Late final week, Matchroom introduced that former light-weight champion George Kambosos Jr will headline a March twenty second present in Sydney that additionally options Skye Nicholson, Cherneka Johnson, and Teremoana Teremoana. Keith Idec, confirming an earlier report from Dan Rafael, claims “Ferocious” will face Daud Yordan in his tremendous light-weight debut.
Sure, that Yordan (43-4, 31 KO), who misplaced an all-Indonesian battle with Chris John practically 14 years in the past and successfully fell off the map following a fairly aggressive loss to Anthony Crolla in a 2018 eliminator. His six fights since have seen him tour southern Asia with little fanfare, however they had been by some means sufficient to earn him his first DAZN principal occasion at 37 years outdated.
Possibly these three Australian fights from 2011-2013 had one thing to do with it, or perhaps Matchroom’s simply pulling out all of the stops to get Kambosos (21-3, 10 KO) a decisive win. He’s solely gained by break up or majority resolution within the 2020s and sits at 1-3 in his final 4, that win a bogus one over Maxi Hughes.
