Shakur and Gervonta Challenge Lomachenko

WBA lightweight champion Gervonta Davis (29-0, 27 KOs) has called out the new IBF and IBO champion Vasyl Lomachenko (18-3, 12 KOs).

"He’s next after Frank... Let me get to Frank first," wrote Gervonta. The American later deleted his post.

WBC champion Shakur Stevenson is also ready for a bout against Lomachenko (21-0, 10 KOs).

"They're trying to freeze me out. To hell with them, Floyd told me about these guys. If your skin isn't dark... July 6th is my next fight on their platform. Pray for me. Arum has nothing to say. They just let him believe he still runs Top Rank, but behind the scenes, they are taking his company. A bunch of sharks who really don't like Bob. The last thing I'll write: tell this guy to come and try to take my WBC. There won’t be an undisputed lightweight world champion who doesn’t go through me. But f*** all you guys. Shakur against the world. I'll kick down this door, believe me," Stevenson wrote.

Lomachenko knocked out George Kambosos in the 11th round. Gervonta is set to fight Frank Martin on June 15, his first bout since last April when he won early against Ryan Garcia.
