Ukrainian WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk spoke about his football idols.

"Among Ukrainian football players I like Andriy Shevchenko.

But long ago, when I was a little boy and watched football, I really liked Batistuta. And Rooney," Usyk said in a blitz poll on the USYK17 YouTube channel.

By the way, Gabriel Batistuta, who is a legend of Fiorentina, finished his career back in 2005, but did not become a coach. Wayne Rooney, after hanging his boots on a nail two years ago, headed Derby County, and now works at DC United.

Andriy Shevchenko after the national team of Ukraine and unsuccessful arrival in Genoa remains unemployed. He is currently engaged in volunteering.
