If the de facto absolute lightweight champion (up to 61.2 kg) George Kambosos Jr. (20-0, 10 KOs) successfully defends himself on June 5 in a fight against Devin Haney, then they will try to make his next fight against the former participant in the fight for the absolute Vasily Lomachenko (16-2, 11 KOs). This was stated by the promoter of the Australian Lou Dibella.
“I do one fight at a time, but to be honest, I foresee Lomachenko being next. I mean, if George wins, then there are many opportunities,” said the functionary.

Di Bella recalled that he almost agreed earlier with Vasily, but he is now in Ukraine, “and the Ukrainian people are still at war, so I don’t think about when he [Ломаченко] will be available”.

“But Loma is obviously one of the best fighters in the world and someone we were ready to fight. Therefore, I would say that a fight with him is certainly possible, ”said the promoter.
