The promoter of the Ukrainian heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usik (18-0, 13 KOs) Oleksandr Krasyuk spoke about the importance of the fight with WBA, IBF, WBO and IBO heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (24-1, 22 KOs).
" I don't know what the future will be like, but today is the fight of his life.. Much depends on the outcome of this fight.. Usyk understands this and works hard. He is very focused and motivated to turn the outcome in his favor..
Usyk is not just a fighter. He reminds me of Mohammed Ali. Not because they were born on the same day - January 17, but because Usyk does not meet the expectations of the public. He doesn't try to do what the audience wants him to do.. Alexander does not say what will make him popular. He says what he really thinks.
He must leave behind the same legacy as Muhammad Ali.
He can do many things besides boxing.. If we discard business, boxing and everything else, then he is a person capable of changing generations " com.
Boxing night will be held in London at the home arena of the English football club Tottenham on September 25.
