Legendary Ukrainian MMA fighter Igor Vovchanchyn reacted to the news that aslt world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk will play him in The Smashing Machine.
"It was a pleasant surprise. I follow his career, because at one time I was engaged in boxing. I watch the TV broadcast of all his fights. It's always interesting. Sasha prepares exclusively for each opponent. We know each other in absentia - we say hello through mutual friends. Among them is the current world champion in professional boxing Denis Berinchik. I hope that Usyk and I will meet soon. If he wants to ask a question before the shooting of the movie, I will be glad to answer," - quotes Vovchanchin "Champion".
Recall that together with Usyk in this movie will play a famous wrestler and Hollywood actor Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.
