Usyk Parts Way with Krassyuk – Fallout promoter three weeks before Dubois Showdown
Published
10 months agoon
Oleksandr Usyk divides from many years of promoter Alexander Krassyuk just three weeks before Daniel Dubois Rematch in Wembley, leaving fans with asking: What is the hell happening behind the scenes?
The rematch is set: Oleksandr Utyk vs. Daniel Dubois on July 19 at the Wembley stadium, live stream in Dazn at 19:00 in Great Britain / 14.00 et. And now, just a few weeks, Usyk dropped the bomb-he became a long time from his long-term promoter Alexander Krassyuk. After 12 years together and two unquestioned course, this breakdown was not expected. There is no public drama, but you have to wonder what is happening behind the veil.
When the warrior is as surgical and private as Usyk, in a way that took him from Olympic gold to the united in two divisions-just before the rematch of ponderous makeup-this is not “business as usual”. It’s a signal. What? We all guess.
From gold to glory: 12 years, two divisions and heritage built in silence
Krasyuk and Usyk were not some shiny duo on Instagram. They worked in the shade and built something that would fall in history. Usyk turned to the Pro after London 2012, signed with the promotion of Krassyuk and K2, and in 10 fights he was the champion of WBO Cruiser Wweight after service Krzysztof Głowacki.
Then a tear of union came: WBSS wins over Bliedis and Gassiev, made Usyk the undisputed king of cruisers. He came up, everyone doubted him, and by 2021 he made Anthony Joshua look like a sparring partner. Then he dismantled Dubois in 2023 and took Tyson Fury to school in 2024.
And now after all? Krassyuk publishes goodbye on Instagram.
“It was a huge journey – 12 years of incredible success … In 2013 I gave you my word – and I kept it. At that time, no one believed that we were able to achieve what we decided to do.”
He added:
“Thanks to God’s grace, we completed an impossible mission … Fulfilling dreams !!! Thank you for everything we went through, and for this honor be a distinctive distinctional distinctive for the unquestioned.”
You usually don’t see breakup posts that sound like a sermon, right?
What’s next from Usyk – Fans requires a response to the London rematch
There is one reason why it matters: it is timing. Sharing with the promoter weeks before the fight Dangerous heavy weight like dubois? It’s not just a “cleaning house”. This is a huge change. Or Usyk is blocking in full control – or something behind the scenes has become ugly and nobody says.
Can it affect the fight? Maybe. Probably not. Usyk does not need noise. But the real question is: Who is calling the shots now? Is he promoting himself? Does another team slip quietly?
Krassyuk helped build Usyk in a historical figure-a double unquestioned, one of three men in the era of four stripes. No scandal. No mess. Just a heritage. But now it is outside, and silence is louder than any press statement.
What is the move now? Does Usyk run his own program? Did any huge fish slip into his camp? Could any of this throw him out of the match against Dubois? He was chosen to the maximum, but Boxing loves a surprise.
Here is the lower line: Fans deserve clarity.

Adrien Broner Flight Post leaves comeback hanging in the balance
Published

Adrien Broner has sparked fresh concern after he shared a late-night post from a flight showing multiple drinks as questions continue to mount over his boxing future.
The former four-division world champion posted the clip with the caption, “I’m almost close to Denzel on this,” referring to the film – a comparison that raises its own questions.
The backlash was almost immediate, with comments ranging from mockery to concern as Broner’s latest appearance came days after a tumultuous run that had already cast doubt on his latest comeback attempt.
Some questioned whether the return rumors had died down, while others took a more direct assessment of the current state of affairs. A smaller number urged Broner to peaceful down, but the overall reaction pointed in one direction: uncertainty.
Same pattern, fresh moment
Fasting is not an isolated moment. It follows a pattern in which failures are quickly followed by promises of redemption.
This comes after a messy period in which Broner was already given a “last chance” opportunity to return to the game after admitting he had returned to street life and was asking for one last chance.
Since then, events have unfolded rapidly, from a 48-hour spiral that required intervention to prevent drinking and driving, to further fallout involving those around him. Each moment reinforced the same question: had anything actually changed?
Adrien Broner under pressure
Broner continues to beg, begging for another chance. The final comeback is already approaching the next evening’s moment, when the former champion reaches the age of 37 and is running out of time to make the same promises.
It seems that Don King has become another promoter who has failed to tame “The Problem” who is intent on chasing quick money while living the same lifestyle – it’s getting tiring to repeat it.
For a fighter once on the verge of becoming a superstar, the gap between promise and reality has never been greater.
What will happen next?
There are no longer concerns about whether Broner will be able to return to the ring.
It’s a question of whether he can stay on track long enough to get back on track.
The recording speaks for itself. The reaction was sobering. The question is now elementary – is it the same cycle again?

“I think one or two more fights,” Ramirez told Fight Hub TV when asked about his long-term plans. “I have been practicing this sport for a long time.”
Ramirez, 33, said that while he still wants to continue his career for now, he is already thinking about how his career will end, not how long it can be extended. Ramirez said he has achieved key goals in the sport, including becoming world champion in two divisions, but still wants to perform at the highest level before he retires.
That pursuit begins with Benavidez, a fight that Ramirez believes will define his status and push his name further to the top of the sport.
“I will beat him. That’s my plan, to fight Opetaia,” said Gilberto about his desire to fight former IBF cruiserweight champion Jai Opetaia.
It’s a shoot-for-the-stars plan for Ramirez, but you can’t blame him for wanting to fight Opetaia. The biggest obstacle is not only the fight itself, but also where Jai Opetaia currently sits. Jai is now the face of Dana White’s Zuffa Boxing.
At the same time, Ramirez hinted at one last twist before his retirement. When asked about moving up again, he left the door open to a possible heavyweight fight, even admitting that he may not be the biggest fighter in the division.
“Why not?” Ramirez talked about moving up to heavyweight. “That would be amazing.”
If Zurdo loses to Benavidez, his plan for Opetaia will likely evaporate and he may just go straight to the heavyweight event for one last payday before he suspends them.

Eddie Hearn expects Mayweather vs Pacquiao 2 fight to be canceled and replaced with world title fight
Published

The final decision may come after the Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao rematch drama ends.
Earlier this year, it was announced that Mayweather and Pacquiao were set to fight professionally more than 10 years after their first meeting, with the event streaming live on Netflix and taking place on September 19 at The Sphere in Las Vegas.
In recent weeks the duel was in doubt, after Mayweather stated that the fight would instead be an exhibition, while Pacquiao continues to insist that it must be a fully sanctioned fight.
Since it is currently unknown whether this will actually come to fruition, this has probably given the clearest signal that this will no longer happen.
Conversation with FightHypepromoter Eddie Hearn said he thinks Netflix can now focus on the WBC welterweight title fight between Ryan Garcia and Conor Benn, essentially replacing the Mayweather-Pacquiao event.
“It’s all a mess. I’m surprised Netflix got into this whole circus… Netflix is modern to boxing, but they need to be a little more solid in the routine because you can’t actually call the fight and it just falls by the wayside and it just doesn’t look great.”
“NO [I don’t believe it will happen]not now. Netflix is only going to do so many fights and the Benn-Garcia fight is now said to be on September 12 or whenever that happens, so obviously this is the fight to replace Mayweather-Pacquiao.
“If it happened Mayweather-Pacquiao, they are committed to that fight, but if it doesn’t happen they will want another fight and from the sound of it it will be Garcia vs. Benn.”
The world title fight between Garcia and Benn has been widely discussed this month, and if Hearn is right, it could spell the end of any hopes of Mayweather and Pacquiao fighting again.
