Battle of the Titans: Vladyslav Klymchuk vs Oleksandr Mamontov

At the Palace of Sports in Kyiv, history was made. Two Ukrainian veterans — Vladyslav “Klym” Klymchuk and Oleksandr “Mamont” Mamontov — stepped into the boxing ring not just as opponents, but as symbols of strength and resilience.

The event, part of the Ukrainian Veterans’ Boxing League, brought together athletes who continue to fight — not on the battlefield, but within themselves. Both men lost limbs during the war, yet stood tall on Levitate prosthetics, showing the world that the human spirit knows no limits.

For Oleksandr, a veteran of the special unit Dozor who lost his leg to a landmine in 2024, boxing became a way to rebuild both body and purpose. For Vladyslav, a member of the Azov Brigade, training and movement became tools of recovery, a daily discipline that helped him regain control and confidence.

When the bell rang, it wasn’t just about punches or points. It was about defiance, courage, and brotherhood. Round after round, the crowd witnessed two men pushing past every boundary that once tried to hold them back.

In the end, Vladyslav’s hand was raised in victory, but the moment belonged to both fighters — a shared triumph of spirit over circumstance.

At Levitate, we’re proud to play a small part in stories like these — stories that remind us why we do what we do: to help people move freely, chase their goals, and redefine what’s possible.
