Athletistic/Boxing. American boxer Kevin Johnson has explained why he appeared at the weigh-in ceremony before the fight with Russian Mark Petrovsky, wearing a T-shirt bearing the image of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Johnson recently applied for Russian citizenship and expressed a desire to change his name to “Kevin Vladimirovich.”

“Why did I choose this t-shirt? Yes, because I am Kevin Vladimirovitch! I stay true to myself, and Russia is now part of me. It’s already integral.”

Of course, during the fight, I will be in it. I sleep, I eat, I have sex in this t-shirt, and it has become my talisman,” Johnson said in an interview with REN TV.

Today, August 18, Kevin Johnson will have an 8-round fight with Mark Petrovsky at a tournament in Moscow.
