Linares: Lomachenko understands what he got himself into

World lightweight champion Jorge Linares, who will meet the two-time Olympic champion Vasyl Lomachenko on May 12 in New York, is confident that he is a "non-ordinary" boxer, and the Ukrainian should understand that it will be no easy walk for him in the upcoming fight.

"I always analyze myself carefully," Linares said. "At home I have a mirror, and I look at it not only to fix the clothes. I want to see more, see who I am and who I have become. I ask myself: "Do I have a chance, or not?" You always need to be honest with yourself. I think now I have the best stage of my career. I know with whom I have to fight, and I firmly believe that I can win. Lomachenko himself understands what he got himself into. I'm not an ordinary boxer."
