Vasyl Anatoliyovich Lomachenko was born on February 17, 1988, in Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi, which was then part of the Ukrainian SSR under the Soviet Union. He is a professional boxer and the current WBO Junior Lightweight Champion.
As of early 2018, Vasyl Lomachenko’s net worth is estimated to be around $3 million, which he has amassed through his successful boxing career that began in 2013.
Vasyl developed a passion for boxing at a young age and received training from his father, Anatoly. He had also shown interest in ice hockey, but his father’s influence steered him towards the boxing ring rather than the ice hockey rink.
His amateur career kicked off in 2007 at the World Championships in Chicago, where he reached the semi-finals. Although he suffered his only defeat in the amateurs at the hands of Albert Selimov, he achieved 396 victories and won gold medals at the 2008 and 2012 Olympics, as well as at various World Championships and European Championships.
After the 2012 Olympics, Vasyl turned professional and signed with Top Rank. His professional debut came in October 2013, and despite facing some setbacks early on, he quickly made a name for himself in the boxing world.
His successes in the ring have seen him rise through the ranks and become a two-weight world champion. He currently holds the WBO Junior Lightweight title and is considered one of the top active boxers in the super featherweight division.
Aside from his boxing career, Vasyl is a private individual and is married to Elena, with whom he has a child. Further details about his personal life are not widely available.
