Today, Australia's George Campossos Jr. is basking in great joy, because in the confrontation with Teofimo Lopez, he defeated his opponents in a cold attack, becoming the new 135-pound lightweight boxing overlord, completely rewriting history.
Before the clash with Lopez, Cambossos was not optimistic, one of the main reasons was that he was at a disadvantage in terms of strength, which can be seen by the knockdown rate of the two men. To this end, Lopez has always been very conceited, repeatedly threatening to KO Cambosos, but finally being punched in the face, that is, his own strength did not shake the opponent, but was beaten very badly by Camposos.
In his latest interview, Cambossos spoke about Lopez's power, and he admitted that the other side's strength was overestimated. Campos has a very compelling identity, that is, he has been a sparring partner for many famous boxers, including the famous Manny Pacquiao, and Cambossos believes that since he has endured Pacquiao's heavy punches, Lopez's heavy punches are even more important.
Campos said: "I really wanted to feel the power of Lopez, something he bragged about before the game. I was knocked down by Lopez once, it was just a mistake, there was nothing special about Lopez's strength, I had fought against sub-middleweight, super-middleweight boxers, they couldn't believe that my strength was so great, and my offense was okay, not just defensive counterattack. ”
Campos continued: "I have fought against Pacquiao, and I have fought against boxers like Jose Ramirez, Ray Beltran, Sergey Lipez, and it is not disrespectful to Lopez, since I can withstand Pacquiao's heavy punches, let alone Lopez. The boxers who fought with me, they all knew my strength, I won a beautiful match, nothing could be more surprising than this, I was well aware of Lopez's style, I stuck to my plan and won. ”
Lopez's strength is better than Camposos's, but in boxing confrontation, do not underestimate anyone's fist, unless the knockdown rate is less than 10%, otherwise the strongest ability to resist blows may be knocked down. Campossos' knockdown rate is inferior to Lopez's, but his fists are not light, just look at Lopez's face, Lopez is too superstitious about his heavy punches in the game, and the result is a heavy price.
In the battle between Lopez vs Kambosos, in addition to his sharp offensive and excellent ability to resist blows, as he himself said, in addition to the defensive counterattack, Cambosos and Lopez's hard-hitting confrontation did not fall behind at all, and when Lopez launched a stormy attack but could not destroy the opponent, there was a change in psychology.
Finally, when talking about the referee's score, Cambosos was a little distracted, and he said that he was really afraid that the referee would hack him, because one of the three referees decided that Lopez had won, and Cambossos was considered to have narrowly won.
Campos said: "I don't believe the score is close, but I am really worried about the referee because I played in Lopez's hometown, there were two games before, I played in the opponent's hometown and just won by inconsistent scores. One referee decided Lopez had won, and I was sure he was acting the way the other side was, but I knew the end result would be the best person. I think I won 9-3 or 10-2 and only made mistakes in two rounds, presumably needing to calm down or I would have performed more perfectly. ”
