Devin Haney told Richardson to Hitchins that he was looking “cooked” During today’s weighing for defending the IBF welterweight title against George Cambosos and recommended that he achieve 147.
Hitchins (19-0, 7 Kos) appeared exhausted, arriving at 140, and still has a 10-pound IBF hydration, with which you can deal with Saturday Headliner to Dazn at the theater in Madison Square Garden in Up-to-date York.
Haney suggests 147 pounds
Haney’s comment on Hitchinson needed to move to 147 can be interpreted as means that he wants to fight him. Devin is now in need for an opponent after losing two mega paid against Teofimo Lopez and Ryan Garcia.
Promoter Eddie Hearn said today that Haney can follow one of the two titles that will be released by the unified welterweight master Jaron “Boots” Ennis. He said Haney could fight the winner of Lewis Crocker vs. Paddy Donovan Rematch or Face Shachram Giyasov. These are not fights that Haney hoped to get.
“Africa, come to 147. You look on cooked” Haney said XSpeaking of Richardson Hitchins.
Devin moved to a welterweight last month on his 145-pound fight against Jose Ramirez on May 2 at Times Square, Up-to-date York. However, he still did not fight the full welterweight limit and has not yet stood a welterweight opponent. Ramirez was a long -lasting half -wound.
“He was fired. Both teams will be fired. You’ll get an amazing night tomorrow evening,” said Eddie Hearn promoter Boxing DAZNSpeaking of Richardson Hitchins vs. George Cambosos Jr. “You are going to really fight at a high level, a attractive fight at the crossroads.
If Cambosos (22-3, 10 KO) withdraws on Saturday evening, Hitchins could as well take advantage of Haney’s advice and go to 147. Perhaps he may be interested in fighting him if he did not lose too much about Cambosos.
“I don’t think so [overlook Kambosos]. It’s as if history is repeated this week. I think Richardson is nippy, “said Hearn. “He is nice and chilled, but yesterday a training team. It’s fiery.”
The expected appearance of Hitchins
Although Hitchins looked today, it doesn’t matter if you can’t see Cambosos. Just exhaustion of how he appears is enough for him to lose the fight and he will be forced to advance. Probably he won’t do it. Hitchins is too proud to leave the loss to Cambosos without trying to dispose of failure. This is a voluntary defense for Hitchins. So of course there is a rematch clause.
“There are many emotions and that’s what George wants,” said Hearn. “He wants Richardson to stand and fight, and he is under the pressure to look around this statement. This is threatening in itself. George is not the best guy. He is the former unquestionable master and is a very good warrior. He is a very determined, knowledgeable guy.”
Hitchins did not look key, as if he were yesterday when Cambosos pushed him when he waved a real or false $ 50,000 in the face, dare to bet on the result. He didn’t like to be pushed by Cambosos. Today it was quite delicate, without losing temperament from Hitchins.
“He will want Richardson to come and fight, and I think it will be tomorrow evening. He has the opportunity to look good, but he also has the opportunity to fail. I know that Richardson is a favorite, but this is a complex challenge for him. This can really determine the world-class name in this sport,” said Hearn.
Establishing Hitchins as a world -class
Defeating Cambosos will not establish Hitchins. “Emperor” enters this fight with the 2-3 record, which many consider to be 1-4 because of the dubious winning of Cambosos over Maxi Hughes. Take this victory, his record is 1-4 in the last five fights. In order for Hitchins to “bet”, he must defeat these fighters:
– Gary Antuanne Russell
– Keyshawn Davis
– Subriel Matias
– Teofimo Lopez
– Arnold Barboz Jr.
