Ekaterina Usik recounted how difficult it was for the world heavyweight champion according to the WBA, WBO, IBF, IBO during the Russian invasion.
Oleksandr Usyk was extremely worried about the start of the Russian army’s invasion of Ukraine and lost 10 kilograms of weight in a week. Ekaterina, the wife of the WBA, WBO, IBF, IBO heavyweight champion, said about it in an interview with PravdaTut TV channel.
He also told reporters why the boxer decided not to give any more interviews before the fight with Anthony Joshua.
“Sasha lost ten kilos in a week of war. She was so scared, in great shock, she tore … She saw what I was doing.” But it was very hard for her. At first he melted it inside. Well, first, let’s be honest, we’ve never been in that situation before. And no one, perhaps. All our generation … We didn’t think of it And here, shocked.
Honestly, he doesn’t really like to interview in normal, peacetime anyway. But he’s still on the air, someone says. His position is clear. He is always for Ukraine, he always glorifies it and will glorify it as long as he has enough health and strength. Now he understands how important it is for him, say, even the next fight. For him, every battle is important, but now, when blood is shed in your country, Ukraine wants to be glorified and proud.
I am proud that I am from Ukraine, that I am Ukrainian! Thank God this happened, ”said Ekaterina Usyk.
