Boxing tonight: Vasyl Lomachenko vs Luke Campbell start time, channel, undercard action
Boxing tonight - Express Sport have rounded up everything you need to know about Vasyl Lomachenko vs Luke Campbell.
Vasyl Lomachenko will make his UK debut as a professional but returns to the city he won Olympic gold at in 2012, just like his opponent Luke Campbell did seven years ago.
Lomachenko is the heavy favourite for his lightweight world title clash with Campbell, who will be aiming to take the Ukrainian’s WBO and WBA belts as well as the vacant WBC strap.
Campbell has lost twice as a pro, to Yvan Mendy and Jorge Linares, while Lomachenko has one defeat on his record - a featherweight world title fight against Orlando Salido.
Lomachenko has gone on to win world titles in three different weight classes since then but Campbell has struggled to find his breakthrough moment as a pro.
He told Express Sport about Lomachenko: “He’s [Lomachenko] a class fighter, he does everything fantastically, he’s got fantastic tricks up his sleeve, that’s what I can say about him,” Campbell exclusively tells Express Sport.
Lomachenko said: “I saw Luke around on the amateur scene, we both have Olympic gold medals.
“He has a very high boxing IQ and is very smart in the ring. I have lots of respect for him as a boxer and as a person.”
