On Tuesday, heavyweight boxing champion Oleksandr Usyk was detained at an airport in Poland.
According to a report from ESPN, the Ukrainian superstar was handcuffed and escorted off a jet bridge at Krakow Airport in Poland while trying to board a flight to Valencia, Spain where he’s expected to begin preparing for his highly anticipated rematch with Tyson Fury on December 21 in Saudi Arabia.
According to a source, Usyk and his trainer, Sergey Lapin, were denied boarding after an airline official determined they were not fit to travel.
Fortunately, the incident was resolved quickly according to Usyk who took to social media shortly after his release.
