Oyogist has learned that a boxing star in Ukraine, Vasyl Lomachenko has decided to continue fighting on the Ukrainian front after turning down a world title fight against George Kambosos Jr.
The three-weight world champion, 34, is one of several Ukrainian sporting icons who have joined the fight to defend their nation in the wake of the Russian invasion.
Lomachenko was scheduled to face Australian lightweight world champion George Kambosos Jr. last week but the two-time Olympic gold medalist refused to leave the country despite pleas from fans.
He vowed to continue fighting in the battlefield rather than in the boxing ring.
