Oleksandr Usyk, the WBA, WBO, IBA and IBF world heavyweight champion, spoke about his relationship with his late father.
“He was proud of me, but he never said this, just as he did not say that he loved me, although I know that he told others about it. This is the difficulty of educating the Soviet Union, that a man must be tough, not show his emotions, a man is a flint. I never once heard him say to me: "I love you." I wanted to hear it, I wanted support, ”said the boxer.
