"For a little more than a year I had a crazy schedule, in battles, in preparation. After the victory over Bellew, I sat in the locker room and thought, Thank God, everything ended well. At the moment, there is no need to make hasty conclusions. I have not spoken extensively with the promoters on this topic. Let's see the fight, we will rejoice, we will write mistakes down. Then we will gather with the team and think about our next steps. Rest? Why rest? I am not tired," Usyk joked.
“I don’t read news, because I there’s too much of me. I want silence, I want to hide, sit down, shut up, stay at home with children, not go anywhere, walk around a room and smile," said Usyk at the airport.
