Vasiliy Lomachenko and George Kambosos Jr will both look to become a two-time lightweight world champion this weekend when they square off for the vacant IBF lightweight world title.
Lomachenko, who is a former three-weight world champion, has not fought for almost a year after his controversial split decision loss to Devin Haney in a bid to become undisputed lightweight world champion.
Meanwhile, Kambosos, who has previously held three lightweight world title belts after an impressive win over Teofimo Lopez in 2021, is also on the rebuild after successive losses to Haney for all four belts.
The Australian fighter won a controversial majority decision against Maxi Hughes last time out but will have to step up the levels if he is to score an upset victory over Lomachenko.
