"It's extraordinary": Haney admitted he's wary of fighting Lomachenko

Undisputed lightweight world champion Devin Haney (29-0, 15 KOs) said the fight against Ukrainian Vasyl Lomachenko (17-2, 11 KOs) is a tough one. The American boxer noted that his opponent has a lot of experience under his belt, especially hundreds of amateur fights speak in his favor.

As Boxing News 24/7 reported, that Haney told about it while talking to journalists at the open training. The holder of all the belts of the division noted that Lomachenko had more than 400 fights in boxing, and lost only three times.

"I'll never say it's going to be an easy job. Loma had 400 in amateur boxing, and he only lost three times. So I have to be at my best to be fourth on that list. 400 fights with only three losses is extraordinary. It's the next level. I'm not looking through it. In a fight with me, Lomachenko could be a completely different boxer. I try not to study my opponent too much and not get too hung up on him," Haney said.
