There were no scale fails in Australia on Friday as former unified lightweight champion George Kambosos Jr.(21-3, 10 KOs) and his opponent Jake Wyllie (16-1, 15 KOs) came under the junior welterweight limit of 140 pounds.
Since Wyllie is a late replacement, the major betting sites have not posted any spreads on the fight. With a potential IBF title fight on the horizon against Richardson Hitchins, Kambosos has plenty of pressure to perform and look good against Wyllie. Will he be able to do that, or will Wyllie spoil the ready-made plans for Kambosos and pull off the upset?
