Former world champion in three weight categories Vasily Lomachenko (16-2, 11 KOs) said that in the near future he was not interested in a rematch with Teofimo Lopez (17-1, 13 KOs).
āOf course, I would be interested in a rematch. The question today is, at what weight. We are well aware that Lopez is unlikely to be able to go down to 135 pounds today. Regarding my weight gain, at the moment I have a lot of interesting fighters in my weight class. So in the next year or two, I do not think that our duel is possible.
I am going to continue my career for more than two years. I just said that I have a lot of opponents in the lightweight division. There are enough fighters here to fight them for the next two years. So I don't have to move up in weight to fight Lopez. And he can't come down here. But I didnāt say anything about ending my career in the near future,ā Lomachenko said.
Recall that in October 2020, Lomachenko lost to Lopez by unanimous decision.
