Why Oleksandr Usyk's birthplace (Siferopol, Crimea) is said to be Russia?

Crimea is internationally recognized as part of Ukraina, and it was illegally annexed by Russia.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_status_of_Crimea

The political status of the Crimea is the subject of a political and territorial dispute between Ukraine and Russia. Ukraine and the majority of the international community consider both Crimea and Sevastopol as administrative divisions of Ukraine, whereas Russia and some other countries considers both to be under a Russian federal district.

See also UN resolution on this subject - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nat ... ion_68/262

[klitoris]

Crimea is disputed territory.

Claiming it as Russian territory is incorrect.

Country name should at the least be removed from his birthplace and kept as Simferopol, Crimea.

Usyk however stated many times that he is from Simferopol, UKRAINE

If you want me to provide numerous links where he stated this I can, however I am sure the mods know about this, but are consistently keeping a political agenda here.

Another boxer that has a wrong birth place is Sergiy Derevyanchenko who is also from Feodosia, Crimea, UKRAINE
