How many fights does Usyk have left? Serhiy Lapin responds

Serhii Lapin, director of the team of Undisputed Heavyweight Champion Oleksandr Usyk and CEO of Ready to Fight, spoke about the Ukrainian’s future.

Right now, Usyk is focused on recovering after a grueling training camp and fight. We need time to assess the situation and decide on the next steps.

A Usyk fight in Kyiv? The bout with Daniel Dubois in Wroclaw was already as close to home as possible. Of course, it’s a dream to box at the Olympic Stadium in Kyiv. But when Russia is launching hundreds of missiles at Ukraine every day, organizing a fight at home is simply unrealistic.

Physically and mentally, Usyk is still in great shape. We don’t want to speculate on how many fights he has left. When he feels it’s time to stop, the team will fully support any decision he makes,” Lapin said.

On July 19, Oleksandr Usyk (24-0, 15 KOs) knocked out Daniel Dubois in the fifth round to become the Undisputed Champion for the third time.
