🔴Devin Haney vs. Vasiliy Lomachenko | LIVE Watch Party Round by Round Commentary
A young, rising star clashes with one of the greats of the previous generation on Saturday when Devin Haney defends his status as undisputed lightweight champion against former unified champion Vasiliy Lomachenko. Years in the making, the fight is a classic crossroads clash that represents things for both men.
For Lomachenko, who has held world titles in three different weight classes since turning professional after a storied amateur career, the fight is his first and likely only chance to achieve his dream of becoming undisputed champion. At 35 years old and fighting two weight classes higher than what would be considered his ideal weight, the clock is ticking toward the end of his career.
Haney, meanwhile, has emerged from a chaotic lightweight mix as the man with all four world championships. However, he did so without defeating any of the men viewed as his peers at the top of the division. The fight with Lomachenko is an opportunity for Haney to further legitimize his status and continue rising up boxing's pound-for-pound rankings.
Lomachenko has never been hesitant to seek big challenges. He fought for a world title in just his second career fight and won the WBO featherweight title in his third. After three defenses, Lomachenko moved up a division and again won gold. In that stretch, Lomachenko was not only showcasing his brilliant technical skills but also began stopping opponents, scoring eight consecutive finishes in a run that extended to his first fight at lightweight, where he stopped Jorge Linares to win the WBA world title.
Will Devin Haney reign as undisputed lightweight champion, or can Vasiliy Lomachenko display his matrix like angles and moves to dethrone the champ?
