The owner of the WBA, IBF, WBO and IBO heavyweight belts Oleksandr Usyk shared his thoughts on the propaganda of the Russian Federation.
On the air of his YouTube channel “USYK17” Ukrainian athlete gave advice on how to protect yourself from Russian news.
“Don’t watch Russian news. At all. And if you saw it, you must sprinkle yourself with holy water,” Oleksandr Usyk said.
Oleksandr Usyk is currently negotiating a fight for the title of absolute world champion in super heavyweight against British boxer Tyson Fury, who holds the WBC belt.
As the manager of the Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Krasiuk reported earlier, the fight Usyk – Fury will take place, most likely, at the end of April. The priority date of the match is April 29.
In addition, the winner of the Usyk – Fury fight will become the first absolute champion in the super heavyweight division in the 21st century.
It will be recalled that the last absolute champion in super heavyweight was Lennox Lewis, who won in the unification fight of Evander Holyfield in 1999.
