Oleksandr Usyk, the undisputed world champion in both cruiserweight and heavyweight boxing, has had a career filled with accolades and victories. With an Olympic gold, World Championship, European Championship gold medals, and never having lost a professional fight, he has solidified his status in boxing history.
However, there is one dream that Usyk believes he will never be able to realize – fighting in his home country of Ukraine as a world champion. With the ongoing conflict with Russia and the devastation it has wrought upon his country, Usyk believes it is not possible for him to compete in Ukraine before he retires.
Usyk has been actively involved in supporting Ukraine through his boxing career, representing his country in the ring and lending his name and authority to various campaigns. One of the campaigns he has been involved in is ‘Fight for Light’ with DTEK, Ukraine’s largest private energy company. Usyk’s involvement with the company, helping to raise awareness about the struggles the energy sector is facing due to the war, has had a significant impact in Ukraine.
Despite all his accomplishments in the ring, Usyk remains humble and focused on his family and his country. He sees his legacy not in his boxing career, but in his children and in the work he does to support Ukraine. Usyk has become more than just a boxer, he has become a symbol of strength and resilience for his country.
