Heavyweight world champion according to the WBC, WBA and IBF versions Oleksandr Usyk addressed the fans on the occasion of the feast of the Baptism of the Lord. The Ukrainian boxer published a short greeting on social networks, addressing the Orthodox audience.

“Thank God for everything. Happy holiday, Orthodox,” Usyk wrote.

It should be noted that most Ukrainian Orthodox communities, after the transition to the New Julian calendar, celebrate the Baptism of the Lord on January 6.

At the same time, this holiday falls on January 19 according to the Julian calendar, which is still observed by some believers.
