WBO World Champion in the second featherweight (up to 59 kg) Ukrainian Vasily Lomachenko (8-1, 6 KOs) admits that for his career a possible revenge with the Mexican Orlando Salido (43-13-4, 30 KOs) is of little interest. At the same time, if their teams agree on a duel, then it will take place, and within a few months. Recall that in March 2014 Lomachenko could become the first in the history of boxing, who managed to become a world champion in the second duel in the field, but Salido did not allow this to happen, having won a disputable victory by a decision of the judges. "For me, as a boxer, Salido is a step backwards. I'm always looking for something new, something interesting and useful for my career. Why waste time to solve problems from the past? - Lomachenko asks the question in an interview with Boxingscene. - After our fight with him, everything was already very clear. However, if the promoters agree, I will accept this fight.
So far, I can not say anything about my next speech, except that it will be held in the second half of the summer ". Recall that on April 8 in Oxon Hill (USA) Lomachenko successfully defended the title, stopping the Puerto Rican American Jason Sosa. Salido did not enter the ring since June last year, when he brought a draw to the compatriot Francisco Vargas. On May 27, he is scheduled to return to battle with a passing Thai Amphon Suriyo.
