The ability to dominate inside was crucial to Kambosos Jr.’s victory over Lopez almost two years ago, but the 30-year-old was unable to match Haney’s jab and pace. Away from any distractions back home in Australia, he has been training in both Los Angeles and Las Vegas. He is motivated to return to competing at the highest level once more, especially if Haney increases his weight and vacates the belts.
