George Cambosos Jr’s Sydney Homecoming has just turned unexpected, not the way he planned. His original opponent, Daud Yordan, was excluded on medical basics, leaving him to be advocated to replace less than a week before the fighting night. Enter Jake Wyllie, a 24-year-old Queensland artist who literally planned to sit in the crowd before receiving an invitation to the title.
Wyllie (16-1, 15 ko) was supposed to be just another fan at the Qudos Bank Arena, but now she’s in the ring with Cambosos for her career biggest fight.
“This is made of dreams,” Wyllie said. “I’ve already arranged tickets to watch on Saturday and now I’m fighting at the main event.”
This is one way to save money on the map.
“This is an opportunity for a lifetime and I’m ready to take it with both hands. George’s hint at the highest level, but I’m young, ambitious and ready to put it all. Expect fireworks! Jake ‘The Machine’ Wyllie comes.”
A big conversation, but entry into the former indisputable champion in a lightweight category in the short term is not exactly a recipe for anxiety. Cambosos was with the best – Feofimo Lopez, Devin Haney and Vasiliy Lomachenko – while Wyllie threw out regional opposition.
Cambosos (21-3, 10 ko) are not interested in fairy tales. It treats it as just another step towards the title of 140 pounds, and against IBF champion Richardson Hitchins, and Wyllie is just a CV.
“Boxing is unpredictable and it is very unhappy when Daud Yordan medically pulls out five days before the event, but the furious show continues because there is no show without me,” Cambosos said.
Confessed to Wyllie’s credentials, but he turned off any conversation about the story of Underdog:
“So, I give a Jake ‘rocky’ shot! Opportunity, but it ends here. This is not a rocky movie, don’t distort it – no happy end. A furious statement is what you will see on Saturday night. Victory in any way.”
It’s a decent way to destroy Wyllie.
Qudos Bank Arena will be packed, and while Cambosos-Wyllie is now the main event, the fighting for the women’s world title bring serious roles:
Chief Matchroom Eddie Hearn, never one to turn away from the hype, called him “the biggest map in Australia so far this year.”
“First of all, we wish Daud Yordan a speedy recovery. Now the young Jake Wyllie comes in the short term with an opportunity to change her life to shock the world and destroy George Cambosos JR plans. He is a dangerous percussion stroke with a growing stop sensation, so expect fireworks at Qudos Bank Arena this Saturday.”
