The world heavyweight champion decided not to change his coach before the rematch with the Briton.
Anatoly Lomachenko is preparing Alexander Usik for a rematch with Anthony Joshua. This was said by the promoter of the world heavyweight champion Alexander Krasyuk.
“Anatoly Lomachenko has always been and remains Usyk’s mentor. Everything that happens in the training camp, everything happens with the permission and under the control of Anatoly Nikolayevich,” said Krasyuk.
In addition, the functionary spoke about Lomachenko Jr. According to Krasyuk, he does not understand the motives of Vasily’s silence after the massive invasion of the Russian army.
“Many people thought about the subject of Vasily Lomachenko, his position, which, unfortunately, it is not clear why, he did not express publicly, even though he himself has been in the Armed Forces of Ukraine since the beginning of war. He canceled his duel with Kambosos. I cannot say much about this subject, but I know what it is.
I don’t understand why he didn’t state his position. I can not say. I do not understand. I don’t often talk to him, but I often talk to his manager, and I know exactly what’s going on and how it’s going, and exactly what position Vasily is taking.
The time will come, perhaps he will tell it himself, or at least the circumstances will turn out that way. But a person with other views can voluntarily join the Armed Forces of Ukraine to defend his homeland? I don’t know,” Krasyuk said.
Remember that the rematch between Usyk and Joshua will take place on August 20 in Saudi Arabia. The battle will take place in the city of Jeddah.
