GEORGE KAMBOSOS JR and Devin Haney have agreed an undisputed super-fight for June 5 in Australia.
The two champions have spent months in negotiations but terms threatened to collapse.
George Kambosos Jr and Devin Haney have agreed an undisputed super-fight
Devin Haney is set to travel to Australia
But according to ESPN, a deal has finally been struck which will secure a homecoming for Kambosos.
It will see Haney sign for Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum and ESPN.
A rematch clause is said to be included if Kambosos loses, which will see a sequel land back in Australia.
Haney, 23, is the current unbeaten WBC champion but was elevated from the interim belt.

Meanwhile Kambosos, 28, shot to stardom in November when he beat Teofimo Lopez, 24.
It saw him claim the WBA, IBF and WBO titles as well as the WBC ‘franchise’ belt.
But Haney’s belt leaves some still refusing to consider Kambosos undisputed lightweight king.
The American has been promoted by Eddie Hearn and sports streaming service DAZN.
But Hearn was unable to agree terms with Kambosos’ promoter Lou DiBella, which saw talks turn to Arum and Vasiliy Lomachenko, 34.
But Lomachenko refused to leave war-torn Ukraine amid Russia’s invasion with the boxing star bravely taking up arms.
Negotiations then switched back to Haney and it looks as though he is set to sign a deal with Arum.
It remains to be seen whether Matchroom Boxing boss Hearn will represent Haney.
