Alexander Usik has helped Ukraine, the Ukrainian Armed Forces and the residents of the state during the war and will not stop. About it in an interview To the champion said Sergey Lapin, team director of the WBA, WBO, IBO and IBF super heavyweight champion.
According to the functionary, the Ukrainian boxer has already spent more than one million dollars.
“The plan is to draw people’s attention to the Usyk Foundation during the megafight in Saudi Arabia, as our team usually does in previous fights, during the fights, the activity increases significantly, and it an opportune moment to raise more funds to help Ukraine.
There are foundation projects that require Alexander’s direct participation. But now it is very difficult. The training camp lasts for about six months. However, after the fight we will return to these projects. Today we continue to develop various areas of fundraising and assistance.
As for Sasha’s personal contributions, they are regular, and this is not the only work of our foundation. It’s just that Usik traditionally doesn’t advertise such moments. It is no secret that Alexander is helping the Ukrainian Armed Forces. I know that the total aid to Ukraine has exceeded one million dollars,” said Lapin.
We remind you that the fight between Fury and Usik will take place on May 18 in the capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh.
Earlier, Usik’s promoter Alexander Krasyuk explained what would happen if Fury refused to fight the Ukrainian.
