The absolute champion of the lightweight division once again spoke highly of his future opponent.
Devin Haney has once again spoken not so kindly about Vasily Lomachenko. The American boxer admitted that he doesn’t like his opponent, because he allegedly made him wait a long time for the fight.
The absolute champion of the lightweight division expressed confidence that he can easily defeat the Ukrainian fighter.
“He made me wait four years to fight him when I was 20. So I don’t like Lomachenko. I want to beat him hard and retire him.
Loma has never been an underdog. And this time, he was fighting a champion, a man bigger, stronger, faster, and younger than him. All schedules were playing against him,” Haney said in the documentary. Blood, Sweat and Tears: Haney vs Lomachenko.
It will be remembered that the fight between Haney and Lomachenko should take place on May 20 in Las Vegas at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.
Earlier, the American boxer said that he did not expect an easy walk in a duel with Lomachenko.
