Sergey Lapin, head of the team of absolute world heavyweight world, Alexander Usik, commented on WBO on the transfer of mandatory protection.

The representative of the Ukrainian boxer also answered questions regarding his injury.

"

On July 19, 2025, Alexander Usik spent a title fight for the third time in 14 months and again became the absolute champion of the world. These victories were given at the cost of enormous discipline, dedication and exhausting camps - the first of which lasted almost nine months due to the transfer of the date of the battle. Such a load requires correct and sufficiently long rehabilitation.

Usyku is not prescribed bed rest, he is allowed to participate in charitable sports activities and moderate physical exertion. But it is obvious that dancing or participation in events is not at all the same as a three -month preparation for title combat.

Alexander earned a restoration. And after him, the fans will again see him in the ring - ready for new big battles. Now our team is considering new opportunities and a new interesting location for organizing a battle for the title of absolute world champion.

In the meantime, we wish Joseph Parker and Fabio Wardley success - let the strongest win, ”Ready to Fight quoted Lapina as saying.

Recall that WBO in July authorized the battle between the Usyk and the temporary champion of the organization Joseph Parker, but the Ukrainian requested a delay in compulsory protection, citing back injury, and ultimately received a postponement for 90 days.

Meanwhile, Parker has already agreed on a duel with the owner of the WBA temporary title Fabio Wardley, which will be held on October 25. The winner of this battle should become an obligatory contender for the Usyk.
