Former world champion in three weight categories, Vasily Lomachenko, plans to fight in October.
Absolute world champion at lightweight Devin Haney says he is ready to be the Ukrainian’s rival.
According to the American boxer, he will gladly accept Lomachenko’s offer, because he is ready to fight with the best athletes.
“It doesn’t matter who my opponent is. I’m ready to fight Lomachenko in October. I have nothing but respect for Vasily and what he did for his country and family. If we meet in the ring, then. If not, no.”
