Promoting organization Top Rank has published on its YouTube channel a 10-minute video dedicated to Vasyl Lomachenko 's preparation for his May 11 fight in Australia against local boxer George Kambososos Jr. for the vacant IBF lightweight title.
Another episode of "Life at the Training Camp" features a portion of the former world champion's training in three weight classes in California, at one point taking him and a camera crew to Malibu Beach, where he ran on the sand dunes as part of his general physical preparation.
"During such preparations, you realize what it's all for," Lomachenko stated. - I like this pain. That's when you feel your body getting stronger."
The future Boxing Hall of Fame member also recalled his last loss to Devin Haney, which he called a "robbery."
"I don't see how. You can be the best, but the judges don't agree with you," Lomachenko said. - But now it's history. Immediately after the fight I said I sleep very soundly because I know I won this fight."
"I've been training my whole life. Home, two minutes, gym. Gym, two minutes, home. It's always been that way and I've always been comfortable that way. I've been in this sport for a very long time. The Kambosos fight is another fight for me, but it's very hard for me to say how it's going to go because I don't know how my body is going to take another hard training and another hard fight. For me it will be my first visit to Australia. Of course, it's always interesting to perform in a new country where I will be a challenger for the IBF title. Kambosos is a very strong boxer. He never gives his opponents easy fights. He fights to the end. I know one hundred percent that he will not give up. This is one of his strengths, and for me to meet him will be very interesting, because his style suits me very well," Lomachenko added.
