WBA, WBO and IBF world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk praised Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for decisive action after the Russian attack.

“If our president had left the country in the first days of the war, then Ukrainians would have been left without hope. But he didn't. It motivated us to be strong and fight. I am sure that if our president was someone else, then we would not be moving in the positive direction that we went.

In the fight with Joshua, I will show that Ukraine is a country of serious, strong, developed and spiritual people. I know the situation because I keep in touch with Zelensky's entourage. He took full responsibility. When a difficult situation arises, many try to avoid it. But Zelensky did not flee after the Russian invasion.

Other countries said they could take him away from Ukraine, but Zelensky stayed for the sake of his country. What do people like me and other Ukrainians think when they see him act like this? Everyone understood that we should go out and fight for our leader," Usyk said in an interview with The Telegraph.
