The former world champion spoke about the further development of the career of the absolute champion.
Andre Ward really wants to see a fight between Vasily Lomachenko and Devin Haney. According to the former world champion, such a career development would be the most logical for the American boxer.
“The first thing Haney needs to do is rest and enjoy the fruits of his labor, because he deserves it. From what I hear, and my personal feeling, Loma should be next and probably is.
We don’t know how long Haney will fight at lightweight. It’s always hard to put on weight, but one day you come to a point where these difficulties become noticeable. I believe Haney is in that position. He knew a big fight was waiting for him. Right now, he doesn’t want to move up to the first welterweight division, but he needs to understand how difficult it is to drive weight.
I think Loma is the right opponent. And then I want to see the winner fight Shakur Stevenson,” Ward said in a comment on Bud Crawford Beats Easy Route Spence.
Remember that on the eve of Devin Haney for the second time defeated George Kambosos and defended the title of absolute champion of the world. The victory was won by unanimous decision of the judges.
Earlier, Lomachenko said he wanted to strip the championship belt from Haney.
