Former world champion in two weight categories, commentator and analyst Paul Malignaggi believes that we should not take seriously the words of Oleksandr Usyk that he wants to return to the first heavyweight division.
"I've been around Oleksandr Usyk. And enough to appreciate him. He's very serious when it comes to boxing. He's a serious guy.
In normal life, however, Usyk has a great sense of humor. He's very funny and sarcastic. When something needs to be taken seriously, he behaves the opposite way. In fact, is not located to seriousness in many things. He jokes around a lot. I think he trolls," Malignaggi said in an interview with YouTube channel ProBox TV.
Recall that on May 18, Usyk defeated Tyson Fury by split decision of judges and became the absolute world champion in the heavyweight division.
