Legendary coach Teddy Atlaswho once trained Mike Tyson, spoke about the legacy of Ukrainian heavyweight Oleksandr Usyk.
“Usyk passed every challenge on his way with dignity. I think his name can be placed alongside the names of the greatest heavyweights of all time.
We have many great athletes: Jack Johnson: Muhammad Ali, Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano, Jack Dempsey. And Usyk reached their level,” said Atlas.
