Alexander Krasyuk reported the huge amount spent on the preparation of the Ukrainian champion.
Professional boxing is not a cheap pleasure. Alexander Usik’s promoter Alexander Krasyuk spoke about the value of training camps for the Ukrainian world champion.
In an interview with Champion’s website, the functionary said that at such a high level, training a boxer costs a lot of money. In addition, difficulties arose in finding sparring partners.
– Typically, in preparation for important championship matches, sparring partners are paid around $1,000 per week, and provided with free accommodation, food and airfare. As a result, almost all boxers want to go to the training camp of the Klitschko brothers – to gain experience sparring with the leaders of the division and earn a little extra money. Is it the same in Usik’s training camp today?
– It is unlikely that you will now find a worthy overweight person who is ready to accept a “cabin” for a thousand. These numbers have been rising for a long time. However, they mainly want to get into the camp of Usik or Klitschko not because of money, but because of the experience they got there, and money can’t buy it.
– How much does a training camp cost today? How much was Alexander worth when he was preparing for the fight with Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois?
– It’s hundreds of thousands of dollars.
– During Vladimir Klitschko’s training camp, recordings of his next opponent’s fights play on the monitors. Usik doesn’t have that feature?
– Usik’s main trick is to think about his work. Set goals and achieve them. He did not concentrate on the enemy. This helps him stay in a good mental state and overcome them with his skills and abilities, instead of fighting them,” said Krasyuk.
Let’s remember that Krasyuk earlier named the condition for Usik’s refusal to rematch with Fury.
