as well to go with his talent. Respect for beating Teofimo Lopez, James from the UK.
Is it just me or does he remind you of volkanovski? Not just because theyre australian, but the fact that they were both the underdog and both disrespected, but they both put in a ton of work and shut up the doubters
So cool seeing kambosos in the spotlight. I knew he’d make it big, years ago I saw his motivational boxing video. It’s on RU-vid, “still standing George ferocious kambosos” something like that! Cool little video, pretty wild going back and seeing it, how he really manifested it all
Met George at the urinal in Sydney Airport the speed at which he shook it I knew he was going to be champion. It was just a blur down there amazing handspeed
How can you not Love George Kambosos Jr. Such a class act out of the ring and an absolute killer in the ring, I haven't been this happy for someone else's success in a long time, maybe ever. Congratulations Champ 🏆
I remember in 2015, one of my best mates that I grew up with showed me one of his cousin’s professional boxing fights on RU-vid during maths class where he won with a left body hook that broke his opponent’s rib and punctured his lung, I remember saying to my mate “fuck he’s pretty good bro” but didn’t really think much more of it. 6 years later he’s the lineal lightweight world champion and on paper the greatest boxer our country has ever produced.
I had Lopez winning this fight in the late rounds. After the way he acted and seen how poised George was in those press conference, I went full on board with Kambosos. He stayed professional all the way through, and backed his talk in the ring. Dude showed how focused he was and all that hard work paid off. Congrats Champ! Hope you make the great fights happen and square off vs Haney or Tank or both.
any honest man with some knowledge about boxing, knows there is no doubt that Kambosos won that fight... besides the knowdown late, even after that Kambosos kept bringing it
I was in an aiport in 2016 when I met George. He just has the air of a champion, ambition and drive just oozed outta the guy. You could tell he was gonna be champion just from hearing him talk.
Nobody deserves this more than George!!! Following his training camp, seeing his work ethic and passion I knew he’d put up a tremendous fight vs teo! If anybody deserves this it’s George!!!
Congratulations to George Kambosos! I saw the performance and it was beautiful! You’re technique and mind or a wall of fire. I just wanted to say as well, the way JRE sets up these conversations to get details of his guests mind is just great.
Garcia is the most naturally gifted lightweight boxer. I've been saying that for years now. You will all see him rise to greatness when he comes back. If he can get help with leaving his chin exposed after a long combo, he's going to start his annihilation of the division. Also, I now believe that Kambosos is a much better fighter than he was believed to be. He had stretches in the Teo match where he proved that he can box in an incredible way Irrespective of how everyone disregarded him. His counter punches are absolutely world class and they will keep him at the top of the division for a long time. Cheers.
this new champion is great for boxing. a student of the game....young, but old school. A formidable boxer. been following him for a few years now, very glad things are working out for him.....champ!
I’ve been saying that too. Everyone clowned me but look who’s laughing now 😂 boxing is full of ignorant people who only know about their favorite boxer.
@@andrewtodd9103 they weren't b4 but its the biggest upset if the year. They're still talking about it. This past weekend cuz Haney and tank fights And they are again now cuz loma faces commey sat. Ppl didn't even know canelo vs plant was coming and nobody is talking about it today.
@@MrJ1S nobody is talking about this fight bud, don't kid yourself. Maybe one one specific boxing channel but not across the sports world. Not a single show is talking about this fight.
@@andrewtodd9103 that’s funny because I’m seeing George all over my you tube on tons of different channels still talking about it, interviews etc.. an no they weren’t posted a week ago their still being posted daily. Your crazy as hell! I see one Canelo video for every 20 Kambosos videos. Canelo is still the biggest star but Kambosos just skyrocketed himself to the top forsure
I love watching boxing and a fan for almost 12 years and I see that Kambosos is a kind of boxer that improves every fight like Pacquiao, Floyd, Canelo and Crawford because of Hardwork and discipline
My son is bout 19 , a boxer. Watched one of the greatest fights i've ever seen. It had it all, but what stood out George's pure passion and drive. Big ups George........ sore loser the SEPPO
This guy has the perfect amount of confidence ; just the right amount. Most fighters these day tend to appear arrogant, but GK almost always naturally have it on point. Great champ, great person.
Big gratz to kambosos a great guy and something fresh to the top of boxing. I want to see him fight the best and see how far he can take it so people can see how good/elite he really is!!
7-1 for a good reason for Lopez (he was destroying every thing), this guy just was under-rated on his timing and speed, cause those to me are true factors why I think he won 9 rounds maybe 10 rounds, and I wouldn't of bet on him. Keep in mind one judge tried to Rob him and gave 6 rounds to Lopez and only 5 to him, two judges didn't credit him for the knockdown (one the judge with that terrible score), which is a good sign the fix was in, cause to me he did more damage in that round leading up to the knockdown. Lopez was the PPV name, for that fight, so he over came a robbery attempt. I would force the rematch down under.
There are times when I don't love Joe but this is one of those times I love Joe! Thank you for giving this guy some shine! He deserves it man. Kambosos has shaken up the 135 weight class and hopefully he shows what happens when you take risks... Not that Teofimo didn't when he beat Loma but this felt a bit more dramatic and unexpected
Not gonna lie, I had never seen Kambosos fight before though I had heard of him. I thought he was going to be a tough Aussie in the vein of a Harding, Fenech or Horn. And while George is certainly tough, his boxing ability shocked me. Class fighter.
