The world featherweight champion believes the Ukrainian will never have a chance to fight an American.
Shakur Stevenson is betting on Devin Haney on his potential against Vassily Lomachenko. The holder of the WBC and WBO super featherweight titles in an interview with Boxingnews24 said the Ukrainian has aged. And therefore, the absolute champion of the lightweight division can easily defend all the belts he has.
“Haney will want to turn the fight into a boxing match as much as he can. Lomachenko will try to go ahead and settle for a cut. I see Devin winning. He has an advantage over Lomachenko in speed. Loma is a bit older. it would be too hard for him if they fought.
Vasily was asked if he wanted to fight Shakur Stevenson, but he replied that he wanted to win all the lightweight titles and I didn’t think so. So he’ll be first in line for Devin’s belts, ”Stevenson said.
