"As the promoters tells me, the contract with Linares will be signed within the next week. Linares is a good rival for me. He is a very experienced and classy boxer, throwing multi-punch combinations all fight. I will be pleased to come out against him in a bout in the new weight category," Lomachenko said.
Lomachenko also commented on Floyd Mayweather's recent statement that his current promoter is not paying him enough: "If you find someone who offers me more, I'll be happy to listen to you. I have a contract that I signed and all the terms of which, including purses, are fulfilling. In this regard, I have no questions. Do I worth more? Of course, I do worth more," Lomachenko said.
