    He wasn’t peak condition against Haney?

    Common knowledge that he wasn’t he even missed weight on his first attempt.

    They are both at 140 now so it’s a possibility

    I still dislike this match not because I like Teo or hate Kambosos, but it is the biggest reason Haney became undisputed.

    3 years ago! Seriously? I gotta stop zipping around in my space craft at near luminal speeds - I’m experiencing some severe time dilation.

    Yep seeing how confident and aggressive George was going into the fight is the main reason I picked him to win. He was owning Teo at the pressers.

    Yep if they do rematch at 140 I will confidently pick George to beat him again.

    Kambosos- Lopez was the classic one hit wonder performance

    It all came together for him that night

    But both before and after that fight he never ever looked like that.

    Lol :D Yeah and I also heard his actual condition as far as that goes was blown a bit out of proportion. I mean… Most fighters go into the ring with SOME form of an ailment or ache and pain so to hard camps.

    I mean Loma actually fought Teo with a torn shoulder for crying out loud! And Teo fans don’t wanna ever admit that or even hear about that when brought up. So… I don’t care about Teo’s dramafied chest cold. It is what it is.

    George whooped him. WRITTEN IN STONE. IN THE BOOKS.
