VASILIY LOMACHENKO is back in another world title fight as he faces George Kambosos Jr next month.
The Ukrainian hasn’t been in the ring since he lost his big undisputed title clash against Devin Haney last summer.
Before that, Haney also beat Kambosos Jr twice but has since vacated his lightweight belts.
The IBF strap is up for grabs here with Lomachenko looking to become world champion once again.
Kambosos Jr eked out a razor-thin decision over Brit Maxi Hughes in his last fight, with fans and pundits alike favouring the latter on the judges’ scorecards.
If he’s to become champ once again, he’ll have to be on top of his game against one of the best fighters of his generation in Loma.
