Former world champion in two weight categories, and now a well-known analyst Andre Ward thinks the undisputed lightweight champion is an American Devin Haney even more confidently win the rematch of the Australian George Kambosos Jr..

“I expect Devin to do the same, but this time a little more confident. You have to understand that Haney is much better at adapting this time around. Before the first fight, he had to adjust to the change in time zone, and also had to deal with the pressure that his rival's fans were exerting. Australian fans are very noisy. In addition, he did not know if his father, who is also a coach, would be around. His father barely managed to get to Australia and arrived almost at the last moment. It's all a lot of emotional pressure and stress. In addition, it was the biggest fight in his life, which took place abroad.

So, if Kambosos counted on winning, he should have done it in the first battle. I'm not sure that he will be able to show something new. He changed coaches after Haney's defeat, comes up with some excuses. When I watch his interview, I see a confused person who is looking for answers to many questions. Haney will remain the same guy in the rematch, only this time he will make everything more confident, ”Ward said in an interview with ESPN.

Recall that Haney and Kambosos will have a rematch on October 16 in Melbourne, Australia.
