WBC, WBA, WBO, and IBO heavyweight title holder Oleksandr Usyk (23-0, 14 KOs) attended a football match in the 21st round of the Saudi Arabian championship. The Ukrainian, who arrived in Riyadh for the Bivol vs. Beterbiev 2 boxing night, decided to watch the Al Nassr game.

Our compatriot put on a yellow Al Nassr shirt before the match against Al Etifaq and supported the team for which Cristiano Ronaldo plays.

Usyk ran onto the pitch of the King Saud Stadium and made a signature gesture of celebrating Ronaldo's goal. In response, the stands cheered enthusiastically.

During the match, the Ukrainian heavyweight appeared on the stadium's big screens several times, provoking a standing ovation from the stands.

It is worth noting that such a performance by Oleksandr did not help Al Nassr, who lost with a score of 2-3. The capital's club ranks fourth in the standings.

As reported by OBOZ.UA, the boxing evening in Riyadh on February 22 will be held without Daniel Dubois, who withdrew from the fight with Joseph Parker (35-3, 23 KOs) due to illness. Despite this, Usyk intends to seek a new fight from the Briton.

Parker will now fight Congolese Martin Bakole (21-1, 16 KOs), and the winner of the fight will become a mandatory contender for a fight with Oleksandr. At the same time, the World Boxing Organization (WBO) intends to make an exception for the Ukrainian super-champion to defend his titles.
