Usyk on large financial losses due to political position

Dmitriy Kel Jan. 19, 2022, 11 a.m.

WBA, WBO and IBF world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk said that he lost multi-million dollar contracts because of his political position.

“The situation is such that with hatred and misunderstanding separation, a lot of contracts are gone. Multi-million dollar contracts fell through. The companies refused to cooperate. Some said: “You spoke politically there.” And I tell them: "Where, show me?". And they answer: “Well, they are talking about you there.” So there is a difference between "they say" and "I say".

I lost quite a lot of money for my position. I don't regret it. Money is the easiest resource that can be replenished,” Usyk said in an interview with Maria Efrosinina’s YouTube channel.
