Lapin told how Usik's preparation for the fight with Fury is going on

Sergei Lapin, the sports director of the team of the world champion in heavyweight WBA, WBO, IBF Oleksandr Usyk, told how the preparation for the fight with Tyson Fury, the world champion under the WBC version.

"Everything is going well. The team is analyzing the opponent. We plan further program in training camp. We see what elements of training should be given more attention. The sparring sessions started months ago, when we were preparing for the fight in February. They never ended, rather we took a little break. For some time we emphasized on physical training. It's not about that. Everyone wants to get in and train with the champion. But the key question here is how much value they can bring to the campground. We invite those who give a full amount of work and show a good result. How much does a training camp cost now? Our camps are held in different countries and, accordingly, have different budgets. But it's hundreds of thousands...", - quotes the functionary "Champion".
