Promoters announced this information during a press conference, URA-Inform reports.
Vasiliy Lomachenko and George Kambosos will officially hold a title fight on May 12, 2024 at the RAC Arena in Perth, Australia. The boxers will compete for the IBF lightweight title, which became vacant after Devin Haney left for another division.
It is worth noting that Ukrainian boxer Vasily Lomachenko will fight for the first time since losing to Haney last year. Kambosos defeated Maxie Hughes last summer after two defeats from the same Haney.
«Happy to have the opportunity to box for the world title again. George Kambosos is a good fighter and I know I have to prepare well to win. Fighting in Australia will be a new experience. I'm looking forward to giving the people of Perth a great fight», — Lomachenko said at a press conference.
Recall that it was previously reported that the Ukrainian breakthrough: for the first time in history, 5 tennis players are in the top 35 of the WTA rankings.
