Speaking to The Daily Telegraph on Thursday, Kambosos said he is determined not to be a one-hit wonder against Haney.

Kambosos added that his body is also in “prime condition” and he has “gotten hungrier” and “more obsessed.”

“I went overseas to fight Lopez and came back with these beautiful belts. I am the top dog now and when I beat Haney, I will put the full stop on this and be the undisputed champion,” Kambosos concluded.
