Predictions, how to watch fight

On Saturday, Vasiliy Lomachenko will be fighting George Kambosos Jr. and duking it out with Father Time.

He is a heavy favorite entering the lightweight bout in Perth, Australia, with the IBF lightweight world championship at stake. But at 36, the Ukrainian star may be in decline.

It’s no ordinary 36. Lomachenko, a two-time Olympic gold medalist, started boxing at 4, logged 397 amateur fights and has a pro record of 17-3 with 11 knockouts.

“When I beat Lomachenko, there’ll be no more road for him to go,” Kambosos said this week. “This is retirement for him, I truly believe it.’’
