Lightweight champion Vasyl Lomachenko shared the latest news about his return to the ring after the injury, about his possible opponents, as well as about a fight against Manny Pacquiao, who a week ago scored a stoppage victory over Lucas Matthysse and expressed a desire to fight against the Ukrainian.

"My next fight is scheduled for December 1st. This will be my fight after the injury. It is a return, you can say so,” Vasyl said during a broadcast on the Inter channel. “My opponent will be either Ray Beltran, WBO lightweight champion, or Jose Pedraza, with whom he fights on August 25".

"There are talks about meeting with Pacquiao. Potentially this fight is real. How will it go on? My next fight is on December 1 and I called these two names. After December, at the beginning of 2019, everything will be clear," Lomachenko said.
