Briefly

Daniel Lapin, a light heavyweight boxer from Ukraine, is preparing to fight unbeaten Brit Lewis Edmondson as part of a notable card featuring Oleksandr Usyk.

He draws motivation from his training partnership with Usyk and aspires to join the ranks of past Ukrainian boxing greats. Lapin embraces the pressure of the match as motivation and strives to become a part of Ukrainian boxing history.
"For me it's pure motivation. Of course, it only motivates me. It'll be a great honor for me if my name becomes part of Ukrainian boxing history as well as world boxing history."
