The previous unified three-belt light-weight champion Kambosos (21-3, 10 KOs) repeatedly pointed at Wyllie (16-1, 15 KO) throughout their face-off, seemingly letting him know what’s in retailer for him on Saturday evening.
Kambosos then turned to the sparse crowd of media, pointing at them, speaking about how he was going to make a “statement.” It was very unusual. He had type of a wild-eyed look to him, voice cracking, and jumpy. He Kambosos seemed like he was about to snap.
That look on the Emperor’s face was about to lose management, able to go postal. I hope they obtained referee engaged on Saturday in case George begins to go nuts contained in the ring. He seemed like somebody that has been on the battlefield far too lengthy. Possibly Kambosos’ final struggle towards Vasily Lomachenko took one thing out of him, leaving him on this way of thinking.
The stress of the second appears to be attending to him, with promoter Eddie Hearn saying his profession shall be over if he loses, and the way Wyllie may take his place because the challenger for IBF gentle welterweight champion Richardson Hitchins in June.
