A fight between George Kambosos Jr. and Vasiliy Lomachenko just got green-lit for May 2. Meanwhile, ‘Ferocious’ has spoken out about a little girl, Dazelle, who is fighting her own battle. Earlier this week, details about Kambosos Jr’s next fight started trickling out to the media, revealing the location and the titles on the line.

The lightweight championship title fight would transpire in Kambosos’ home country of Australia for the vacant IBF lightweight title. However, before the pre-fight ablutions could begin, the IBO world lightweight champion found himself penning a note on X (formerly Twitter) today. He was advocating for the little girl who desperately needed a double lung transplant due to side effects.

George Kambosos Jr. claims the little girl KOd Cancer

Earlier today, the 30-year-old Australian boxer met with Dazelle, the girl in question, in the children’s hospital where she is being treated. Kambosos revealed she had beaten cancer but could not come out unscathed from the battle. According to his tweet, Dazelle now needs a double lung transplant, which came as a side effect of her bone marrow treatment. Turns out, the girl’s father had reached out to Kombosos through Facebook so he could impart some inspiration. 

However, the Aussie claims that the girl inspired him! He wrote, “ Met beautiful little Dazelle today at the Children’s Hospital. She beat cancer but now needs a double lung transplant due to side [effects] from [a] bone marrow transplant. Her father reached out on a FB comment to help give some inspiration, she inspired me, she’s not giving up!” On a separate note, this is just the latest example of how much Kambosos values his fans.

Wild applause for Kombosos Jr at the Australian Open

Back in January 2022, ‘Ferocious’ Kambosos visited his home country for the Australian Open. However, when the then WBA, IBF, WBO, and The Ring Lightweight Champion arrived at the venue – he was greeted by a wild ovation from the crowd. The incident happened after Kombosos caused an upset by defeating Teofimo Lopez, claiming all the titles. 

What’s more, Kombosos may soon get to visit his home country for his next fight against Lomachenko. According to Boxing Scene, Top Rank, promoter for Lomachenko and co-promoter of Kombosos, is trying to set up a deal with the Australian government to host the fight in Kambosos’ hometown, Sydney. The report reveals that the fight could headline at RAC Arena, Perth, Australia.
