Usyk

Absolute world boxing champion Oleksandr Usyk defeated Tyson Fury in a rematch and raised a unique saber of Hetman Ivan Mazepa above his head. This gesture not only became a symbol of triumph, but also reminded the world of the Ukrainian people's struggle for freedom, which has been going on for centuries. The seventeenth-century saber is a unique artifact, an example of Ukrainian weaponry, shaped in part by the influence of Muslim Eastern culture. Hetman Ivan Mazepa presented the saber to Osavul Savych for his good service. Today it is kept in the Chernihiv Regional Historical Museum named after Tarnovsky.
