– It is a sport. You always support someone more because you associate more closely with them, they are closer to you in spirit, in some other qualities. That’s why I like to support fighters… For example, Usyk. In his style, I see what I have. I associate his style with mine. There is a Soviet boxing school. And I want this school to win.
I like Crawford. I see that he is an active and very thoughtful boxer. I love supporting him. Why do I like Pacquiao? I like his personality, his character, he is humble, he supports a lot of people. I like his behavior. So it’s here. There will be those who associate with one boxer and others with another,” Bivol told .
