"Lomachenko had a great fight. Just schooled Kambosos and showed a cool fight. Overall the result I'm not surprised because everything was as it should be. I do not understand only one thing - why Vasyl is silent about Ukraine again? Perhaps I did not see it, but it seems that again he did not say a word," - said Bogachuk.

Arum names Lomachenko's possible opponents
May 12, 2024, 3:22 p.m.

Bob Arum, promoter of Ukrainian boxing veteran Vasyl Lomachenko, revealed who his client may face in his next fight.

On May 12, Lomachenko knocked out George Cambososos in the 11th round to win the vacant IBF lightweight title on Boxing Night in Perth, Australia.

"The goal of boxing is to win titles, to unify all four championship belts. So you can guess for yourself who is next for Vasily. Gervonta Davis will fight Frank Martin. It's a good fight, we'll see who wins. Navarette fights next Saturday, also for the lightweight title. So he's also a contender for the Lomachenko fight.

Shakur Stevenson fights in July. He's a candidate too. When the time comes, I'll talk to Lomachenko's manager, he'll talk to Vasyl and his father, and then we'll announce an amazing fight together," Arum told Fight Hype.

Maybe Lomachenko will be back in November against Shakur Stevenson. We'll see. Did Lomachenko surprise me? 100%. A great vintage performance. Unfortunately for George, he came out against Lomachenko in his top form.

Can Lomachenko try to get fights with Stevenson and Gervonta Davis? Yes. Why not? But let's savor the moment and then decide the next step tomorrow," Arum told YouTube channel Fight Hype.

Recall that this morning Lomachenko defeated George Cambososos by technical knockout in the 11th round and won the vacant IBF lightweight title.
