The boxing world is gearing up for a lightweight showdown between current undisputed champion Devin Haney and former champion Vasyl Lomachenko. The two are currently on top of the stacked lightweight division with many fans wanting to see them in the squared circle. It looks like this wish will finally come true as the fight is being finalized for May 2oth, according to ESPN.

The fight will be a close contest with Haney being the physically bigger and younger fighter while ‘Loma’ has the advantage in experience. However, ‘The Dream’ certainly believes that he will come out on top in this contest after sharing an inspiring message from former UFC double champion Conor McGregor.

Devin Haney shares Conor McGregor’s motivational speech

The undisputed champ shared a resurfaced video of ‘Mystic Mac’ on his Instagram Story. In the video, McGregor emphasizes the importance of self-belief, vocalizing your goals, and the law of attraction. The Irishman is a staunch believer in this and has been for a long time attributing his success to it as well.

“If you see it here and you have the courage enough to speak it, it will happen. A lot of people believe in certain things, but they keep it to themselves. They don’t put it out. If you become vocal with it, you are creating that law of attraction, and it will become a reality,” says McGregor.

McGregor is known for his motivational speeches and his ability to inspire others. Moreover, this message serves as a reminder to all athletes and non-athletes that self-belief and vocalizing goals can help achieve success.

Haney makes a bold claim ahead of the Lomachenko fight

The undisputed champion is quite confident in himself to get the job done on May 20. Moreover, in the press conference leading up to the fight, he claimed that he was levels above the former Olympic medalist despite touting him as a good fighter, as reported by BoxingScene.

“The better the opposition, you know, the better I am as a fighter, the more I rise. ‘Loma’ is a good fighter, but I’m just on a totally different level. And on fight night, the world will see that. The world will see how good Devin Haney really is,” he said.

The fight between Haney and Lomachenko is expected to be a tough one. However, ‘The Dream’s’ confidence, fueled by McGregor’s message, could be just what he needs to secure the victory. Nevertheless, the Ukrainian will also not be the one to back down easily and will be more than eager to get his hands on the belts he lost.
