Both boxers are ready to fight for the championship belt
Former three-weight champion Vasyl Lomachenko (17-3, 11 KOs) narrowly defeated Australian George Kambosos (21-2, 10 KOs). The weigh-in ceremony took place in Perth the day before the fight.
The scales showed 61.18 kg under our compatriot.
The 30-year-old Sydney native weighed in at 60.89 kg.
The fight for the vacant IBF lightweight world title (up to 135 lbs/61.235 kg) will take place on May 12 in Australia.
In Ukraine, the fight will be available for free on Top Rank's YouTube and Facebook pages. The fight starts at 5:00 Kyiv time.
It should be noted that during the final press conference, the two boxers staged a real visual battle that lasted more than three minutes.
Earlier, Cambosos shared his expectations for the fight with Lomachenko, promising to knock the Ukrainian's head off. And in Russia, they demanded that the Ukrainian return his championship belts.
Vasyl and George were supposed to fight in the summer of 2022, but the Ukrainian refused because Russia invaded Ukraine. At the same time, the Australian got into a scandal by inviting a boxer from the Russian Federation who supports the war to his camp to prepare for the fight.
Subsequently, a video from Cambosos' training camp was released showing the Russian flag flying.
