Where to Watch Devin Haney vs Vasiliy Lomachenko?
Two of Boxing’s pound-for-pound wizards will conjure up a magical spell for lightweight supremacy as Devin “The Dream” Haney defends his undisputed crown against Ukraine’s three-division world champion Vasiliy Lomachenko this Saturday, May 20, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
American hero Haney (29-0, 15KO) will fight in the U.S. for the first time since defeating George Kambosos Jr. in Australia twice last year to capture and retain the undisputed championship.
The 24-year-old youngster has been on a stellar path since turning pro in Mexico in 2015 when he was just 17. He made his stateside debut on the Manny Pacquiao-Timothy Bradley undercard at MGM Grand Garden Arena in 2016.
Following a fourth-round stoppage over then-undefeated Zaur Abdullaev, Haney was awarded the WBC lightweight world championship.
He defended that belt against unbeaten contender Alfredo Santiago and former world champions Yuriorkis Gamboa, Jorge Linares and Joseph Diaz Jr. He became the undisputed king last June with a 12-round tour de force in Melbourne in front of more than 40,000 Kambosos supporters.
Incredible Ukrainian Lomachenko (17-2, 11KO) is a two-time Olympic gold medalist who compiled a staggering 396-1 record as an amateur before winning world titles at featherweight, super-feather and lightweight.
As a lightweight, he knocked out Jorge Linares to capture the WBA and Ring Magazine titles, won the WBO belt against Jose Pedraza, and added the vacant WBC title to his collection with a 12-round decision over Briton and fellow Olympian Luke Campbell in London.
The 35-year-old lost his belts in a close fight against Teofimo Lopez in October 2020 but regained his form with one-sided drubbings over Masayoshi Nakatani and Richard Commey the following year. After a nearly 11-month layoff spent serving with a territorial defense battalion in his native Ukraine, Lomachenko held off unbeaten contender Jamaine Ortiz last October.
