Krassyuk: We try to organize Usyk vs Briedis in Kiev

Andrew Karlov Nov. 29, 2017, 6:07 a.m.

The general director of K2 Promotions Ukraine Alexander Krassyuk says that they are doing their best to organize a fight between Alexander Usyk (13-0, 11 KOs) against Mairis Briedis (24-0, 18 KOs) in Ukraine, but the economic realities of our country say contrary.

"We fought and continue to fight for the possibility of staging this duel in Ukraine, but economic realities dictate their terms to the organizers. Unfortunately, solvency in Ukraine is much lower than in Latvia. In addition, the 12-thousand indoor arena in Ukraine cannot be found."
