The Klitschko brothers commented on the decision in an interview with The Telegraph Oleksandr Usyk (19-0, 13 KOs), who agreed to leave Ukraine under Russian occupation and begin preparations for revenge with Anthony Joshua (24-2, 22). KO).

“There are pluses and minuses here, and for Alexander it was certainly not an easy decision. However, the fact that the anthem of our country will be played and our flag raised can be regarded more positively than negatively,” said Vladimir Klichko.

“Vladimir and I talked about this a few hours ago. Through this, a very important message can be conveyed. We do not know if we will exist in three months. In fact, I plan to talk to Oleksandr Usyk to give him advice if he decides to fight in order to get some special messages that he can voice, ”added in turn Vitaliy Klichko.

Usyk's rematch against Joshua, who will have the WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight championship belts at stake, is scheduled for June. The Ukrainian won the first fight on points.
