Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum has told BoxingScene.com that while Vasyl Lomachenko (5-1, 3KOs) and Nicholas Walters (26-0-1, 21KOs) are still on a collision course it will not be on April 30th as originally planned.

Walters was last in action on December 19th, when he went to a controversial twelve majority draw with Jason Sosa in an HBO televised bout. Lomachenko retained his WBO featherweight championship last November with a tenth round knockout of Romulo Koasicha as part of the Tim Bradley-Brandon Rios card in Las Vegas.

"We're doing that fight, we're looking to do it in New York on June 11th," said Arum, who has intimated that young Puerto Rican star, Felix Verdejo would be fighting this weekend as it's the day before the annual Puerto Rican Day Parade.

Last year, Verdejo headlined at the Theater of MSG against Ivan Najera on this weekend.

But this time around he could be fighting in front of many more fans.

"We're going to go to the big room of the Garden,"stated Arum, who's company has a hold on that date.

Verdejo is coming off a ten round decision over William Silva on February 27th at the Garden. He is now scheduled to fight on April 16th back in Puerto Rico on a card that will be televised by UniMas.
