[@joaomatheusMS]

Let's be honest, it's impossible to dislike Usyk.

[@turyhumphrey7767]

Very true I agree his a very likable person

[@zeemoney2161]

I love and respect him so much.

[@asoep283]

Dont you know the new motto? 'If he is white, then he is not alright'. Welcome to upressed era my friend.

[@dadawdadadadawdaw7832]

white man colonizer, when aj brutally destroys usyk , DONT MAKE EXCUSES AND DONT DISCREDIT AJ FACTS!!!!!!!!!!

[@patrickmonkman8151]

It will never happen but would love to see him fight fury and Wilder

[@360Fov]

His manager did a great job giving an unbiassed and totally honest commentary, props to him.

[@danielhenry4365]

Crazy how Usyk has the same height, reach, around same weight, and birthday as Muhammad Ali... and he won that Ali trophy.. and employs a footwork-minded slick boxer style similarly (general similarities not entirely of course) to Ali...

[@breal1250]

Usyk is a fantastic bloke and amazingly talented Boxer, respect to AJ for fighting such a tricky opponent and may the best man win.

[@mikalaiho]

This guy shows how much he cares about the world, he’s not full of himself like most other heavyweight champions.😏

[@houndofthebaskervilles7964]

Hope usyk wins. Shout out from Manchester 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦

[@simonrichardson8181]

Traitor

[@augustinasmatulis2399]

This guy is humble, honest and and you can feel pure simplicity coming out of him. Usyk is pure motivation. Thanks Sasha. Litva staboi.

[@yoyowazup7508]

Its very refreshing to see the calm and respectful approach of ukrainians and east europeans to thr sport, compared to thr loud blablahblah of many american boxers and promoters

[@user-hh4zj7dy3s]

God with Usyk🙏🏆🇺🇦

[@andrewk8857]

What an impressive guy. Such rare humility and gratitude. A real Christian perhaps?

[@ZeeWorldwideTV]

I got a feeling Usyk will do himself proud no matter the outcome 👊🏼

[@lazycarper7925]

he win on points

[@idsaudiochannel564]

cant wait until usyk fights joshua hes gonna school him honestly and the new wold heavyweight champion of the world

[@miriampoe5507]

I'm so glad to finally watch a documentary about Usyk. I do believe that with his faith and skills he will be triumphant! Great personality. My favorite. Go Usyk!!

[@karlobujan]

Usyk is a legend. Always awesome to see him fight. Would love to see him as The HeavyWeight Champ!!!

[@TazConlon]

Watching this made me feel very feel.

[@davidparker4257]

Its impossible not to love this guy and pray and hope that he wins every fight he participates in . Hope you win champ😄😄

[@Megaron000]

From everyone in the UK.. we’re routing for you 🇬🇧

[@williamgolding7126]

Weirdly I just can't picture him losing. I have watched him fight for a very long time and he always seems to find a way through even in the tough moments. I'm completely aware of the danger that AJ brings but still, Usyk is a winner.

[@Unknown-ny4ei]

Neither can I, I just can’t see in my head Usyk losing but I can AJ because we have seen him Lose, it’s a very close fight, may the best man win

[@jlidz]

I think if he can avoid getting ko and go the distance he will win

[@baronmontesqieu1075]

I hope this guy become heavyweight champ. Humble, skilled, and determined

[@Craggles365]

I’ve been watching Boxing since I was a kid in the 80s and always 💯 supported the British, for the first time I will not mind if the none British guy wins. Props to Usyk and AJ. Both really good ambassadors of the sport.

[@Pawel_Strong]

Finally, a movie about Usyk. This video should have been uploaded a long time ago. #Team_Usyk

[@healthshelf355]

Take the hype around AJ away for a moment. Usyk is superior in everyway in the ring EXCEPT power. So does Usyk have the ability to evade punches? Yes. Does he have the tank to do it for 12 rounds? Yes. Usyk wilk expose AJ like he's never been exposed before. This will be gradual damage to the body until he'a ready to go to work. Usyk on points.

[@justkingj5450]

Can't help but comment how eloquently Usyks manager spoke of him and his character. Makes you want him to win. Humble beginnings certainly produce great character.

[@ivancbr600rr]

Bellew told to Usyk he is a superstar, Usyk told him that the stars go off, so he is not superstar. Now telling to AJ is a superstar he mean he will go off

[@vladwhite8744]

В топ

[@glennr2358]

Liked Usyk and his manager before, like them even more now.

[@user-ok4wr4zm5i]

The dancer will win No one can get into him. God keeps him

[@LeeJCander]

It's great seeing how much his coach genuinely believes in him beyond just fighting. Believes in his character😌

[@Andrij_Kozak]

Loma‘s father is his coach !

[@bobybob149]

Usyk will give us the best performance 🥊💥 🥊💥

[@rizzledizzle3443]

Great to see them speak respectfully of AJ and his achievements, I'm sort of sick of all the trash talk nonsense to sell fights

[@becksarmour9922]

I want Usyk to go and Win this and I truly believe he can.... Beautiful fighter.. Legend in the Ring ... 💖💯👆🙏🇬🇧

[@sanjit_misra]

Joshua and Usyk are two of the best in the world rn, this is a great matchup!

[@theinvisiblegiraffe9842]

A genuine 50/50 fight. Got my money on Usyk. Goodluck sir

[@cerveza_santiago]

A different kind of person. Love to see it. Come on USYK

[@arthurarsekey6634]

Serious respect to AJ if he can beat Usyk as he is one of the best boxers i have ever watched in 30 odd years. I dont actually mind who wins but if I was a betting man i would put it on Usyk.

[@user-cz2po9qe7z]

Ukrainians with you our countryman and I believe a lot of people support you! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🏆🏆🏆👊👊👊

[@erichhartmann6926]

5:15 Buggs Bunny socks 😭 😭 😭 Now I want him to win even more

[@lucavelli9723]

great warrior spirit. this is how you display high levels of confidence and inner mental and spiritual balance in a sane manner without offending anyone either to underestimate them or to attract more eyes and catch attention as response to silly instinctive inclinations. Usyk is mentally and morally reasonable and sane much respect to him

[@Hmellon92]

After watching this, I would love to hear more from Usyk’s manager. Speaks brilliantly and with a lot of respect. Seems like a good bunch of people.

[@mantasufc]

I love this guy. Smart. Humble. Skilled. Also I love AJ. They both are great Athletes, great personalities, great examples for young kids!

[@2012DVSONE]

God has protected me from many things

[@nikolapenic6443]

Reminds me of Stipe Miočić. Greetings from Croatia 🇭🇷 God bless you and your family

[@darylshields4365]

Great video, much love to Usyk! Unbelievable to watch every single time. The way the feet move inspire me every session

[@INEBRIATEDEPIPHANIES]

I’m rooting for AJ, but I’m also a fan of Usyk. Let’s appreciate the fact that we have two top tier HW’s who don’t duck anyone and are always game to fight the best. May the best man win.

[@benhumphreys8952]

A man that loves what he does and life itself - very inspiring to the next generation!

[@FIHRR-bd8uy]

One of my favourite fighters great character still got Joshua mid / late KO may the best man win on the night wish them both well can’t frigging wait 👍👊

[@liam3664]

Usyk does it! Verry good video. One week to fightnight and I realy belive Usyk will come out victorious if he gives hes all. May god go with him. I dont want AJ to loose but I want to see Usyk WIN.

[@Animefightforum]

Props to both fighters. I’d love for Usyk to win because he has had an amazing journey so far. Whoever wins and whoever loses, I’ll cheer both for giving us this fight. I hope the rest of the boxing divisions look to this and mirror it. The best fighting the best is what its about, not who can fight the next youtuber or mma clown or protecting your precious “0”. Go Usyk !!

[@tomgunn6086]

Usyk is a beast, mentality, skill, boxing IQ and as a man

[@blitzbane4135]

Usyk is a great fighter with a great attitude, this can make the difference, they are both skillful fighters - Great stuff!

[@morgan1985uk]

So hyped for this fight 🥊

[@zeemoney2161]

I have great love and respect for him. He loves God so much. May the best man win 🥇

[@Bardamu3000]

Usyk is certanly one of a kind. Great Athlete and unified Champion. He is also crazy.

[@garygreen5170]

Impossible to dislike AJ or Usyk really looking forward to this fight

[@noodles74]

His conditioning is incredible.

[@jose-Maki]

You just can't dislike the guy, hope he pulls it off

[@Mr.Rude.]

Great fight. May the best man win.

[@mrspecialk1234]

Love the “you superstar” troll at the end….that goes back to the Belles fight where called Usyk a superstar and Usyk said NO, stars go out….I think Usyk is going to try and stop Joshua late….and who can blame him?….I don’t think the judges will be ruling in his favour…

[@ferrismark9167]

Against Chisora, Usyk weighed the same as Ali and Foreman in the Rumble in the Jungle. Same height too. He ain't that f... cking small.

[@danplasma]

props to matchroom, i just subscribed, this isnt just yt garbage, especially the beginning where Usyk talks about working the farm growing up...some powerful real documentary content, thanks Matchroom

[@bobjohn1234]

I am english but i really want usyk to win,i want usyk to prove that skill beats size and power ,that is the art of boxing the reason it is called the sweet science.i am an athiest so i dont go along with the god stuff but i respect if people want to believe its up to them.i am sure alot of Britain will be behind you usyk ,good luck my friend.

[@slicusdadon]

That statement implies that AJ is not skilled. You making it sound like he is where he is because of his size and not boxing ability. Bit of a ridiculous thing to say to someone who is an Olympic gold medallist. Sounds like there is another reason outside of skill that you don't like AJ for. Particularly that he is your fellow countryman.

[@justinalford8]

come on usyk you got this.

[@paulo7507]

ffs i love both of these guys, i really dont want to see any of them lose but sadly someones gonna have to :(

[@Jack-gz5ne]

Plot twist - draw

[@scottybottybanana]

Uysk is quality! One of the funniest boxers, more docos of him with subtitles would be great! Those bugs bunny socks! I have a feeling we could see a rematch straight aftet this one!

[@markolinhocsgo]

"Hey Anthony i send you "HELLO!" you very good boxer you superstar" - Usyk 2021

[@UthmanG]

Love how Usyk carries himself. Great man, great fighter

[@dipaloksahapantha9996]

Let's go usyk 💪💪💪

[@salvitoripopadillo4539]

From all I keep learning about this guy, I can now say that he is the most inspiring person that I follow! He's a real life hero! It doesn't matter if he wins a boxing match! God bless this man!

[@d3m1tar]

Good luck to both fighters!

[@zorrosp7483]

This is going to be a great fight

[@jantaraszkiewicz894]

Incredible Man, because so straightforward and honest. IT should be more common among humankind

[@stackmosayless-1669]

I like 👍🏽 Usyk and AJ not about show but about the sport. Usyk coach sounds very level headed.

[@timetraveller3063]

Usyk foot work and movement is insanely brilliant. Not in a Mike Tyson or Ali way, but in Usyk way. Usyk does not appear too bulked up either which is a good omen. I honestly think AJ will be in for a tough fight.

[@valdasulevicius7738]

Slava Ukraine!!! 🇱🇹❤️🇺🇦

[@oleglilu5003]

thanks to our real brouthers Lithuanians!

[@thomascameron4850]

This really could be called the gentleman's fight. Both men really are humble decent and solid and absolutely should be looked up to by younger generations.

[@davidball9287]

What a great little insight into preparation for a major fight, usyk and his team are very respectful people and it’s nice to see this been showing towards AJ and his team, I’m sure the same respect is forthcoming from AJ and his team for usyk also, it will be a tough fight for AJ and usyk is no mug, it really is set up to be a superb fight and look forward to watching it on Saturday.

[@MrArtyoma]

He's an inspiration great athlete and worthy champion!

[@solderbuff]

Two thinkers and gentlemen in the ring... Both deadly skilled. Man, it's already the fight of the year for me!

[@waynebellshaw8235]

Such a grounded man, especially considering what he has already achieved. He always finds a way to win, and I think he will beat a.j one way or another.

[@user-jl4ef8sw7k]

Everything about team usyk is cool calm and collected

[@orestshepetyuk5362]

Papachenko is out of cameras as always, but he is there all the time, so ... ;)

[@romandorosh8473]

Usyk is a icon of true champion. Just not one day champion but in long term. His mentality is unbelieveble. Hello from 🇺🇦

[@MrTibTib1991]

I will support Joshua because he's British and from Watford (where I'm from,) but I have become a fan of Usyk: love his character and what he said about faith.

[@irifyan4643]

May god give victory to usyk

[@mattbuckley392]

Awesome fight. Both great Olympians and Athletes and so many pro's and con's with both fighters .... a proper 50 50 must see.

[@alexv3741]

Саня, Киев за тебя

[@maisonMaple]

This is a bloody great mini-docu! Thanks for that

[@mrego3956]

Brit here but would love to see Usyk win. Good luck champ!

[@soulvaccination8679]

Usyk is my favorite fighter right now...

[@dawidschmid3855]

Ukraine 🇺🇦 top athlete and for me win 🏆

[@Paulieg-oz2qz]

Let’s go usyk

[@hasanchy1381]

I don't know why i feel like usyk will beat AJ.

[@john7360]

Cos you are sick

[@GoYourOwnWay86]

He’s such a breath of fresh air. A proper likeable guy. Kind of getting split loyalties as this fight approaches but believe me when I say this will not be easy for Joshua and I actually fancy Usyk to do a job on him. South paw, skilled boxer, faster and will prob only weigh 10-15 lbs less come fight night. Nobody has been able to beat him yet and Joshua has tasted defeat and has been rocked and and knocked down on a few occasions.

[@jason-gf8dg]

I wish usyk all tbs best when fighting AJ.

[@LondonSoundSystem]

This is definitely one of the best peices I have seen on the subject of boxing, the pace, insight and photography is very coalescent, in a complimentary way.

[@lendavies165]

I’m behind Joshua all the way and I pray he comes through this fight but I can’t deny that this man Usyk is a class act and a lovely guy. Joshua will have to be better than he’s ever been to have a chance of winning this.

[@IronHorsey3]

A great and humble champion; his dignity is matched by his love of family and country.

[@blackmagickgenetics]

I believe that Usyk will win this fight.

[@Rehabdoc94]

Usyk's gonna win , he's too good for AJ

[@lbsince89]

That footwork training was something else 😳 joshua has to be sharp this fight here is very dangerous
