'This fight is important for Ukraine, its defenders': Usyk on upcoming bout with Dubois
The broadcast is being conducted by Suspilne.Usyk appeared at the press conference dressed as Pavlo Skoropadskyi, the Hetman of the Ukrainian State from April 29 to December 14, 1918.“Why will the fight on Saturday end in my favor? Because I believe in it. Because I believe in Jesus and the Virgin Mary. Because I have prepared for this bout. What does this fight mean to me? Every fight is important to me. Right now, this bout is important for my country and for the soldiers who are defending our country,” Usyk said.Meanwhile, his opponent Dubois stated that he is chasing greatness and is “hungry and ready” for the fight.“Why will this be my day? Because I have prepared properly. I am on another level, a comfortable level, to take the belts. I am chasing greatness. What is most important in the fight with Usyk: to win the belts or to hand him his first defeat? Both. This is a historic event. I am hungry and ready for it,” said the British boxer.Earlier, before the fight against Daniel Dubois, Oleksandr Usyk called for the release of the captured defenders of Azovstal.What is known about the Usyk - Dubois fightIn August 2023, Usyk knocked out Dubois in the ninth round. However, the Brit insists that the judges should have awarded him an early victory in the fifth round, when the Ukrainian was knocked down by a low blow and took more than three minutes to recover.The 38-year-old Oleksandr Usyk will be fighting for the title of undisputed world champion for the second time. In May last year, the Ukrainian defeated Britain’s Tyson Fury on points and became the first holder of all heavyweight titles since 1999. However, shortly after the bout, Usyk relinquished the IBF belt and lost his undisputed status. In a rematch with Fury in December 2024, the Ukrainian defended three titles.The 27-year-old Dubois won his previous fight last September by a fifth-round knockout against fellow Briton Anthony Joshua.
