Bob Arum names the fight he wants to happen that will leave boxing fans 'in awe'

The reward for Vasiliy Lomachenko against George Kambosos Jr. this weekend is another world title shot, but could there be a bigger fight on the horizon? 

Lomachenko travels to Australia to face the local favourite and a win could open the door for a showdown with Shakur Stevenson at the end of the year. 

Last year, Lomachenko reminded fight fans of his impressive credentials when he pushed Devin Haney all the way before losing a narrow decision on the scorecards.  

Stevenson is likely to fight this summer and if he can also claim a win, it could lead to a huge showdown. 

"So, if Lomachenko wins and Shakur, who is scheduled to fight in July wins, then for the fall to do a Lomachenko-Shakur fight,” said Arum when speaking to Sky Sports. 

“Every serious boxing fan will be watching that in awe between two great technicians fighting for a unified title."
