    So you mean Lopez reverted to form after the Loma fight (or after the sixth round), agreed.
    I remember it differently, I remember Teo getting completely clowned in the second half of that fight before a spirited effort in the twelfth. I picked Kambosos in their fight because of how Teo looked in that Loma fight (and because he always appeared unfocused and sloppy in his fights before Loma). I guess boxing is a subjective sport like that.

    As a tangent, Teo could beat most guys if he wasn’t such a mental midget. If he was humble and focused he could do anything with his athleticism.

    I haven't yet. I even gave him a shot at beating Teofimo. I'm still pissed with myself for not picking him. Merely keeping it real and in perspective.

    I picked Kambosos to stop Selby. Who was coming off of back to back to back terrible performances. He was beaten to a pulp by Josh, looked bad against Douglas and should've drawn with or even lost to Burns. George took nothing. Because Josh didn't leave him anything to take.:deal: Regardless, Selby is the same fighter George fought, it wasn't like he took a ton of damage in that match.He was outpointed, nothing more. The reality is, Lemos' style would''ve always been a problem for Lee, even a prime pre-Josh version. Lemos demolishes any version of Selby.

    Kambosos is excellent but let's not get carried away here. He's got one top level win.

    The very motivation you stated here;
    Lemos was an eliminator for an IBF shot and Selby was pursuing a title rematch with Kambosos (or, as it has transpired, a bout with Haney if Haney beats George — either way, Selby would have been challenging for a bunch of 135 lb marbles and the distinction of having held world titles in two divisions). He didn't take on such a treacherous assignment (travelling far from home to box a strong, marauding pressure fighter in an unfamiliar, hostile environment) for no reason.


    Chris is correct, the idea that GKJ took Selby's soul is a nonsensical conceit. Lemos would've been much too much for the 2020 Lee, too.

    10 years from now someone will start a topic about the weakest unified champs of all time and Kambosos will be on top of many of those lists.

    If you have watched boxing more than 6 months you will know there is no such thing as a unbeatable fighter.

    I’m glad he beat Lopez and it took everything from him to win. Limited Lopez was able to hurt and put him down. He is a very beatable fighter

    Not at all. He barely beat Lopez who almost died from a lung condition.
