Oleksandr Usyk Relaunches His Promotion Company with Ambitious Plans<\/h2>\n\n\nThe unified heavyweight champion, Oleksandr Usyk, has reactivated his promotional company with the firm intention of organizing a boxing tournament in Kyiv, Ukraine, during the spring.\n\nThe “Usyk17” group, which operated since 2020, was forced to suspend its activities following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. Now, Usyk and his team are stepping up their plans, focusing on the development of the next generation of Ukrainian boxers.\n\n\n

“Usyk17 is back. This spring in Kyiv, we want to organize a big tournament, which we will announce at a later date,” Usyk declared. “Exclusively, these boxers will be young Ukrainian prospects and we will help them achieve their goals. We will do everything in our power for the growth of new champions in our country.”<\/p>Oleksandr Usyk<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nUsyk has been a fervent defender of his country since the invasion. His Usyk Foundation supports and donates funds to the army, and both he and boxer Vasiliy Lomachenko joined a territorial defense battalion after the invasion.\n\nNow, the three-time undisputed champion seeks to contribute to the development of future boxing stars.\n\n\n

“The renewed promotion aims to redefine the traditional boxing model, focusing not only on the organization of fights, but also on athletes as long-term personalities and brands,” according to a statement from Usyk’s team.<\/p>Usyk’s Team<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\"Oleksandr<\/figure>\n\n\nBuilt as a digital platform, Usyk17 Promotions will emphasize storytelling, media presence, and strategic career development as its main competitive advantages.\n\nThe promotion will initially focus on the development of Ukrainian boxers, with the aim of preparing them to continue Usyk’s legacy and emerge as the next Ukrainian stars of world boxing.\n\nThe first major signings, along with the announcements of the promotion’s first events, are expected to be revealed later in February.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
