Usyk confirms next fight will be his ‘last dance’
Oleksandr Usyk has said that his next boxing match will be his “last dance”, indicating he plans to retire after it. The announcement matters because Usyk is a two-time undisputed world champion and one of boxing’s leading heavyweight figures.
The BBC Sport video does not identify Usyk’s next opponent, date or venue. The 39-year-old Ukrainian has become undisputed champion in two weight divisions, first at cruiserweight and later at heavyweight.
- Usyk says his next bout will be his last.
- No opponent or date was announced.
- He is a two-time undisputed world champion.
