Vasily Utkin was an incredibly talented person who will be greatly missed by everyone, famous sports journalist Sergei Mikulik told .
Earlier on Tuesday, we learned of the death of sports commentator Vasily Utkin. The journalist died at the age of 53.
— Vasya was an incredibly talented person. He entered the profession, as they say, on the street, but very quickly got used to it. Thanks to his excellent Russian language, curiosity and ability to absorb knowledge. And I think it’s no coincidence that Vasya was the leader of his generation. And not just of his generation, but in general. He will be greatly missed by all of us. He is a talented person who worked until his last day. A person with whom it was incredibly interesting to communicate until the last day.
— When was the last time you communicated with Utkin?
— I congratulated him on his birthday on March 6.
– They say he was seriously ill recently.
– Not really. Serious illness occurs when a person is hospitalized. He has been overweight his whole life. I thought he grew up together and got used to it. It’s not that he bothered Vasily much.
– What happened now?
– My heart sank. No one is safe from this. But it’s difficult to say for sure, since Vasya lived alone. As they say, you can’t get a comment from his family and friends who were by his side. But he didn’t look sick at all. But, I repeat, with this excess weight, with which he struggled on the one hand, he at the same time got used to it. And he didn’t give him any additional problems,” Mikulik told .
