The undisputed world lightweight champion Devin Haney spoke about the upcoming fight with the former world champion in three weight categories Vasily Lomachenko. The American spoke about his stubborn preparation for the duel with the owner of the Ukrainian passport. He stressed that now he has become a much better and more experienced boxer than he was before, and therefore he is convinced that he will be able to defeat Lomachenko. " Even in the gym you need to train hard and win yourself. Prepare for that night. We go through a 12 week boot camp just to get ready for one night. We die in training, we starve, our body hurts, we spar, we fight against each other - it's all for one night. To just beat that one man in the ring. I believe that Loma should have fought me four years ago when I called him, and then I said: " Now is the worst time to fight because now I'm the champion, my confidence is off the charts. I got a boost. Got more experience. Things have improved since then. On May 20 you will see how I beat an amateur.

The youngest undisputed champion in history,"

The duel between Lomachenko and Haney will take place on the night of May 21 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. All the light division belts belonging to the American will be at stake.
