Arum: It’s stupid to think about Lomachenko vs. Inoue fight

According to Arum, we can talk about such a fight not earlier than in a couple of years.

Promoter Bob Arum discarded the idea of ​​a duel of the ex-world champion in three divisions Vasily Lomachenko and WBC and WBO super bantamweight champion Naoi Inoue.

“It’s stupid to think about it. Maybe in a year, in two years the situation will be different, but now it is like that.”

“Inoue has reached 122 pounds, although he does not need to starve for this. He has no problem getting into weight, most of his opponents he is going to fight are bigger. So everything develops step by step.”

Arum previously said that Lomachenko would not enter the ring again in 2023. The boxer cannot focus on training due to the ongoing war in Ukraine.

In his last fight, Inoue defeated American Steven Fulton to win the WBC and WBO super bantamweight titles. The Japanese won by technical knockout in the eighth round, inflicting the first loss of his career on the American.
