Egis Klimas, manager of the world heavyweight champion (WBA, WBO, IBF) Alexandra Usika, told how the war in Ukraine will affect his ward’s preparation for the fight with Tyson Fury. The functionary noted that the war has not been going on for the first day.
“Of course, this affects everyone, and not just the preparation for the fight. He thinks about this every day, communicates with soldiers and their families. Of course it has an impact, but knowing him to be a brave man, he will put everything aside and train. Moreover, it is being prepared not in Ukraine, but in another country,” added Klimas.
Let us remind you that Usik’s fight with Fury will take place on February 17 in Riyadh. The title of absolute world heavyweight champion will be at stake in this fight.
