Who’s here after he’s become undisputed ❤️
Great role model for kids of the world and every man could learn from him,physically,mentally,spiritually strong,lives with integrity. His family his country the planet is a better place with Mr Usyk in it. 😊❤
Usyk is a breath of fresh air and a great personality. What he's achieved at cruiserweight and in four fights at heavyweight is legendary stuff. If he beats Fury to become undisputed then we're talking a different stratosphere.
💯
I don't think he will and like both men a lot but usyk seems like a more loyal good person although they both are.
@@therobbieunited you say it like the heavyweight division isn't poor. Almost like you're making out Fury's been fighting killers back to back
W. Klitschko could've been undisputed easy if his brother vacated. I've never understood why people are hyped about someone holding all the belts at once (It's not really a stratosphere moment if you really think about it). It's now become a credible fight because Usyk beat AJ who has amazing commercial value! Before that people where saying ''Usyk is too small at heavyweight etc''. Also for example, If Joshua vacated before losing to Usyk and Fury went on to beat Usyk for the undisputed, people would say ''it isn't impressive because he's small and he still needs to beat AJ''. Boxing is fickle! The whole undisputed fight has been pushed by Hearn's marketing tactics but AJ blew it. Undisputed wasn't appealing before that. W. Klitschko rained for 10 years with his brother and nobody talked about undisputed ever. Even Mr Floyd Mayweather never became undisputed, people just wanted to see the Manny Pacquiao fight.
He’s better than Holyfield for sure
I'm British and I want this man to be undisputed heavyweight champion of the world
Your British but want a Ukrainian to win. Bad news usyk will end up looking like the city of KYIV.
Good for you
@@fitzanderson1980 Usyk is the King👑
Who cares if your british
I know what you mean.
How can you not love this man. Absolute classy human being.
@Tom I'd say the total scumbag is the elitist boot licking shill that's been supporting the fake proxy war that's only getting his people killed. Giving vulgar green shirt weapons so he arms civilians to go die for the gay disco = supporting WW3. say what you want about Fury he's not out their licking boots like that.
As a Ukrainian, this really helped me. The guy's an amazing boxer and an even better human. Thanks Gary!
I hope you and your loved ones are safe. All the best!

Runing out prised himself with the Saudis so he avoids this man. What a cr@ckhead f1lth
Did he really fight in the army though? Because if he didn't then why is he saying he did?
Big up to your self and hope ur family and friends are safe ❤️
Usyk: 'Hello. I was into war. I was visiting. Then I left. I feel like a coward since then, leaving my people dying in war while I live in luxury'
This guy is proper salt of the earth... He's a role model to everyone wherever you're from, I wish him all best. Best Overlap there'll be too.

Let's hope if the Fury fight develops Usyk wins and brings some dignity back to the Heavyweight scene.
Salt enhances savour for anyone wondering
He is scared to fight in Ukraine.
@@ragedapeevo7560 he already has done
Neville is a brilliant interviewer. Asks the simple but important questions that we as viewers would ask ourselves. Great watch, Usyk a class act.
Fantastic overlap! I have nothing but huge respect to Usyk, a wonderful human being, and a superb fighter. May peace come to Ukraine

The war meant so much to him he left it to go and box again. Lol. He's a coward.
@@mojorisin8368 he can do a lot more for his country as a boxer than as a soldier.
@D L I did not hear any war propaganda. It just happens that for the majority of the world war is more important as a security concern than any sports event.
He supports the nazi azov battalion so not that great of a person now is he.
How can you not like Usyk, what a legend!!!
From Mexico, and as a mexican: These type of guys are the true champions in life. Fantastic boxer , a once in a lifetime classman in boxing. But a better guy, human , dad, son, citizen, friend and spiritual dude. Congrats champ, team usyk and the team in charge of this interview. Great stuff! . In boxing we have fewer and fewer people´s champs, Mr Oleksandr is one of them!
Can’t help but like Usyk the more you watch of him, tremendous boxer. Hopefully Undisputed happens next.
What a total legend, warrior and gentleman. How can anyone have anything but maximum respect for him 😎
When his voice crackled while talking about his dad, I could not control my tears.. What a man, what a fighter.. Just love him.. thanks overlap for this wonderful insight about my favourite fighter.. Love from UK
Legend of a man.

What a guy. I'm a fury fan but I wouldn't be too upset if usyk won. Just love what he's done in the game of boxing and he just comes across as such a humble genuine man. God bless usyk.
💯 agree
If only Fury would take the fight though.
@@rafapazos06 I know. Its getting bloody annoying now
Usyk really is a humble gentleman.
Really do wish him the best!
🙂👌🏽🙏🏽
It's not often that I would support a foreign sportsman over on english one but USYK is a special man and I cant help but want him to unify the belts. A true humble champion both inside and outside of the ring. It's also great to see him speaking more English than ever. Great Overlap. 👍
We learn English because we hate speaking russian
Yea, I think I'm the same. Because Usyk is great, but because Fury is dishonest. Lots of great salesmen in boxing have not needed to manipulate and mislead so much.
@@DS-tj1vh if this latest little 70/30 fiasco isn’t enough to prove who is the most decent, fair and honest boxer then I don’t know what is.
as a fellow brit I would love nothing more
Usyk’s English has come on so much. I have always been team fury but I have huge admiration for Usyk and what he stands for. A true inspiration
Had me in tears hearing about his dad. Was the same for me, really relate and I miss my pops too, made me think of my last call with him before he passed. Great Overlap and Usyk is more than a champion, he’s a superhero.
❤️❤️❤️
Same man. I lost my dad when I was a kid, but I miss him a lot. Wish I could hear him say he loves me too.
Super guy . He deserves enormous respect on many levels . Not just for his boxing ability but the man that he is . Humble caring inspirational.
Couldn't agree more, not sure why there are 50 dislikes on this video to be honest
@@nathandc2669 My guess: 80% Fury fanboys & 20% white/Euro hating LDBC fanboys.

Yeah he's a good guy, humble with his wins against cry baby Joshua.
Great interview.
USYK = LEGEND.
Your Father is proud smiling down from the Heavens. 🙏
One of my favourite episodes. This is the first time I've ever seen Usyk open up at all to the British media. Fair play Gary!
What a warrior. There’s no weakness in them tears 👊
Best overlap interview I've seen, huge respect to Usyk - a seriously brave and humble man. Thoughts and prayers to him and his wonderful country 🇺🇦
Thank you good man! Greetings from Nikolaev ;)
That poem sent chills. Can only think of the state of mind he was in when he wrote that.
Usyk is a perfect example of having mental fortitude. I would not begrudge him becoming undisputed champion. Man, fighter, warrior, legend.
This man is a hero and a genuine role model who acts as he talks. The heart of a lion and a true warrior. This is somebody to look up to. Never mind at a young age but at any age you can learn from a man such as him. This man is strictly focused on the task at hand and mentally you can't engage in trash talk with him he is a gentleman and a gem in the sport. He deserves nothing but maximum respect.
Brilliant athlete, brilliant interview. One of the best The Overlap has done so far.
Love Usyk, he is a legend! comes across like a great guy 👍
What an absolute gem of a man!
This interview makes me feel, very feel! How can you not respect this man!
This is one of the best overlaps. Usyk is phenomenal
A tremendous story of a tremendous man that has done and will do tremendous things all while saying "I am just normal". Got to love Oleksander Usyk.
Class guest to have on the show. Love Usyk man. Absolute warrior as well.
Lol yeah he's on the front lines. Palestinian kids are more warrior like than this racist two faced, double standards coward.

Love how when Oleksandr started talking they didn’t really walk much! Such a presence!
Good on Gary for getting the Champ on!
Usyk! I boxed as an amateur in the UK. He's exactly what boxing is about, competition, integrity and facing up to the challenge. 🥊
That is an absolute hero and idol, I could never imagine how proud his father will be looking down on him. What an absolute fantastic example of an angel on earth! My heart melts ❤️
What a guy!!! Real and humble, much respect for this man!!
Love this guy! A true warrior. good fortune to him and his family
Usyk is a special Human, i wish him his family and his fellow countrymen/women all the happiness in the world.
so strong spirit! absolute athlete...and so versatile....and finally sense of humour and inner kindness.
I like how his English is improving.
hands down the best overlap episode for sure.
This man epitomises the word 'Greatness'
That was the best in depth interview I have seen in English with Usyk, and it took a footballer to get it, well done Gary that was excellent.
Hope Fury doesn't duck him and finds his pen this man deserves the chance to fulfil his destiny win or lose.
Loved this, probably my favourite overlap. Usyk is just an incredible human being and an unbelievable boxer.
Usyk is so likable and what his country is going through you have to feel for him.
What a beast Usyk is
Usyk's English is improving
Very improve
it is! but i did have to giggle when he said... "six morning 'oclock" lol
Very fascinating to learn about his upbringing. He’s made his father and his country proud. What an inspiration! Much respect 🫡
He’s the most likeable bloke ever to be in boxing
Gary, thank you for doing amazing interviews like this. What an exceptional fighter!
This is a really great interview and of course it was also great to hear Usyk's answers in English. Here we see the full spectrum of his broad personality, not just a top boxer but a humane and compassionate person who does not do things out of ego but surrenders to divine guidance.
What a guy he is. I'm a AJ fan and actually like Tyson fury too but what this guy has gone through is in real and seems so down to earth 👍
How can you not love usyk💚he’s the man! Can’t wait too see him be undisputed in the heavyweight division ain’t no one beating him 🐐really hit the heart when he brought up his father what a legend I’m sure his father would be so proud of the man his son has become one of the best too ever lace up a pair of boxing gloves 💯💯
He is an absolute dream that man. What a hero ❤️
I'm from UK and I support Usyk, and Ukraine💪💪
Really enjoyed that. Usyk seems like a great guy and I had a tear in the eye when he was talking about how much he loved his sons and told them each day to compensate for his own dad not telling him so. As someone with a similar relationship with my dad, I can sympathise with it a lot. Amazing what he is doing for Ukraine as well, legend.
This was incredible 🙏
Fantastic interview. It's nice to see how hard he's been working on his English also, considering everything else he's dealing with at the moment! Legend!
Outstanding interview! Thank you! Usyk has a heartwarming smile, but if he was angry and glaring at me with those eyes, it would be more like a heart attack.
Absolute legend and if he beats Fury then has to go down as one of the greatest to ever lace up a pair of gloves. Pretty clear who is holding up this fight.
Thank you for doing this and letting us in to Usyk's world a bit more. :)
Usyk is a special fella 😢❤
I’m feel, I’m very feel!! I’m from the UK but love Usyk, hope he wins all the belts!!
brilliant interview , Usyk , is a great role model not just as a sportsman but as a person
This was an a great insight into what Usyk has been going through.
usyk - separ
Got a lot of of respect for this great man, always liked his personality and his boxing skills.
Great job Gary and if Usyk wins against fury, which i strongly believe he will, he has to be considered as one of the best athletes ever.
I truly believe Fury won't give him any chance. I mean that in 2 ways:
1- I fancy Fury for the win. Difficult fight though.
2- Slim chance for Fury to accept to fight him. Not looking good on Fury at all.
You can't help but like Usyk...As a Brit and a fan of Fury I'd obviously be rooting for Tyson, but if Usyk were to pull it off you couldn't hate or begrudge him in the slightest.
Why are you rooting for Tyson? He refuses to fight Usyk. He’s a blemish on the sport. Fury converted me to Usyk
I'm a brit, and hope he beats fury. Just an all round more likeable character
He offered Joshua and Usyk fights last year but they both failed to sign... There's negotiatians going on right now for the Fury Vs Usyk fight...
This narrative that Fury is ducking is just ridiculous, all belts on the line in the biggest hw fight of the century and people think the fight should be made in the blink of an eye. Dumb.
@@Henry-to6yz Lol... He gave Joshua 3 weeks to sign a contract which he knew was impossible.. He never offered Usyk a fight which he failed to sign at all... Total nonsense.. Honestly you Fury fanboys will say anything to defend him..
The guy is a fraud.
@@Henry-to6yz POLE RIDER 😁
Wow Usyk is so impressive, not just as a boxer but as a man and so much class. My favourite interview of GN up to now. I love Gary's conversational interview style. Go Team Usyk
I feel for you Oleksandr. I never got to say goodbye to my father either, but he was my soul mate. This is what motivates us to be better. You are a legend.
Wow what an episode! Would not expect it from Neville.
Thank you for doing Usky ..proper gent and world class around ... amazing soul x Love Usky boxers boxer .... AN ALLL TIME GREAT
From Us Brits, your adopted by our country ...... Such a nice humble guy, not a bad bone in this fella's body. got to up there best pound for pound boxer in this era🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
USYK, your dad will be buzzing up there. He is so proud of you.👍
Usyks a man among boys... 🥊 💪 🔱
Usyk is class!
Got to love Usyk hes a true champion and a great human being . Im from the UK and everyone i know wants him to be unified champion
Absolute Legend, Can't wait for the Usyk Fury fight, All the respect to him and Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
Thank you for this Gary, that interview was real. Sadly since then, the big fight with Fury has gone down the tubes, at least until later this year (fingers crossed.) Usyk is fighting for the honour of his country and the morale of his country folk, and to unify the division, he’s not preoccupied with money, so he accepted the wrong end of that lousy 70/30 split from Fury just to get it done. But Fury continued to throw obstacles in the way, and it’s not good for Usyk to swallow too much humble pie when he’s trying to inspire his people. I completely understand why he finally told the Gypsy Queen to shove it. Fingers crossed it happens in the future, hopefully somewhere neutral like Saudi with a fair 50/50 split, if both fighters remain undefeated until then (Usyk by beating all comers, Fury by ducking them.)
One of the best overlap Interviews I’ve seen despite the language barrier. Usyk is a remarkable bloke and boxer.
Usyk is a beautiful and inspirational Man….long live Ukraine ❤
What a beautiful man he is from England
He will be one dangerous fighter with that passion.
Sorry Fury--this man can not lose to you. Just not happening. To much faith. To much spirit. To much adherence to ultimate concerns and principles. The man is as deep as he is strong. And that combined is as close a thing to being unbeatable as i can imagine
Absolutely agree that it has more meaning to Usyk and he has a deeper purpose, I completely disagree that it will be anywhere near enough to beat Fury ….. that is unless, politrics gets in the way!
bro you sound gay asf on here writing poems.. Fury will win by unanimous decision and will do lines of coke after the fight.
This fight has to happen and the biggest winner will be boxing. Whoever wins will be a great unified champion and that’s what the heavyweight division and boxing in general needs.
How Could Anyone Not Like And Respect This Man, One Of The Sporting Greats Of Our Time If Not The Greatest. Peace and Love
Legend!
Thanx so much for this footage. Been waiting a while for this. Amazing stuff & insights. What a man & roadwarrior with his no nonsense approch. Lots of respect… Total determination, lazer focus & ability. Have followed this enigma of a boxer from i saw the World boxing super series i have no doubt Mr.Usyk will be the new Undisputed & Lineal Heavyweight Champion Of The World one of these fine days. May the real King ♑️ rule for a long time 🔥
Keep Fighting #
Usyk is great for the heavyweight division. He wants to fight the best, anywhere. 👍
Legend of a man and boxer. Tyson don't want none of this guy!!
Respect Gary for this docomentry 100% going over and Usyk as well
He is already winner no matter what!! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR COUNTRY 🇺🇦♥️🥊
Pokój dla tych ludzi , wolność dla ich kraju.
This is what a champion of the world should be, just class pure class
USYK - Utter class act
I really hope this fight gets made in April. I'll be rooting for both guys.
This guy is a Godsend, a hero and exactly what a man should be.
Fury, also a great person and good big guy, likely does not want to fight him cause even if he wins he beats a man whose country needs him to win.
I think they should just fight and, whatever the result, give the whole purse to help struggling Ukrainian families. Boom!
More than just a champion. The ultimate warrior Love this guy for everything he stands for A true fighting man
