The champ is home: Kambosos returns to hero’s welcome in Sydney | VinceRugari
. Kambosos has not fought on Australian soil since October 2017, having chosen to shift his operations to the United States in pursuit of the very dream he turned into a reality almost a fortnight ago with his stunning split decision triumph over Lopez.
Haney, who holds the WBC title - the only major strap that Kambosos doesn’t have in the lightweight division - would appear to be at the front of the queue.“We’re bringing the big fights here now,” he said. For now, Kambosos’ plans are rightfully simple: relax with friends and family and soak this all in across the Christmas period. He’s yet to rewatch the fight with Lopez - that will happen later this week. On Thursday afternoon, he’ll hit the gym. And at some point, he’ll finally get the opportunity to mourn the passing of his grandfather, who died while he was in camp, on the very same day his third child was born.
“It’s a special moment and in that round 10, he really lifted me up as well. [Then] I’m going to train ... because now I’m the one being hunted. They want to come and get what I’ve got, what I’ve had to work so hard for. Come and get it. It won’t be no easy ride.”
