Undisputed heavyweight champion and co‑founder of the boxing platform Ready to Fight
Oleksandr Usyk (born 17 January 1987) is a Ukrainian professional boxer who became the first male boxer to hold the undisputed heavyweight and cruiserweight championships in the four‑belt era.

He then beat Tyson Fury in 2024 to become undisputed heavyweight champion, and regained the undisputed crown in July 2025. Outside the ring, Usyk launched the boxing‑focused platform Ready to Fight (RTF) and has formed iGaming partnerships, notably with supplier GR8 Tech.
Usyk has also become a keynote speaker at iGaming events such as the SBC Summit 2025 and was featured in GR8 Tech’s ICE Barcelona stand, bridging the sports and gaming industries. He continues to box professionally while building his entrepreneurial presence in the iGaming sector.
