According to media reports in recent months, the undisputed lightweight champion, Devin Haney, could face Vasyl Lomachenko in his next fight, although there has been no official announcement about this bout.
However, Haney has already been talking openly about the fight and his desire to prove himself against an opponent like the Ukrainian.
“I will prove how superior I am at this point in my career,” the 24-year-old fighter assured in an interview with SecondsOut.
“I told him a long time ago, ‘fight me now because you’ll only get worse,’” he said about “Loma,” who is 35 years old now.
“Right now, I’m a different fighter. I’m a much more mature fighter right now than when I was challenging him, years ago, although I think I would have won anyway,” he continued.
The Haney-Lomachenko bout would be an interesting generational fight for the boxing world and is expected to be confirmed in the coming weeks.
