Luke Campbell will this evening attempt to produce one of the greatest upsets in boxing history when he takes on pound-for-pound king Vasyl Lomachenko.

The WBA, WBC and WBO lightweight titles are at stake at The O2 in London tonight with Ukraine’s Lomachenko the overwhelming favourite.

But Campbell is the talent and longest of Lomachenko’s opponents and the Hull man is hopeful of an upset.

“To be the best, you have to beat the best, and this is certainly one of those challenges,” Campbell said this week. And Lomachenko is taking him seriously. “Campbell is not an easy fighter - he's a top fighter, he's a smart fighter, a technical fighter,” he admitted.
