George Kambosos Jr. has a message for his upcoming opponent Vasyl Lomachenko! ESPN’s Mike Coppinger reported on the May 12 date during last weekend’s Artur Beterbiev vs. Callum Smith fight. According to reports, the lightweight clash will take place in Kambosos’ home country, Australia, possibly at the RAC Arena in Perth. However, the bigger question is, what’s on the line?

In November last year, the former undisputed lightweight champion Devin Haney vacated the WBC, WBA, IBF, and WBO titles to fight Regis Prograis at 140 pounds. So, ‘Ferocious’ and ‘Loma’ would duke it out for the vacant IBF title and Kambosos’ IBO title. However, with over two months remaining until the fight, Kambosos Jr. turned to Instagram today, conveying a special message for his Ukrainian counterpart.

George Kambosos Jr. is expecting a battle of the ages

Sharing a poster of the fight, the Sydney native wrote, “Two Warriors In A Battle For The Ages For The Lightweight World Championship In Australia!” He went on to address ‘Loma’ directly, wishing him to have a healthy camp while promising to see him soon. “Have A Healthy Camp @lomachenkovasiliy. See You Soon Down Under,” Kambosos wrote. 

Interestingly, Kambosos Jr. lost his IBF title to Haney when they first fought in June 2022 and also failed to reclaim it during the rematch in October of the same year. On the other hand, Vasyl Lomachenko is coming off a close fight loss to Haney for the now-vacant title. The fight will be telecasted live on ESPN on the night of May 11 in the United States. However, who will be on their undercard?
