Coming from Sydney in Australia, George Kambosos Jr. is now a global persona and is on the brink of becoming a world champion. Nicknamed ‘Ferocious’, the 28-year-old has rightly justified his tag with his unmatched progress inside the ring. However, Kambosos Jr. has yet to become a prizefighter like many of his contemporaries.

Despite having a better resume than a few of the existing world champions at 135 lbs, George Kambosos Jr. doesn’t relish a similar superstar aura. That can change soon, as he seems to be making the right moves at the right times.

The undefeated boxer has all the potential to become a marketable fighter. The reason he hasn’t been able to become one yet is that he has only fought for minor titles against fighters who are not in the same bracket as him.

Hence, his wins are often looked down upon by the fans. With no world champion fighter on his resume, ‘Ferocious’ needs to prove his worth against a worthy opponent.

Here’s a look at his record.

What is George Kambosos Jr’s record?

In an active pro-career of over eight years, Kambosos Jr’s record stands at 19-0 right now, with 10 KOs under his name. Kambosos Jr. has held several titles in his home country, Australia, and also the PABA title. As of now, the WBA Oceania lightweight title and the IBF Pan Pacific lightweight title are two of the biggest accomplishments in his career.

However, if he can continue as an undefeated boxer, we can soon see the world lightweight titles around his waist.
