    well if you ask a ukrainian from eastern part you gonna get a complete opposite answer. it's a very delicate topic and that's why loma and usyk try to avoid those provocations not to anger one or other side of their countrymen.

    F*CK Wlad and his dry ass sense of humor. He met the wrong person, should have played around with B level opponents until AJ.

    Even at his current age I think he beats most heavys apart from AJ usyk and fury but then again age and ring rust could be a factor it would great to see him in there with maybe helenius or chisora for first fight back

    I doubt this is anything more than idle talk. I would be shocked if Wlad came back to fight Fury. A case of his mind making challenges his body can't take on.

    I would recommend a tune up vs a lesser but able live body just in case the reflexes are too far gone.

    Lets say Wlad comes back and beats Fury.
    Would that be the greatest win in boxing history?

    That loss hurts Wlad, even if he was a great HW.

    He is not another Wilder. That’s insulting.

    I've been telling you all that Fury is looking for these types of gimmick fights. It was always going to be Klitschko or Haye.

    Usyk doesn't even speak Ukrainian

    No, you are wrong, he does and does it well. He actually was speaking in Ukrainian whole press conference with Anthony Joshua (few days before the fight). Plus, he writes poems in Ukrainian and his recent Christmas greeting was in Ukrainian language on his Instagram page.

    His mother speaks Ukrainian, not Russian. And she is from Ukrainian-speaking region (Chernihivska oblast), BTW

    He also speaks in Ukrainian with his daughter.

    Here is Usyk's interview where he says he speaks in Ukrainian with his mother and daughter - https://www.rbc.ua/ukr/styler/usik-rasskazal-kem-razgovarivaet-ukrainskom-1606054271.html

    Actually, Wladimir Klitschko speaks in Ukrainian much less than Oleksandr Usyk.

    But it has to be said that language is NOT the thing that divides people in Ukraine. I have never ever heard Sergiy Derevyanchenko talking in Ukrainian language, but he is huge patriot of Ukraine.

    The thing that devide people here is being pro- Ukrainian or pro-Russia and a lot of Russian-speaking people in Ukraine actually hate putin much more than some Ukrainian-speaking onces.

    Wlad's not stupid. He will stay retired.

    Wlad could come back and probably still beat the likes of Wilder and Ortiz.

    I didn't mean that he couldn't speak it, I've seen him do so before. I meant that he doesn't use it as a first language. I didn't realize however that he spoke that much in it with his family. I thought he was about as good as it as English. (I don't speak Ukrainian so I couldn't tell.) My Canadian-Ukrainian friend told me his Ukrainian wasn't at a fluent level, so I am surprised.
