Eddie HERN: Usyk and Lomachenko are incredibly talented, strong in spirit
Well-known British organizer Eddie Hearn shared his views on Ukrainian boxing stars Oleksandr Usyk and Vasyl Lomachenko:
“They are incredibly talented, very talented, strong in spirit. They are strong men, their lives have changed a lot. If you document everything they’ve experienced, started, and accomplished, it turns out that it changes a person.
All my communication with Usyk was through Alexander Krasyuk. But I always had the feeling Usyk saw me in Matchroom and thought: “I was treated fairly. I was treated well, never lied to, never crossed the line.” I’m not saying he’ll be with us forever, but I have respect.
It seems to me that this is how the world works for such people. If you manage to gain their trust, they will be loyal to you in return.”
