According to the Australian, his entire mind is focused exclusively on the Ukrainian ex-champion
Australian boxer George Kambososformer absolute world lightweight champion, shared his thoughts on the upcoming fight with the ex-champion in three weight categories, Ukrainian Vasily Lomachenko.
“A win over Lomachenko is the prize at the top, it will show that we did everything in the division – we beat the top guys. It will just satisfy everyone. And then you have to wait and see. Let’s see what happens after this fight. But my mind is very focused on Lomachenko. I’ll be crazy if I think about anyone else.”
“Of course there are other big names around my weight. Of course they are, but my mind is with Lomachenko right now. This guy is a legend, and like I said, I’m an underdog. He’s the one who has to think about someone else.”
“I’m ready for anything, but I feel like I can be the first one to knock him out. But I’m ready for anything. My speed, my explosiveness, the punches I throw are extremely explosive. I did over 200 rounds of sparring for this fight.”
The fight between Vasily and George will take place on May 12. The event, which also includes two undercard fights, will take place at the RAC Arena in Perth, Australia, starting at approximately 5 a.m. Kyiv time.
Let us remember that in May 2023, Lomachenko lost to Devin Haney in a fight for the title of absolute world champion. In turn, Kambosos defeated Briton Maxi Hughes in his last fight, winning the IBO lightweight title.
