Usyk: In Ukraine organizers will earn no money for my fight with Briedis

Andrew Karlov Nov. 23, 2017, 3:58 a.m.

WBO cruiserweight champion Alexander Usyk (13-0, 11 KOs) believes that the organizers will not want to stage his semifinal fight of the World Super Series of Boxing against Mairis Breedis (23-0, 18 KOs) in Ukraine. "I think the fight will be somewhere in Europe in January. In Ukraine, I think, it will not happen, because the organizers will not earn much money they earn in Germany or Riga. We do not have room for so many people to pay that they want to receive. But I do not care where to box," Usyk said.

Usyk vs Briedis fight, most likely, will be held in January next year. Earlier it was reported that, in addition to Kiev, Riga and Chicago may claim it.
