Ukrainian boxer Vasyl Lomachenko has decided to end his professional career, which was unexpected for fans of the sport. In his statement, he thanked Lord Jesus Christ and his father and coach for all the victories and failures in the ring and in life.
«In the life of any athlete, there comes a moment when he hangs up his gloves. In our history, this day has come. First of all, I would like to thank our Lord Jesus Christ for everything he has done for us.

I am grateful for all the victories, failures in the ring, and in life», – said Lomachenko.
