How much money did Devin Haney make by beating George Kambosos Jr. in their rematch?

Devin Haney took on George Kambosos Jr. in a highly anticipated rematch in October 2022, which took place at the Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Australia. 'The Dream' outclassed his Australian counterpart yet again and retained his Undisputed Lightweight Championship.

Haney rightfully earned a hefty payday. According to Draft Kings, the Undisputed Lightweight Champion was guaranteed a base pay of $7 million and could potentially walk away with as much as $9.2 million.

On the flipside, George Kambosos Jr. is reportedly set to earn a base pay of $6 million and could potentially earn up to $7.9 million.

Watch the highlights below:

The rematch wasn't all that different from their first meeting in June 2022. George Kambosos Jr. struggled to find momentum in the fight and looked rather confused inside the squared circle.

'The Dream' dominated Kambosos Jr. from start to finish and walked away with a unanimous decision. The final scorecards read 119-109, 118-110, 118-110 in favor of the American.

Throwback to Devin Haney's claim of being "the best fighter in the world"

Devin Haney reiterated just how good he is with his second masterclass against George Kambosos Jr., cementing his status as the world's best lightweight. However, Haney believes he is far more than just the best fighter in his division. In fact, he believes that he is "the best fighter in the world."

During his post-fight interview, Haney suggested that he wants to take on the best fighters in the world. When asked about who he would like to fight next, 'The Dream' said:

"We're taking on all comers. No matter who it is, we want to fight the best fighters in the world. I believe I'm the best fighter in the world. Whoever it is next, bring them on."

Watch the interview below:

Haney defeated Vasiliy Lomachenko in his next title defense, albeit controversially. In their May 2023 boxing match, Lomachenko gave the champion everything he could handle. A large section of the boxing community felt that Lomachenko deserved the win and the scorecards should have favored him.

That being said, Devin Haney is now set to move up a weight class in his next fight. The 25-year-old will challenge the WBC light welterweight champion Regis Prograis for the title. The fight will headline the boxing event scheduled to take place on December 9, 2023. Haney is a sizeable -400 favorite heading into the highly anticipated contest.
