One of the first areas of work for Usyk, according to him, will be refereeing reform in Ukraine. “I believe transparency and fairness should be the foundation of the game,” the heavyweight world champion added.

“Oleksandr Usyk and I signed a new contract,” club president Hennadiy Butkevych was quoted as saying by the press service. “He will be the first vice president of Polissya. He will have quite a lot of work, and one of the directions will be refereeing reform. This will involve cooperation with other clubs on this issue.”
