A member of Usyk's team commented on the scuffle with Fury's father
Stanislav Stepchuk, a member of Oleksandr Usyk's team, commented on the scuffle with Tyson Fury's father John.
"We were just yelling "Usyk! Usyk!" I didn't touch him, and all of a sudden he got mad. Of course, I wanted to hit him. But because of the age difference, it wouldn't have been fair. He shouldn't rush into a fight. Otherwise he could have had a heart attack and would have ended up in the ambulance," Stepchuk was quoted by Seconds Out.
The incident between the teams of boxers happened yesterday. As a result of this conflict, Fury senior, who attacked Stepchuk, smashed his head. Later he apologized to the fans for his behavior.
