Vasiliy Lomachenko is now the WBA Super Lightweight after scoring a knockout over Jorge Linares.
Lomachenko becomes the fastest boxer in history to become a three-division world champion with just 12 pro fights.
Linares managed to score a knockdown in the 6th round that changed the momentum of the fight.

I also think Linares won the 7th round and it seemed like Loma was being a cautious due to the knockdown. It did not take long for Loma to get back in control of this fight. Lomachenko ended a flurry of punches with a body shot to the liver. This body shot was essentially the end of the fight.

I am not interested in seeing a rematch although I understand the business reasons to have a rematch. Is it time for Lomachenko to start looking at fighting at 140 lbs? Is Mikey Garcia vs Vasiliy Lomachenko the next big fight we can look forward to?
