According to Usyk, he is ready to hang up his gloves immediately after his next fight.

I think this is the last dance. ... I don't know why. Tyson Fury. He stops, comes back. Stops, comes back. We have lived in this sport for a long time, so it is very difficult to say: "I'm done." But when you spend a lot of time at work, your body gets tired. Mine does too. I am not made of iron, I am not an alien. I have a family, my sons, my daughters

- the Ukrainian boxer said.

He added that he takes his responsibility toward Ukraine extremely seriously, as the country has been waging a full-scale war against the Russian invaders for more than four years.

"I am not a politician. I am just a Ukrainian guy. We have problems every day because Russia attacks Ukraine every day: bombs, missiles, ballistic missiles, every day and every night. But we continue to work. What is happening now is difficult, but I know that we will win," Usyk concluded.
