Sergey Lapin, director of the team of the unified world heavyweight boxing champion Oleksandr Usyk, once again supported the idea of holding a match between his client and the star American showman-boxer Jake Paul.
"The fight against Jake Paul is a magnificent show. Just imagine the poster - the absolute world boxing champion steps into the cage to fight under MMA rules with a guy who has defeated several MMA fighters in the boxing ring. Fans will happily watch this.
It will be a great fight in the cage. But right now our main focus is the title rematch at Wembley. After that, we will resume negotiations with Paul," said Lapin in an interview with Norske Betting.
Let us remind you that on July 19 in London, UK, Usyk will fight for the title of absolute champion against Daniel Dubois.
