Oleksandr Usyk admits he is tired of boxing

Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk, who is preparing for a rematch with Tyson Fury, has revealed that he is feeling fatigued with the sport.

Details: In an interview with Boxing King Media, Usyk stated that Tyson Fury's weight gain is of no concern to him. He also admitted that he is somewhat tired of boxing.

Quote: "I have a strong heart, the desire, and the support of my country, wife, and children. Listen, I’m a bit tired of boxing. Whether he’s big or very big – it’s not a problem," Usyk shared.

Previously, it was reported that the WBC, WBA, WBO, and IBO heavyweight champion spoke about the life challenges that led him to deeply believe in God. According to Usyk, he suffered a severe illness during his early school years and even faced the possibility of death. It was then that he turned to religion.

Reminder: On December 21, a megafight will take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, for the WBC, WBA, WBO, and IBO titles. Usyk will face former WBC champion Tyson Fury in their highly anticipated rematch.

Earlier, the full undercard for the December 21 boxing event in Riyadh was revealed.
