Richardson Hitchins dispatches George Kambosos to defend IBF super-lightweight title in New York | Boxing News
Richardson Hitchins arrested George Kambosos in eight rounds to defend the world title of the IBF Super-Lightweight in New York.
Hitchins dismantled the Australian, a former world champion at the bottom in Lightweight, separating him from Madison Square Garden Theater.
It was a humiliating result for Kambosos who marked the best victory of his career in this place when he upset Teofimo Lopez in 2021.
Kambosos has taken the distance in two light title fights with Devin Haney. But at this weight and at this stage of his career, the Australian could not face the Hitchins.
The American, from Brooklyn to New York, presented a show for his fans of the house, placing counter-couples, injuring Kambosos on the body and turning the screw of the eighth tower and forcing the finish inside the distance with a left to the body.

“I told the world of boxing that I came and they should have listened,” said Hitchins thereafter.
“I said to his father, if you like your son, you stop fighting. He was hard, a real competitor, but I was the best man tonight.”
“I knew I had to go to dangerous places to get good shots,” added Hitchins. “I got in danger, but I knew I had a good defense. He grabbed me with a few good shots, but they didn’t hurt me. So I just went for the [finish]. “”
Kambosos has lost four times in his last six fights. “I really thought in myself, but I just didn’t have the timing,” said Kambosos. “He was a little too good for me tonight. He struck me with a beautiful bodies. I always got up before 10 years old, but the referee must do his job.”
