    Fun video of the two great Ukrainians. Usyk says he ain't going to weigh 218-220 lbs, aims 214 lbs with low body fat. Enjoy their training:

    Usyk is going to be a great coach after he retires

    Also seems like a good guy in civil life

    That guy was Douche bag asking Usyk to kick him. People are ridiculous

    Usyk’s shoulder mobility is atrocious. Just improving that will help out his punching power at heavyweight.

    dude's going to get knocked out cold i'm sure of it, he has no power, he and gassiev should have stayed at cruiserweight.

    Maybe against prime Lewis or Wlad, the current division is not that deep.

    Usyk should have learned from Chris Byrd!

    To punch, not to kick.

    ?? I guess lost in translation. Still the guy asked Usyk to punch him numerous times. (?)
    Usyk basically said you have to pay me lol?

    I think it's smart for him to be as mobile as possible at the weight.
    Usyk's #FOCUSB*TCH shirt is very feel too by the way.

    Maybe the wrong translation. Torokhtiy asks Usyk to punch him. Usyk answers: I punch people in the face only for money LOL
