It is obvious to everyone that this is an intermediate step on Vasily’s path to fights against the elite of the light division (up to 61.2 kg).
In conversation with an observer
Yahoo Sports With Kevin Aiole, the Ukrainian answered the question of who in the division he wants to fight the most.
“Of course, Devin Haney is first on my list, because he has four belts now, but in terms of boxing style, Gervonta Davis is the most interesting,” said Lomachenko. He (Davis) is an aggressive fighter who is always looking for the best opportunity to strike, he is only focused on the attack. Other fighters have a different strategy, they try to defend themselves and counterattack.”
Vasily also appreciated the upcoming opponent and admitted in which case he would be happy.
