"I'll Hit You So Hard You'll Be Broke." Berinchik Calls Usyk for a Sparring Match

During the new boxing show "What's Next?" on the YouTube channel Ready to Fight, WBO lightweight champion Denys Berinchyk (19-0, 9 KOs) and his trainer Iegor Golub took on various tasks set by the host.

One of the tasks was to call WBA, WBC, WBO, and IBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) and challenge him to a sparring match.

"Bro, I need to prepare for my next fight and I need sparring. Who do you have?" Denys asked.

"Brother, what exactly do you need? Style?" Usyk replied.

"91 kilograms, I need a southpaw."

"Okay. Got it. A southpaw at 91 kilograms. Just make sure he pays so that I don’t get a lawsuit later," Usyk joked.

"Plus-plus, I’m waiting for you in September. I’ll come visit you."

"I’ll hit you so hard you’ll be broke."

"Thanks! Love you, bro."

"Big hugs."

Both boxers last stepped into the ring on May 18—Oleksandr Usyk defeated Tyson Fury (34-1-1, 24 KOs) by split decision, becoming the undisputed heavyweight champion (over 90.7 kg), while Denys Berinchyk also won by split decision against Emanuel Navarrete (38-2-1, 31 KOs), claiming the WBO title.
