On Saturday at the Top Rank evening at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, there will be a fight for the title of undisputed lightweight champion between Devin Haney (29-0, 15 KOs) and Vasily Lomachenko (17-2, 11 KOs). The IBF, WBA, WBO and WBC American titles will be at stake in the meeting. Boxers have already taken part in the ceremonial "arrival" in Nevada and greeted the fans.
“We know Loma, we know his plan for a fight — get close, try to box as dirty as possible, hit after a stop command, and the like. But I'm strong, I'm big, I'm prepared, and I'm going to get in the ring and break it," said Devin Haney.
Vasily Lomachenko was asked what he plans to counter with Devin Haney's jab: “Look, this is the same as with Ryan Garcia, who has a great left hook, but he does not work with guys who understand boxing. We understand it, we know it. If you know about his jab, then I know about his jab too.”
