Ukraine's Oleksandr Usyk won the fight of his life when he beat Tyson Fury to become the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.
'I’ve prepared for this fight for 22 years. All my boxing career, I’m coming for my dream.' Oleksandr Usyk knew it all - his whole life in boxing - came down to this fight. Twelve rounds with the biggest and the best heavyweight in the sport. Four world title belts on the line. One undisputed champion to emerge from it. That champion would be boxing's first of the four-belt era. The first man to be the unquestioned heavyweight champion of the world in a quarter of century.
Now Vitali Klitschko has a direct role in the conflict as mayor of Kyiv, while Wladimir is one of the most high-profile advocates for Ukraine in public life. 'He was so proud of Usyk,' Loeffler said of Wladimir. 'Now carrying the flag for Ukraine. I have to say it was very emotional.' That was more than a fight. 'Especially now with so much at stake,' Loeffler said. 'It was surreal, with the energy of the crowd,' he continued.
