Ex-champion of the world in three divisions Vasyl Lomachenko (16-2, 11 KOs) left the territory of Ukraine and already flew to the USA for training until the next fight, Boxingscene reports.

The Ukrainian will start a training camp in Southern California. Earlier it was reported that Lomachenko may hold his next fight on October 22, but the name of his opponent has not yet been specified.

“Every day I pray for Ukraine, for the people and for the end of the war. I returned to Ukraine, when it was the second day of the war. Your consciousness changes because you see another life. It's too bad. It's too bad for the whole world.

I've been preparing for this moment, I need this chance. I need this fight for the title of absolute world champion,” said Lomachenko.
