Kambosos Vs. Hitchins: Who Wins?

Kambosos Calls Out Hitchins After Surviving a Part-Time Fighter — Hitchins Can’t Stop Laughing

George Kambosos Jr, bleeding and breathless after barely scraping past a last-minute substitute who had a ticket to the show six days ago, took the mic and decided to shout into the void: “Hitchins, let’s go!”

Somewhere in Brooklyn, Richardson Hitchins probably fell off his chair laughing.

Because after a night where Kambosos Jr barely escaped from Jake “wasn’t-even-training” Wyllie, he’s now yelling up the mountain at one of the slickest 140-pounders on the planet like he just smoked Devin Haney, Teofimo Lopez and Barboza on the same night.

Survive First, Shout Second

Let’s be clear — this wasn’t domination. It wasn’t elite-level anything. It was an ex-champ from two divisions lower hanging on late, cut up, getting pressed backwards by a national-level Aussie who got the call on a weekend while still holding a stub for his arena seat.

Wyllie went from eating nachos in the stands to nearly upsetting the main event in under a week. And Kambosos? He looked like he barely had enough gas in the tank to explain what just happened, let alone explain why he deserves another world title shot.

Still, George gave us the soundbite of the night:

“Sh**-chins won’t fight nowhere near as hard as him [Jake Wyllie]. Hitchins, let’s go!”

Yes, he really said that. While holding in blood.

Mate, Hitchins would land 300 jabs in five rounds and make you swing at air till your arms fall off. This isn’t 2021 anymore, and you’re not the guy who shocked Teofimo. You’re the guy who just went life and death with a bloke who got handed gloves on Tuesday.

Hitchins Has Entered the Chat

No official response yet from Hitchins — probably because he’s too busy watching the fight replay and laughing. He doesn’t have to say much. The footage does it for him. He boxes circles around top contenders. Kambosos? He just survived nine rounds with someone who hadn’t sparred since December.

Hitchins’ worst night is cleaner than George’s best lately. And now George wants him toe-to-toe?

Toe-to-toe with what? A bloke who admits he only boxed “beautifully” for five rounds then spent the rest holding his face together?

Eddie Hearn’s Greatest Spin Job Yet

Leave it to Eddie Hearn to pretend this was part of a grand plan:

“If that cut heals up, we’ve got a date at the end of June… George Kambosos Jr to fight for the World Championship in America.”

He says this like George didn’t just nearly get slapped around in his own backyard. Eddie’s job is to sell the next fight. That much is clear. But trying to pitch this mess as momentum? That’s industrial-grade optimism.

The only thing George proved Saturday was that he can still get through ten rounds without collapsing. Barely.

And the whole “toe-to-toe warrior” sales pitch? Hitchins has made a career out of not standing still and laughing at fighters who try to drag him into a brawl. So the plan here is… what? Get out-jabbed for 12 rounds and then call for a trilogy?

Wyllie – The Real Star

Here’s the truth: Jake Wyllie walked out of Qudos Bank Arena with more credibility than George. The fans know it. Matchroom knows it. Wyllie didn’t get a win, but he got a contract. Because unlike George, he looked like he gave more than he had.

He turned six days’ notice into the performance of his life. Kambosos turned eight years of hype into a bloody, awkward mess that looked like a comeback tour gone wrong.

“Victory was never in doubt,” they said.

Sure. Because the cards said so. But if Wyllie had another week to prepare, there’s a real chance we’d be having a very different conversation.

Kambosos 2.0? Or Just Done?

What is George now? A gatekeeper? A brand name? Or a delusional ex-champ still clinging to that one Teofimo night like it’s 2021 forever?

Because this version of Kambosos doesn’t beat Hitchins. He doesn’t even touch him. And the fact he’s calling for that fight after this performance just proves one thing: he’s either bluffing or desperate.

The blood, the cut, the struggle — all of it led to a post-fight speech that read like fantasy fan fiction.

“Let him fight toe-to-toe with me. End of June? Bring it on.”

If Hitchins agrees to that in June, it’s because he wants a sparring session on a live stage.

And let’s be honest — even then, George might be biting off more than he can chew.
