At the same time, Lopez Jr. continues to crave revenge with the Australian
Teofimo Lopez Sr.father of the WBO light welterweight champion Teofimo Lopezspoke categorically about the chances of Australian George Kambosos in the proposed fight with the ex-champion in three weight categories Vasily Lomachenko.
“Do you think Kambosos can beat Loma? Never!”
“My son told me he wants [боя с Камбососом] right now. If he doesn’t fight Prograis, he wants that guy.”
Let us remember that in September 2021, Kambosos sensationally defeated Lopez Jr. in a fight for the title of absolute world lightweight champion. There was no rematch option in their contract.
The head of the promotion company Top Rank, Bob Arum, announced his desire to arrange a fight between Vasily and Australian George Kambosos in early September 2023.
Earlier, in May, the Ukrainian lost to Devin Haney in his last fight in a fight for the title of absolute world lightweight champion.
At the same time, ex-two-division world champion Shakur Stevenson expressed his desire to fight Lomachenko. Vasily himself may receive the largest fee in his career for a fight with Shakur.
