WBO super featherweight champion Vasily Lomachenko said that the victory of Mikey Garcia over Adrien Brouner in the fight on July 29 in New York was not very impressive. Lomachenko met with representatives of the leading boxing media in Los Angeles on the eve of his fight on August 5 in the arena of the Microsoft Theater against the Colombian Miguel Marriaga.
Garcia after winning a unanimous decision over Broner said that he agrees to fight with Lomachenko, but only on the condition that the Ukrainian will rise in lightweight division. Garcia added that he was ready to consider the proposals of representatives of the Ukrainian on this meeting.
Almost the same thing was said by Todd DuBeff, a representative of the promotion company Top Rank, with whom Lomachenko was contracted. "Garcia is no big name in boxing," DuBeff said. - If Mikey is interested in a meeting Lomachenko, let him tell his people to call us. We are in. Any time".
Todd DuBeff also added that in the advancement of Lomachenko's future career, their team is not going to held up by an opponent. “We're going to make Lomachenko available so millions can see him on ESPN and see his brilliance".
