Oleksandr Usyk, holder of the WBC, WBA, and IBF heavyweight titles, met Ilia Topuria in the United States. The Spanish-Georgian fighter is the undefeated UFC featherweight champion. As 24tv reports, Usyk showed off his Spanish skills during the meeting, telling Topuria: “Viva español.” A corresponding video was published on Instagram.
Usyk’s visit to the US coincides with a historic sporting event. On Sunday, June 14, Topuria defends his title against interim champion Justin Gaethje at the Freedom 250 tournament. The event takes place for the first time on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington – marking the 250th anniversary of US independence and the 80th birthday of Donald Trump, who came up with the idea. The main fights begin on Monday, June 15, at 05:00 Kyiv time. In Ukraine, Setanta Sports broadcasts live.
Usyk had previously held an official meeting with US Donald Trump at the White House. The Ukrainian’s stay in the US was thus marked by several high-profile encounters.
