Lapin on the End of Usyk–Krassyuk Cooperation

Director of Oleksandr Usyk’s team and CEO of the Ready to Fight platform Sergey Lapin has commented on the champion’s split with promoter Alexander Krassyuk.

“This is a natural stage that many people go through. Just as Mayweather, De La Hoya, Pacquiao and Álvarez once did, Usyk has reached the moment when it’s time to create something of his own.

He has a strong professional team that has long handled the key areas—from training to brand development. This was a well-considered, conflict-free decision, made with respect for our shared experience and with the understanding that, sooner or later, everyone follows their own path.”

On 19 July at Wembley Stadium in London, United Kingdom, Oleksandr Usyk will face Daniel Dubois with the undisputed world heavyweight title at stake.
