Linares: This time Lopez may lose to Lomachenko

Former world champion in three weight categories Jorge Linares appreciated the performance of his former rival Vasyl Lomachenko in the fight against Masayoshi Nakatani and commented on the possible rematch of the Ukrainian against Teofimo Lopez.

“Lomachenko did an amazing job. I am very happy. I see that he is back. Lomachenko was very fast, more focused than before. He can become a champion again. I think he can do it very soon.

"It seems to me that Lomachenko can have a rematch with Lopez. I think Teofimo might lose this time. Let me say something: now Lomachenko is the same again, and I like it. Perhaps we will have a rematch with him. No one knows. Everyone is waiting for this, so we'll see,” Jorge Linares said in an interview with YouTube channel SNOWQUEENLA.

On June 27 Lomachenko defeated Nakatani by TKO in the ninth round.
