Usik: “Difficulties are given to us so that we can overcome them”

World champion according to WBA, WBO and IBF in the super heavyweight category Alexander Usik for the first time commented on the news about the disruption of the long-awaited fight with the WBC belt holder Tyson Fury.

Yesterday it became known that the Briton received a cut during training sparring and withdrew from the fight, which was supposed to take place on February 17 in Saudi Arabia.

“Dear friends, have a nice, beautiful, wonderful day everyone. I'm having an incredible Saturday. I've already done all the work and now I'm resting a little.

Friends, difficulties are given to us so that we can overcome them. And if we whine when things are difficult for us, we will simply be whiners. All the best, let’s move on,” Usyk said.
