However, the Ukrainian megastar is apparently not keen on splashing his massive earnings on swanky accessories. And Usyk proved it by buying a fake rolex on a beach in Turkey while preparing for the blockbuster rematch with the Gypsy King. He decided to go for the fake version as he knew no one would dare question the watch's inauthenticity after all the millions he's bagged throughout his career by beating fellow boxing stars, like Anthony Joshua.

Usyk told United44: "I was boasting a little and showed the cameraman my watch. It's a Chinese Rolex. "I was in Turkey for training and saw guys selling Rolexes on the beach. "I thought if I bought one, no one would guess that it was a fake. So I bought it for $100 (£80).".
