Former world champion in two weight divisions, currently working as a boxing analyst Tim Bradley, claims to be a two-time Olympic champion and a former pro world champion in three weight categories Vasyl Lomachenko (16-2, 11 KOs) showed weakness during Saturday's victory over Richard Commey.

“In the fight with Commey Lomachenko showed the best elements of his style, including footwork. However, Shakur Stevenson (WBO World Featherweight Champion - ed.) Is a very different type of challenge than Commey. Shakur knows ranged combat no worse than Lomachenko and much larger than the Ukrainian. He does not have a powerful blow, but he fights from a distance and can hold back Vasyl's aggression," Bradley said.

“We also want to see a fight between Lomachenko and Gervonta Davis (regular WBA lightweight champion - ed.). Tank has strength in his hands, speed and technique. Lomachenko has incredible footwork and an extremely rich arsenal of actions. I think he will beat Devin Haney, who is a great long range boxer but makes some defensive mistakes and I don’t know how he will stop Lomachenko's advance. Stevenson is much more experienced than Haney. He has a much better defense,” Bradley noted.

“In addition to great skill, Lomachenko showed weakness in the duel with Commey. He did not finish off his shocked opponent, allowed him to avoid a knockout. However, there is no place for mercy in the ring,” Bradley said.
