The publication reminds that Usyk turned professional with Krassyuk's K2 Promotions promotional company back in 2013 after winning gold at the London Olympics.

According to Serhiy Lapin, head of Usyk's team and CEO of the Ready to Fight platform, "this is a natural stage" that many boxers have gone through.

Like Mayweather, De La Hoya, Pacquiao, and Alvarez before him, Usyk has reached a point where it's time to build something of his own. He has a strong professional team that has long taken over key areas - from training to brand development

He emphasized that this decision was "thoughtful, conflict-free, and made with respect for shared experience and an understanding that everyone eventually goes their own way."

"This news is particularly shocking, considering that Krassyuk was present at the press conference for the Usyk – Dubois II fight presentation in April," the publication points out.
