The Ukrainian emphasized that he sees no point in getting into the ring against such a young and promising opponent, as he does not intend to be the one who interrupts his rapid rise.
“No, I will not fight Itouma because he is still very young. I don't want to ruin this guy's career,” Usyk said in an interview with The Ring.
Recall that on May 23, Usyk will fight kickboxer Rico Verhoeven at the pyramids of Giza in Egypt.
