Lomachenko-Lez fight may take place in U.S. on May 30

The lightweight title unification fight can take place according to the PPV (Pay-per-view) system, The Athletic journalist Mike Cpinger wrote on Twitter.

"Sources: The Vasyl Lomachenko-Teofimo Lez lightweight title unification fight is targeted for May 30, though date hasn't been finalized. Bout likely to land on ESPN PPV rather than linear or ESPN+. Loma has never headlined on PPV in the U.S., but this is his biggest fight yet," the tweet reads.

Lomachenko will earn a record amount in his professional career in a fight against Lez. Entering the ring against the 22-year-d Honduran-American will bring Lomachenko $4.5 million.
