Polish border guards did not like the state of the boxer trainer Sergei Lapin.
The reason for the detention of Alexander Usik by the Polish border guards was the coach of the Ukrainian boxer Sergei Lapin.
The ESPN portal reported some details of the Ukrainian athlete’s detention, citing its own sources.
The airport security service did not like the condition of the athlete’s mentor. He was denied boarding the plane, saying his condition was “unfit for air travel.”
It was noted that Usik tried to explain that everything was fine with them and that they were tired after a 14-hour drive from Kyiv due to the language barrier and the boxer’s categorical position, they were detained.
It should be noted that both Ukrainians have already been released, but even Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky and some diplomats had to intervene in this matter.
We remind you that the incident took place last night. Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk was unexpectedly arrested at Krakow airport as he tried to fly to a training camp in Spain.
