Hitchins vs Kambosos Set for June 14 Title Clash

Richardson Hitchins will defend his IBF super lightweight title against former unified champion George Kambosos Jr. at Madison Square Garden's Hulu Theater on June 14/15, with the fight aired on DAZN in the U.S. and Kayo Sports in Australia. Tensions were high at the pre-fight press conference, particularly after Hitchins challenged Kambosos to a $50,000 bet. Kambosos looks to capture a second world title division and build on his New York legacy, while Hitchins aims to affirm his status as a rising star. The undercard now features an IBF lightweight title eliminator between Andy Cruz and Hironori Mishiro, along with several other promising prospects. Both main event fighters have expressed strong confidence ahead of the bout. The event is expected to be a highlight of the 2025 boxing calendar.
