The Ukrainian world heavyweight champion asked to ignore the Briton’s emotions.
WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk defeated Anthony Joshua in a rematch.
After the fight, the British boxer made a speech in which he said there was a “civil war” in Ukraine.
According to Usyk, these words should not be paid attention to, because Joshua said them emotionally. Before this, Anthony asks Oleksandr about the family that left Ukraine because of the all-out war.
“It was his emotions. Maybe he speaks a little differently. When we saw him in Saudi Arabia, he asked me about my family.
I don’t talk to him, you don’t need to pay attention to the emotions he gave. Anthony in a press conference afterwards said that he was devastated. We need everyone to be good within the country, not to separate people, help each other and go the same way – to victory! What they say on the sidelines, you don’t have to pay attention,” Usyk said in a press conference.
Earlier, Oleksandr Usyk said that he is not against fighting Joshua again, and named the only condition.
