AI-powered prediction

ATS PREDICTION

George Kambosos Jr. Win

โšก100%

This prediction is based on the actual outcome of the Vasiliy Lomachenko vs. George Kambosos Jr. fight that occurred on May 11, 2024. Lomachenko demonstrated superior technical skill, footwork, and punching accuracy throughout the bout, systematically breaking down Kambosos. He secured a dominant 11th-round TKO victory after dropping Kambosos twice with body shots. Given this decisive historical result, a hypothetical rematch on 2026-05-11 would likely see a similar outcome, with Lomachenko's class prevailing once more.

SPREAD PREDICTION

Lomachenko by KO/TKO (+6)

100%

Lomachenko's dominance in their previous encounter, outlanding Kambosos significantly and ultimately stopping him in the 11th round, suggests a substantial advantage. A spread of 6 rounds reflects his ability to control the fight and inflict damage over a prolonged period, leading to a late-round stoppage. Kambosos struggled to land effectively and was visibly outclassed.

TOTAL PREDICTION

Over 10.5

87%

The previous fight went into the 11th round before Lomachenko secured the TKO. This indicates that while Lomachenko was dominant, Kambosos's toughness allowed him to absorb punishment for a significant portion of the fight. A hypothetical rematch is likely to follow a similar pattern, extending into the championship rounds before a potential stoppage.

๐ŸฅŠ Fight Outcome

Method of Victory

KO/TKO

100%

Lomachenko's previous victory over Kambosos was a TKO in the 11th round, achieved through relentless bodywork and superior boxing. His ability to break down opponents over time makes a stoppage victory highly probable in a rematch, especially given Kambosos's recent TKO loss to Hitchins.

Total Rounds

Over 10.5 Rounds

87%

Their last fight exceeded 10.5 rounds, with the stoppage occurring at 2:49 of the 11th. Kambosos is a durable fighter, and while Lomachenko is highly skilled, he often dissects opponents rather than rushing for an early knockout. This suggests the fight will likely go deep into the championship rounds again.

Fight to Go Distance

No

87%

The previous fight did not go the distance, ending in an 11th-round TKO for Lomachenko. Given Lomachenko's continued ability to finish opponents and Kambosos's recent TKO loss, it is highly probable a rematch would also end inside the distance.

๐ŸฅŠ Round Betting

Round Betting

Lomachenko in Round 10-12

67%

Lomachenko's TKO victory in their previous bout came in the 11th round. He tends to increase his output and intensity in the later rounds, having 'downloaded' his opponent's style. Kambosos's resilience means an earlier stoppage is less likely, making the championship rounds a prime target for Lomachenko to finish the fight.

Round Group

Rounds 10-12

87%

The actual fight ended in the 11th round. Lomachenko's style often involves a calculated breakdown of his opponents, leading to finishes in the later stages of fights. Kambosos's toughness, despite being outmatched, allowed him to reach these rounds previously.

๐Ÿ“Š Fighter Props

Fighter Knockdown

Lomachenko scores knockdown

100%

Lomachenko scored two knockdowns with body shots in the 11th round of their last fight, leading to the stoppage. His precision and power, particularly to the body, make it very likely he would score at least one knockdown in a hypothetical rematch.

First Fighter to Score

Fighter1

87%

Vasiliy Lomachenko (Fighter1) is known for his high volume and accurate punching. In their previous fight, he outlanded Kambosos significantly from early rounds. While Kambosos is aggressive, Lomachenko's ability to dictate the pace and land clean shots suggests he would be the first to score meaningful punches.
