Shakur Gives Lomachenko a New Nickname

American WBC lightweight champion (up to 61.2 kg) Shakur Stevenson (21-0, 10 KOs) reiterated his desire to face IBF titleholder Vasyl Lomachenko (18-3, 12 KOs).

"Lomachenko looked good, but I still think he's scared. He's afraid to fight me. He's scared to fight me. Stop being scared, Lomachenko! We're going to call you Duckchenko or Scarychenko until you fight me, champ," Stevenson said.

On July 6 in Newark, USA, Shakur Stevenson will defend his title against Artem Harutyunyan (12-1, 7 KOs). In May, Vasyl Lomachenko defeated George Kambosos (21-3, 10 KOs) by technical knockout in the 11th round to claim the IBF title. Lomachenko's next opponent could be Gervonta Davis (30-0, 28 KOs).
