Not that he given much of a chance to win this fight anyway, but he was done foul with this one. Shouldn't have kept quiet about this. Almost seems like someone had him set up as silly as it sounds. Probably shoulda postponed this fight, but can't criticize him for it. A big opportunity in an eliminator like this for a fringe contender like him was most likely never coming again so he had to make the most of it. He did what he could and should commended for pushing thru it.

What stands out immediately for me is that the first time he came over to USA and fought, in Oklahoma, he did so on ESTA... a tourist visa? So he lied to US border staff and got away with it. He was basically working illegally during his fight with Kambosos.
If he'd lied the second time and again claimed to be a tourist he'd probably have had the same result. But he decided to be honest and caused himself a huge amount of stress.

what stands out to me is..,.., you heard something then put your own twist on it to make it sound something it isn’t . He never lied saying he was a tourist, he travelled on the esta been told by the promoter and lawyer that fighting for prize money is allowed with the esta he had. Do you seriously think a professional boxer would train day in day out, sacrifice a lot of things in life to box, then just chance it getting in the country!!!! Get real!!!

You got what you deserved. Make all the excuses you want, it doesn't change the fact you're a) a criminal for attempting to illegally enter the USA and b) 0-2 in your last two fights.
