The WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight champion wants to pay his taxes and live in peace.
Oleksandr Usyk does not want to hide his earnings from the state. In an interview with Dmitry Gordon, the WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight champion said that he brought the full payment received from the last fight with Anthony Joshua in Ukraine.
According to the boxer, he plans to pay taxes on his income, and not keep it offshore.
“After the fight with Joshua, I brought money from the fee to Ukraine. It will take time for me to pay taxes here. In all previous fights, I paid taxes where I boxed. It was withdrawn automatically.
And there is no tax in this battle. I have asked before: how to ensure that the percentage of taxes does not go to another country, but to me. Lawyers know all this, and we do.
I have a principled position in business: everything is light, white. For me, this time of black deeds is ending. Because people want to go somewhere in Europe, buy a house, pay for a yacht, restaurant, book. They asked him where he got the money, but he had no answer. And I don’t want to be so scared. Stolen money does not bring joy and happiness. And when it works, it’s normal,” Usyk said.
We will remind, earlier Alexander Usik said what he wants to do after he finishes his professional career.
