Usyk: “The fight with Chisora was on the verge of collapse”
Mandatory contender for the WBO heavyweight title Alexander Usyk in an interview with his YouTube channel USYK17 said that the fight against Derek Chisora on October 31, which he won not without difficulties on points, was on the verge of collapse.
“Just before October 31, I had several explosions in training. Something hurt, for example, there was an elbow injury. The fight might not take place … There were emotional explosions during training. The coaches acted as lightning rods, took over this surge. They were silent, looked, smiled. I continued: “Are you smiling? Is it funny? And I’m not funny at all! ” Then he came up, hugged, kissed everyone. I say: “Guys, I’m sorry, I got excited.” They say: “Yes, it was cool. It’s a pity, they didn’t write it down, ”said Alexander Usik.
