Olexander Usyk defeated Tyson Fury for the second time, and in honor of his victory, we decided to tell you about the cars that the undisputed king of heavyweight boxing has owned over the years.
Moskvich 412
Let's start with the 37-year-old Ukrainian boxer's first car. It's a Moskvich 412, but it's not even his, it's his father's. The future champion first gets behind the wheel of his parents' car and learns to drive it.
Kia Sorento
The Korean SUV became his first own car when Oleksandr Usik was already famous in boxing circles. However, the Kia was owned by Usyk for a short time, as 2 weeks after the purchase, his wife Katerina crashed it.
Skoda Octavia
The boxer's next car is a Skoda Octavia, which Usyk decorates with the image of Muhammad Ali. In 2013, however, Usyk himself was involved in an accident in Simferopol, Alexander's hometown.
Volvo XC90
For his victory at the 2012 Olympics, the athlete received a Volvo XC90 from the Boxing Federation of Ukraine.
Toyota Land Cruiser 200
However, he uses the crossover for a short time (apparently it did not "fit") and replaces it with a Toyota Land Cruiser 200.
Lexus LX
In 2018 Oleksandr Usyk replaces the Japanese Land Cruiser 200 with the premium vehicle Lexus LX.
Mercedes-Benz GLS
Shortly after that, the boxer acquired a Mercedes-Benz GLS, which in the spring of 2021 was taken to a penalty parking lot for improper parking, from where the photos are.
Replica of the G-Klasse 6x6
In the same 2021, after the victory over Anthony Joshua, the legendary athlete decided to treat himself to a well-deserved gift. Usik bought himself a Gelendwagen with 6 wheels. But we are not talking about the original Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6×6 worth over 1 million euros, but about a replica created by Ukrainian craftsmen.
It should be noted that according to the information about the modified Gelendwagen in the database, the number KI0017TT was initially indicated as a G55 AMG from 2007. It is easy to guess that it served as the basis for the replica of the six-wheeled SUV.
BMW M760Li
For one reason or another, the same numbers were “transferred“ of the BMW M760Li xDrive (G12) in an extremely rare color and with a 6.6-liter V12 BiTurbo engine, which becomes Usyk's next car.
Audi RS Q8
In the same year 2021, Oleksandr Usyk bought an Audi RS Q8 with a power of 600 horsepower. But in 2023, the champion decided to radically modify and individualize it. The Audi RS Q8 was modified in the ALANTON Performance studio. Its interior is upholstered in leather, Alcantara and carbon with contrasting green inserts and stitching, and integrated lighting has been added. The logos with the letters A and Ώ appear in the headrests of the front seats. Apparently, this is a reference to the quote from the Bible: “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end“. An image of a cat has been added to the back of the seats (Usyk's nickname is Kotka).
Bentley Bentayga
It should be noted that the team (and his team members are over 100) of the current world heavyweight champion also has enough fans of expensive and luxurious cars. For example, the Ukrainian athlete's trainer has a Bentley Bentayga.
Usyk's next car. Maybe a Bugatti?
We wonder what kind of gift on wheels Usyk will give himself this time? Maybe it's time to buy a Bugatti? His fee from the last fight definitely allows it. After all, it's $114 million, which is definitely deserved!
