Oleksandr Usyk remembers his father with gratitude after defeating Tyson Fury

Oleksandr Usyk recently went through a wide range of feelings as he fought Tyson Fury in a greatly awaited battle. Despite the challenges, Usyk came out victorious with a split decision, becoming the undisputed unified heavyweight champion. In a deep reflection on his 22nd career victory, Usyk couldn’t help but be moved, particularly when he paid tribute to his late father who passed away following his 2012 Olympic success. While his promoter hinted that the referee may have prevented a knockout in the ninth round, Usyk remained composed, concentrating on his significant achievement. As a rematch looms ahead, fans can anticipate a second showdown between Usyk and Fury later this year, with talks suggesting the bout could be held in Riyadh this October.
