The Ukrainian boxer named the legendary English team, which he supported in childhood.
Oleksandr Usyk is a Manchester United fan. According to the WBA, WBC, WBO and IBO heavyweight champion, this is the team he supported the most when he was young.
At the same time, there is no place for any of the representatives of the “Red Devils” among the most beloved football players of the famous boxer.
“When I was young I always supported Manchester United. I was a fan of Harry Neville and others, especially David Beckham. They were a tough team to play against back then.
If we talk about my favorite football players, then they are, perhaps, Andrei Shevchenko, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Ronaldo – the old toother. Obviously, Messi and the other Ronaldo were also big players for me,” Usyk was quoted as saying by the Daily Mail.
We remind you that earlier the head coach of Polesie spoke about Usyk’s football abilities.
