Ukrainian world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 14 KOs) at a press conference after defeating Briton Anthony Joshua (24-3, 22 KOs) answered a journalist’s question about Russian President Vladimir Putin.
— Vladimir Putin likes to say that he has a black belt in judo, rides a topless horse, like he is macho. Now you are the coolest person on the planet (the established definition of the world heavyweight boxing champion, approx. vRINGe). What is it like for you to inspire Ukrainian soldiers and fellow citizens?
“Inspiring people is good. He (Putin) does all this, shows that he is strong, that he is “strong”, that he is handsome – in fact, he is not like that. It’s all deception. He shows that he is strong, but he is weak. He shows what he is, but he is very weak.
