Former absolute world boxing champion Konstantin Tszyu answered the question whether he was ready to hold a master class for the Kaliningrad Baltika football players.

During training camps, Baltika players did combat fitness – tai-bo.

“I believe that boxing training will be useful for any team – not only in football, but in all sports: rugby, swimming, and so on. Because the amount of general physical training that exists in boxing is the best that can be for any athlete. So I am all for this practice.

— Are you ready to hold a boxing master class for Baltika football players?

— It all depends on the offer. If the right offer comes, then why not? I’m ready to share my experience with any athletes,” Tszyu told RB Sport.

Baltika is in fifth place in the RPL standings with 35 points.

Usyk could fight against former champion who shocks Joshua

Former world heavyweight champion (over 90.7 kg) will fight against American Deontay Wilder (44-4-1, 43 KOs), WBC, WBA and IBF champions Alexandra Usika (24-0, 15 knockouts).

This fight will only be possible if Wilder beats Briton Dereck Chisora in London. This was reported by authoritative insider Dan Rafael.

“Wilder and Chisora are finalizing the fight, which will take place in London in April. The possibility of Deontay challenging lineal/unified champion Oleksandr Usyk has been discussed recently.

The parties have remained in contact but the fight will not take place at a later date – Wilder will fight Chisora instead.

The Usik-Wilder fight will take place if the Americans win in London. Usyk is currently expected to defend his title against another opponent; former champion Andy Ruiz Jr. “He is being considered as a possible rival,” he said.

Andy Ruiz shocked the boxing world in June 2019 when he defeated Britain’s Anthony Joshua to become the world champion. In the rematch, the Mexican American was defeated, and then had three more fights (two wins and one draw).

Usik refused to fight for the absolute title with a dangerous fighter from England

Alexander Usik He explained why he chose to fight Deontay Wilder and not Fabio Wardley for the title of absolute world champion.

According to the champion, this decision has nothing personal and is determined solely by his sporting heritage.

The Ukrainian player emphasized that history and global challenges are important to him. Usyk admitted he has long wanted to fight in the United States, and Wilder is one of the most dominant heavyweights of the last decade.

“This is not about feelings or choices between people. I’m thinking about legacy. I want to box in America and Wilder is a big name in the heavyweight division,” Usyk said.

He also emphasized that Wilder, after two victories over Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury, remains the only representative of the “Big Three” whom he has not yet met in the ring.
