Ukraine's world lightweight champion Vasyl Lomachenko says he wants to enjoy hunting and fishing and not box on into his 40s like fellow great Manny Pacquiao.
The 31-year-old two-time Olympic champion will hope to add the vacant WBC belt to his WBA and WBO lightweight titles when he fights Britain's Luke Campbell in London on Saturday.
Lomachenko, who enjoyed an outstanding amateur career winning Olympic gold in 2008 (featherweight) and 2012 (lightweight) and is believed to have lost just one of his 396 bouts, told the BBC he will retire before he is 40.
Pacquiao became the oldest welterwight world champion in history when aged 40 he won on a split decision over American Keith Thurman in July. Lomachenko is adamant he will not be following suit.
"No, I don't want that, it's too much," he said.
"I have trained since I am four years old. I was born a boxer.
"Always, something has to end. I want to hunt, I want to fish every day. Now I can't do this as I train every day.
"My motivation, my goal, is four titles (at lightweight). After, I don't know what happens. Now it's two more belts."
