Lomachenko: I do not see Usyk in the heavyweights yet

Andrew Karlov Oct. 31, 2018, 2:46 a.m.

WBA lightweight champion Vasyl Lomachenko (11-1, 9 KOs) believes that the undisputed cruiserweight champion Alexander Usyk (15-0, 11 KOs) is too early to rise to the heavyweights.

“You know, I do not like to give predictions, and now I would not like to say this. I do not see Usyk in the heavyweights right now. I have my own opinion on this issue, which I have already voiced in a close circle. Now I would not want to say this. I believe that at the moment or the next year is too early.

“Of course, you can go up to the heavyweights and fight weak opposition and look good. I'm talking about top heavyweights. I wouldn’t do it yet,” said Lomachenko.
