Usyk explains why he brought toy donkey to press conference

Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk, after winning a rematch for the WBC, WBO, WBA and IBO heavyweight titles, came to the press conference with a soft toy in the form of a donkey.

The boxer explained what kind of toy it was.

"My daughter gave it to me. I gave it to her a long time ago, and she gave it to me. She said that the toy should always be with me, it will bring me strength. Do I still have strength? Yes, I have a desire to train more, to box, to enjoy myself, my team, my loved ones," the champion said.

In turn, British boxer Tyson Fury, after the fight with Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk, rejected his loss at a press conference and stated that Usyk's victory was a "Christmas gift." He added that he would believe to the end of his days that he had won this fight.
