Povetkin assessed the positions of Lomachenko and Usik

Former WBA heavyweight boxing world champion Alexander Povetkin spoke about his attitude towards Ukrainian boxers Alexander Usik and Vasyl Lomachenko, who demonstrate different positions towards the Russian Federation.

“Probably Usik has no other way out,” said the “Russian Knight”. “He’s a guy, in principle, not bad, always been for Russia, but what has happened now is incomprehensible to me. Or rather, understandable – it was impossible to do otherwise. Where does he live? He will be destroyed if he does something wrong – that’s my opinion”

“I have to give credit to Vasya Lomachenko, who took and left Ukraine, did not say anything. Of course, in the fight between Fury and Usik, I will be rooting for Usik. He’s a Slav anyway, so I’ll be rooting for him”

On the eve it became known that the fight for the title of absolute world champion in heavyweight boxing between Tyson Fury and Alexander Usik canceled because of the dissection received by the British boxer in sparring, and Vasyl Lomachenko on May 12 in Perth will try to win the vacant IBF lightweight championship belt in a confrontation with Australian George Kambososos.
