Usyk Takes the Title
15 November 2018
Ukraine can legitimately sing We are the Champions following Oleksandr Usyk’s fight on 10 November at Manchester Arena. Brit Tony Bellow worked Usyk hard, going into the eight round, but it was Usyk’s brutal left hook that sent him flying to the mat, unable to get back up.
With the IBF, WBA, WBC, WBO cruiserweight belts, as well as The Ring Magazine belt in his pocket, the Simferopil-born fighter is officially the world’s absolute boxing champion, and we here at What’s On couldn’t be more proud.
