Teofimo Lopez Sr, American boxer trainer Teofimo Lopez, believes that the absolute champion of the lightweight division Devin Haney can win Vasily Lomachenko only if the whole fight keeps him on the ...
“Let's rate Loma, who fought us, at 10 points. If he scores 6.5-7 points in a fight with Haney, he will beat this kid. Why? Because to beat Lomachenko you have to be completely versatile. In other words, you can't do the same shit all the time because Lomachenko will take advantage of that and get you.
I think that Lomachenko really wants to rehabilitate himself in boxing and return all these belts. This is what he always wanted. So I'm waiting for him to return, perhaps, to the seven. Not ten, as when we fought with him. But you never know. Styles make fights.
A very difficult fight for Devin Haney, very difficult. The only option I give him is if he keeps his distance all night and jab like he always does and wins on points. But it will be very difficult,” Lopez Sr. said in an interview with the MillCity Boxing YouTube channel.
Recall that the fight between Haney and Lomachenko will take place on May 20 in Las Vegas.
