Not sure how many boxing fans we have on steemit, but we have a great fight this weekend. Two-time Olympic gold medalist Vasyl Lomachenko will be defending the WBO junior lightweight title versus the undefeated Cuban born Guillermo Rigondeaux in New York City on Saturday night. Lomachenko, at 9-1, has been a wrecking ball since jumping to the professional ranks in 2013. The man they call "hi-tech" is the most technical boxer the sport has seen in years. With some boxing pundits and purists proclaiming the Ukrainian to be a active legend in the sport, already naming him in the same breath with some of the boxing greats. Guillermo Rigondeaux, at 17-0 (with 1 no contest), will be looking to push his undefeated mark to 18. But Rigondeaux, also a 2-time olympic gold medalist, will have his gloves full with Lomachenko. With Vegas having the Cuban as a hefty underdog.
Vasyl Lomachenko is a special talent. If your a fan of any combat sport, or just appreciate a great artist at work, Lomachenko fights are a can't miss.
