Ukrainian returns to the ring in autumn
Egis Klimasmanager of the former world champion in three weight classes Vasily Lomachenko (16-2, 11 KOs), announced a possible duel with the WBA world champion in three weight categories Gervonta “Tank” Davis (27-0, 25 KOs).
“Tank vs Loma is a mega fight. It would probably be best [когда Ломаченко сначала] will take all the titles, and then fight Tank. It would be cool, ”Klimas emphasized.
The Ukrainian boxer will return to the ring on October 29. Lomachenko’s fight with Jemaine Ortiz will take place at the Hulu Theater in Madison Square Garden in New York.
Lomachenko fought his last fight in December last year, defeating Richard Commey by unanimous decision. Subsequently, Vasily could have fought George Kambosos, but he refused it against the backdrop of a full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Earlier, promoter Bob Arum said he was ready to organize a fight for the title of undisputed lightweight champion between Lomachenko and the winner of the rematch Devin Haney – George Kambosos Jr. in early 2023. The second fight between Haney and Kambosos will take place on October 16 at the Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Australia.
