Ukrainian boxer is preparing to return to the ring.
WBA, IBF, WBO and IBO Champion super heavyweight Alexander Usyk talked about how he is preparing for a rematch with the British Anthony Joshua.
Ukrainian boxer said that the war with Russia will be a serious motivation for him:
< "People may think I'm sick, but I have a function and many people who know me call me Mr. Frost. I can disconnect from certain things that prevent me from achieving my goal.
But what is happening at my home now will motivate me very much in the gym, in training. After prayer, I am motivated by the fact that I have to help my people, my country, I have to make them happy. ” – quotes Usika Sport Arena with reference to Blockasset.
The champion also noted that his team is studying the contract and the date and place of the fight will be known soon.
“Now we are reviewing the contract, whether all It's good. Everything will be announced soon, and a contract will be signed. I don't know yet where the fight will take place, I don't want to mislead fans and people. As soon as we study the contract, people will get information. “
, On September 25 last year, Usyk defeated Joshua by a unanimous decision of the judges and took away all his titles from the Briton. The champion returned to Ukraine and joined the territorial defense after the Russian military invasion, but later left the country in preparation for revenge.
