Dmitriy Kel May 6, 2024, 5:04 a.m.

Former world boxing champion in three weight categories Vasyl Lomachenko has admitted that he is at the end of his career.

On May 12 in Petra, Australia, the 36-year-old Ukrainian will have to fight for the vacant IBF lightweight title against George Kambososos.

"If we talk about age in boxing and weight classes, I agree - I'm old. What about the super featherweight division? At 36, a lot of super heavyweights may just be getting started. But my career is almost over. How many more years will it last? One, two, three, that's it. But I think I still have some strength left.

How many more years exactly am I gonna fight? I don't know myself yet. That's a tough question. At this age, every fight is hard. It's not easy to recover from fights," - quotes Lomachenko FOX Sports Australia.
