WBC world champion in the first welterweight division Regis Prograis (28-1, 24 KOs) commented on a possible fight between the ex-title holder in three weight categories Vasily Lomachenko (17-2, 11 KOs) and the leader of the lightweight division Devin Haney (29-0, 15).
“I don’t know how this fight will turn out. I think I'm leaning more towards Devin Haney. He is much more. Haney entered the ring to Lomachenko and looked much bigger than him. I believe that Loma's skills are still with him, but he could grow old and lose them. As I said, I prefer Devin Haney. He's bigger, younger, and I also think that Loma's skills might have gotten a little worse. But it will still be a good fight. I won’t say that the chances are 50/50, but here everything is close, almost equally. However, I am more inclined towards Haney's victory, ”iD Boxing quotes Prograis.
Earlier, Haney said that his fight with Lomachenko may not take place in the United States, as previously expected.
