The Ukrainian boxer’s promoter said his ward plans to go on vacation.
Fans will not be able to see the rivalry between Vasily Lomachenko and Shakur Stevenson. At least in the near future. This was announced by the promoter of Ukrainian boxer Bob Arum.
According to the functionary, the former world champion no longer wants to enter the ring. The reason for this decision is the ongoing war in Ukraine.
“Lomachenko refused to fight this fight. He wants to go on vacation.
This rude situation is still happening in Ukraine, everything is getting closer to the place where he lives – next to the bombed Odessa. He can’t focus on fights. I don’t think it has anything to do with Shakur,” Steve Kim told Arum in Twitter.
Let us remind you, earlier Stevenson called Lomachenko a coward for not wanting to fight.
