I absolutely do not divide people into any religions, creeds, political views.
I'm not a monster; I'm a white rabbit.
My mom said to me: 'Sonny, you need to study English.' And I replied to her: 'Mom, I do not need it. I'm going to be horse-boy, would I speak English with horses?' Mom said: 'Darling, you need to.' But I did not listen to my mother.
Physical pain is temporary.
The team I support is Manchester City. And that's because a friend of mine, who I visited when I was in England, Alexander Zinchenko, plays for them.
I picked Tony Bellew because he is the man that takes the biggest challenges. He is not the usual type of fighter that will come, see how hard it is, and quit. He will come to fight until the end. These are the kind of fights that the world wants to see.
The fight for the Muhammad Ali trophy is about the best fighting the best.
I live in Ukraine with my family. I love my country, family, friends, people. I fight for them. I fight for Ukraine.
The toughest opponent is me. A lot of times, you don't want to train. You don't want to box. Sometimes, life hits you to the point where you don't even want to live. You have to fight with that person. You have to make yourself wake up in the morning. You have to make yourself watch your weight. That's how I fight with that person.
If you put a person in a training gym made out of entire gold, it doesn't guarantee that this person will become a champion. But if you put a person in the basement, then there is a high chance that he will get out of this basement as a champion.
I am an athlete, a warrior.
A fight with Tony Bellew would be a momentous occasion. He is a good boxer and a good person, and I also have the option to move into the heavyweight division.
I give 100 percent every day in the gym.
During my career, all my most fruitful victories have been on the opponents' territories, so the support of the British fans to Tony Bellew doesn't bother me a lot.
No-one but me gets into my head.
When I have to get prepared for a fight, I leave my family. Then I live with my team. Otherwise, it will embarrass me: the children want to play.
I hate when people call me a star, because I don't consider myself to be a star.
I heard Tony Bellew is looking for a fight with the winner of the Muhammad Ali Trophy. I hope he will see me.
I really liked the atmosphere at Wembley, and I would like to box there, too.
I need to become the undisputed heavyweight champion. As soon as I become, I will turn back and say, 'Guys, thank you very much for your participation. Thanks everyone.' I will thank the Lord, I will go to the ground and say farewell, and I will go home.
