IBF, WBA and WBO World Heavyweight Champion Oleksandr Usyk spoke about the reaction of the Klitschko brothers, Vitaliy and Vladimir, to his decision to leave Ukraine to prepare for the duel with Anthony Joshua.

“I talked to them. Both Vladimir and Vitaly supported me that I was going to train, although it was a very difficult decision. But I accepted it, and at the moment I have started preparing here for a rematch with Anthony Joshua, ”Usyk said in an interview with the Blockasset YouTube channel.

Recall that the first duel between Usyk and Joshua took place in September last year and ended with the victory of the Ukrainian by unanimous decision. It is expected that the date and place of the rematch will be determined in the next two weeks.
