Will George Kambosos retire from boxing if he fails to defeat Devin Haney?

George Kambosos has hinted that he could walk away from boxing if he’s unable to settle the score with Devin Haney later this year.  

The lightweight rivals meet for a second time on October 15th in Melbourne following their earlier meeting in June when Haney was far too good for the gritty Australian as he ran out a wide points winner. 

Many within in the sport of boxing have questioned the need for a rematch due to how easy Haney won the original meeting, but the rematch was already in place before the first bout even took place.  

Kambosos is promising a better version of himself this time around and he’s even suggested that it could be ‘goodbye’ if he’s unsuccessful. 

“No Plan B. Do or die. And like I said, if I’m not victorious, ‘adios, Ferocious Kambosos.’” said Kambosos when speaking to Fight Hub.  

“I’m in such a great position, I’m blessed to be in this position, and I thank God for this position because I’m one victory away from being at the top again and having all the belts. 

“It’s a beautiful thing, it’s where I’ve been my whole career, and I love that underdog mentality. I lost that in the last fight, I didn’t have that. So, to be back in the trenches, to be back in the dark where I’m left alone. I can train in peace. I’ve been able to get rid of a lot of baggage around me.”
