    I assume Teofimo will pull out and go down the IBF route instead

    Fantastic news.

    He's 31, I don't wanna see him wasting his peak years on another crolla (no disrespect) Luke is a quality operator & even though he'll loose there is no shame in it & he can come again..

    Luke had a much better chance at getting a title via a bout with Haney than he does with Loma. So although he gets to take on the best, maybe not the best outcome for him?

    Cool Hand Luke probably would've got robbed against Haney unless he put him to sleep as the fight was going to be over in the US.

    Cool, send Teo down the IBF route and we can have a total unification megafight within the next year (provided there's no injuries).

    Yes fair enough, petty nationalism aside it's nothing less than his talent deserves.

    Yeah, you only have to see the fuss that Hearn and DAZN have made over Haney to know where they envisaged that fight going. Wonder if Luke had been measured for his diving boots?

    Oh bellissimo! Loma is coming to the UK too, a honorary Brit returning to the Land of Warriors and to the turf he won his second Olympic gold medal on in a match up between two outstanding amateurs and fellow Olympic gold medalists.

    lol For sure, I noticed that too. Campbell might have had to try and pull off a Sergio vs Cintron to come away with a draw ie. beat Haney twice to get a draw lol

    This will be a good scrap! Loma will figure Luke out within 3-4 rounds and do his thing. Vasyl wins this by a comfortable UD.
