Kickboxer Rico Verhoeven turned to WBC, WBA and IBF world champion Alexander Usyk, offering to meet again and agree to a rematch.

.

. On May 24, we filed an official protest because we felt that it was worth taking a very serious look at the conditions under which the fight was stopped. On June 16, we were provided with the Commission's decision. Her verdict confirmed that the bell signaling the end of the 11th round sounded before the referee intervened and stopped the fight. The officially appointed timekeeper confirmed this. The ringside doctor also confirmed that after the fight I showed no signs of confusion or disorientation.. The Commission believes that each of these findings can confirm that the outcome of the battle should not have been as it was..

. He is one of the greatest boxers of this generation. I have the utmost respect for him considering all he has achieved. But I am haunted by the feeling that after 11 unsurpassed rounds on one of the biggest, dare I say it, epic arena in the world, the story seems to have ended without ever coming to its conclusion.

. He caught me well, and the tension in the fight remained until the very end. This happens if the action occurs at this level. Add impulsiveness and everything can change in an instant. There have been times in my career when the thought slipped through my mind that it was all over.. But in my many fights for the world title, I found how it was possible to turn the tide of the fight and stand with my hand raised. Sorry, that's just my nature. Never give up and always believe that it's not over before the gong sounds. We can't do without a pun here, I apologize.

. Boxing fans were deprived of the 12th round. After everything we both put into this fight, they deserved to see how it really ended.. I was never lucky enough to find out whether this evening was one of those that I already had or not.

. So for myself I made a very simple conclusion. Let's put an end to this story and give boxing fans immediate revenge. The arbitration answered the legal questions, but one more question remained, the answer to which has haunted many since that very night: what should have been the end of this whole story Usik, I’m ready,” Verhoeven said on Instagram.
