Absolute world champion in the super heavyweight category Oleksandr Usyk answered whether he would be upset if the rematch with Tyson Fury does not take place.
"I don't think about boxing right now. ...
"Not thinking about boxing right now. Because I started camp in September 2023 - that's nine months of work. I missed the new year, my son's birthday, another son's birthday, another son, a daughter, the birth of another daughter, missed all the family holidays. All the time just practicing, practicing, practicing. I was focused only on this fight.
I'm happy now. I want to go home. Go to my church, pray. Thank my God. Because this is a big opportunity for me and for my country. I am grateful to those who prayed for me - there are a lot of such people," said Usyk at the press conference.
On May 18, in the main event of an evening of boxing in Riyadh, Saudi Aarwiya, Usyk beat Fury by split decision of the judges.
