Famous promoter Tom Leffler called the absolute world champion in heavyweight Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk a follower of his illustrious compatriots Vitali and Vladimir Klitschko.
"I am proud that they have cooperated with us and put their trust in me. I am immensely grateful to fate that I have had the opportunity to handle a record number of heavyweight championship fights this century.
It's great to see Usyk continuing the tradition of the Klitschko brothers. He's partnered with our sister company. It's cool to see fighters from Ukraine, Kazahastan and other countries showing themselves at the highest level. The ability to find talent is my niche. From such people we make stars in the U.S.," - quotes Leffler Boxing Scene.
