WBA lightweight world champion Vasily Lomachenko warned the absolute world champion in heavyweight Alexander Usik.

Lomachenko warned Sasha that he should not rise to heavyweight yet.

"You know, I don’t like to dissemble: I don’t see Sasha as a heavyweight champion yet. I have my own opinion on this, I voiced him in a close circle.

Now I would not want to say this, but I think that now, right now, in the coming year, it is too early..

It is clear that you can go into super heavyweight, find there are a lot of advantages, box it is not clear with whom and look good. I'm talking about top fighters - I would not do it yet, "said Lomachenko in an interview with LOMA Official TV.

Recall. that his next fight Lomachenko will hold on December 8 against the representative of Puerto Rico - Jose Pedraza.

As for Usyk, on November 10 in Manchester he will face off with British Tony Bellew. At stake will be four belts that Sasha owns.. After the fight with Bellew, Usyk wants to go heavyweight and meet Anthony Joshua.
