Lomachenko vs Rigondeaux UK TV channel: How can I watch the super-fight on TV and online?
VASYL LOMACHENKO and Guillermo Rigondeaux are set to get into the ring this weekend in one of boxing’s most anticipated bouts of the year.
GETTY
Lomachenko and Rigondeaux are widely regarded as two of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world and each man has two Olympic gold medals to his name.
Lomachenko is defending his WBO super-featherweight title in just his 11th professional fight, but he has already beaten some of the division’s very best boxers.
His opponent meanwhile is jumping up two weight classes from super-bantamweight for the fight, but has insisted he will not be using the weight advantage as an excuse.
So how can UK boxing fans make sure they don’t miss out on the action from New York on Saturday night?
