“WBO President Gustavo Olivieri was surprised that the Ukrainian left the WBO title”, — write: sport.ua
“It was unexpected, but Usyk is a former absolute champion in cruiserweight, absolute champion in heavyweight. His first belt in his career was the WBO title, he is an incredible champion in and out of the ring, a true gentleman and ambassador of the sport.
I wish Oleksandr all the best, the WBO door is always open for him and his team. It is a great honor for us to have such a champion as Oleksandr Usyk in our family,” Olivieri said.
Previously, the WBC, WBA and IBF heavyweight title holder (over 90.7 kg) Oleksandr Usyk (24–0, 15 KOs) talked about his plans and admitted when he intends to end his professional career. The boxer recently made the WBO title vacant and lost the status of absolute world champion.
