    I found some credible sources on instagram but I wasn't able to post the link.

    Cambosos is B-level fighter, he was never A-class, not even close. I think even today's Floyd would beat Cambosos, and quite comfortably. I'd like to watch this fight, honestly.

    Obviously Floyd in his prime beats George but I think Floyd would be making a big mistake taking this fight. There is a 17 year age gap and Kambosos is not some novice that Floyd could just toy with like he does in those exhibitions. Kambosos is used to fighting 12 rounds at a hard fast pace he also has a good chin so I doubt this older version of Floyd could hurt him.

    Terrible stylistic matchup tho, both for the fans and for Kambosos.

    Not to mention that the man is 48 years old, and been retired since 2015.

    Floyd was risk averse late in his career, he ain't coming back to take a hammering as an old man

    Floyd in his prime, pretty boy Floyd version, would absolutely smash him to pieces. Floyd isn't Haney

    Too old, but if he had 70% and can still take a punch? It's possible. But although being a gym rat, i doubt he could fight a younger lion

    I think Loma stopped Kambosos not so long ago and Floyd hits harder.
