On May 16, a few days before the fight with the British Tyson Fury, Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk appeared at a press conference. The athlete made a spectacular exit to the track of domestic performers.
At the press conference held in Riyadh, Usyk appeared in a black and white embroidered bow from Damirli. The 37-year-old athlete came out to the hit song “Drum” by Artem Pyvovarov and Klavdia Petrivna.
World heavyweight champion according to the WBA, WBO and IBF versions, Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk on the night of May 18-19 will fight with WBC title holder Tyson Fury for the absolute world champion title.
Artem Pyvovarov shared a bright video from the boxers' press conference on his Instagram.
Our Cossack! Champion!, the artist wrote.
Aleksandr Usyk appeared before the journalists to the hit of Artem Pyvovarov and the mysterious Klavdia Petrivna. The song was created on the basis of a poem by Geo Shkurupia, the poet of “The Shot Revival”. This is part of the singer's project “Your poems, my notes”.
Glad to be here. Thanks to Mr. Turki, thanks to whom this fight will take place. Let's make history,” said WBA, WBO, IBO and IBF world champion Oleksandr Usyk.
We note that both boxers have the status of undefeated. Oleksandr Usyk has won every 21 fights at the professional level. Tyson Fury has 34 wins out of 35 and one draw.
