WBA, WBO and IBF world heavyweight champion Alexander Usik addressed Ukrainians on his birthday. Yesterday, January 17, the famous boxer turned 37 years old.

“The long journey is behind us, the most important battles are ahead. Our country is fighting its own fight, so I would like to thank our heroes who are defending Ukraine.

I thank everyone who believes in me and helps me: my beloved wife, mother, children, team and friends.

I also thank those who don’t believe in me: you only make me stronger on my path. Thank God for everything and Glory to Ukraine,” Usyk wrote on Instagram.

Let us remind you that on February 17 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Usik will fight for the title of absolute world champion with Briton Tyson Fury.
