The Ukrainian boxer continues to be remembered, even though he has long defended the country from invaders.
Vasily Lomachenko caused a heated argument between undisputed world lightweight champion George Kambosos and WBC champion Devin Haney. Initially, the Australian was supposed to fight Lomachenko, but the fight did not take place because of the war unleashed by the Putin regime.
In the first battle of views, the Australian champion recalled this by saying he was forced to agree to fight Haney, but wanted to fight a Ukrainian. The American responded sternly.
“I just picked the biggest fight. This is why I went to the ring with Teofimo Lopez and I wanted to fight Lomachenko. It was all over, but the war was stopped. And when the fight with Lomachenko broke down, we turned around to Devin. He agreed but does he have a choice? Devin, not my mandatory or mandatory? “
“It’s different. The Australian government is willing to allocate money just for your fighting me or Lomachenko,” Haney told him.
“I could fight with anyone, even with a scavenger, but I chose you. I repeat, you are my mandatory challenger? If not, then I chose you and nothing else,” Kambosos said.
It will be recalled that the match between Kambosos and Haney will be held on June 5 in Melbourne.
