The WBA, WBO, IBF, IBO heavyweight world champion congratulated all Ukrainians on a beautiful church holiday.
Oleksandr Usyk started training for a rematch with Anthony Joshua. The WBA, WBO, IBF, IBO heavyweight champion himself announced this on his social network page.
The Ukrainian boxer also greeted all citizens of the country on the great church holiday – the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and said that from now on he will go to a purely spiritual, sporting and informational post so as not to be interrupted in training. . .
“My dear brothers and sisters.
I greet you all on the Feast of the Annunciation of the Most Holy Theotokos.
And today, I want to share a message with you.
I started preparing for the duel.
In this regard, I would like to say a few words in which I will complete all the comments and statements, for my part, about the military aggression against our country Ukraine.
The main and priority in my life is the Orthodox Faith. And it’s not just recognition of tradition or external ritualism. In faith, the meaning of my life. Faith is my life, because in the Church of Christ, I see the only way to save my sinful soul and hope of eternal life.
The Gift of God decided me to be born at this time, in this beautiful country, that I love forever and to be a faithful child of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. The Church that teaches me love of my neighbor, protection of my neighbor and humility.
With you, experiencing all the worries, thoughts and feelings, seeing how the repetition of Cain’s sin is happening now, I understand that a feeling of anger and hatred is beginning to take over my mind, heart and soul.
Therefore, I am committed to the Primate of our Church, His Beatitude Metropolitan Onufry, who is perfectly clear and understandably assessed everything that is happening, calling a shovel a shovel. And also, I take as a basis his spiritual teaching, which he specifically mentioned that now, in this tragic time, we need to pray more.
Therefore, starting with the preparation process, I am leaving for a purely spiritual, sporting and informative post.
I ask for your prayers and support to be able to prepare for the battle with the utmost dedication, to adequately fulfill the important sporting obedience entrusted to me by God, and thereby glorify our little Ukraine and give you all good against.
Everything will be God, everything will be love, everything will be Ukraine, ”Usyk wrote.
