"It was rightly denied". Ryanair has issued a statement giving the reason for Usyk's arrest in Poland
Ryanair has stated the situation with the detention of WBC, WBA, WBO, and IBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk. On the evening of September 17, the Ukrainian boxer was arrested at the airport in the Polish city of Krakow.
Ryanair explained that the conflict was caused by an incident with Usyk's friend, who "was rightly denied boarding a Buzz flight from Krakow to Thessaloniki (September 17) by a Krakow airport employee due to his inappropriate behavior."

"Mr. Usyk was not denied boarding, but he decided not to board. After boarding, an airport employee called for help, where the passengers were met by airport police," Tribuna.com quoted the airline as saying.
The day before, MP Zhan Beleniuk posted two videos showing Usyk being taken away in handcuffs by law enforcement officers.
Usyk himself called what happened at the Krakow airport a misunderstanding. On his Instagram, the boxer wrote a short post thanking everyone for their concern.
The next day, promoter Oleksandr Krasiuk explained what happened. According to him, Usyk's friend fell asleep while waiting for his board turn, and the airline staff decided that he was intoxicated.
