Lomachenko vs Crolla on April 12 at the Staples Center

Andrew Karlov Feb. 19, 2019, 1:45 p.m.

The famous British promoter Eddie Hearn, representing the interests of Anthony Crolla, officially announced that his fighter will meet the WBA and WBO lightweight champion Vasyl Lomachenko. The meeting will take place on April 12 at the Staples Center arena in Los Angeles.

31-year-old Lomachenko won the WBA lightweight title last May, when he stopped Jorge Linares, and in December, the Ukrainian won the WBO belt in a fight against Jose Pedraza. The WBA called this fight the best in 2018. The Ukrainian defeated Linares by knockout in the 10th round and won the WBA title.

Lomachenko was supposed to have a unification battle with Richard Commey, but the Ghanaian received a hand injury that opened the way for Crolla.
