Maksym Galinichev, a Ukrainian fighter who won a silver medal at the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics, was eliminated while serving in the Luhansk area throughout Russia’s continuous intrusion of Ukraine. The 22-year-old apparently declined to take part in the European Boxing Confederation Men’s European Boxing Championships in 2015 in order to sign up with Ukraine’s militaries. Galinichev’s death marks the most recent in a series of Ukrainian professional athletes eliminated because Russia released the intrusion in February 2022. The Boxing Federation of Ukraine has actually disallowed its professional athletes from completing in competitions including Russian and Belarusian professional athletes in current months, while the International Olympic Committee is thinking about readmitting Russian and Belarusian professional athletes to worldwide competitors as neutral.
