away. Something will go wrong, no matter how many contingency plans you make. Te real question is: how do you respond when it does?
For Yevhen Krazhan, it all comes down to mindset. “Te only constant is change,” he said. “At GR8 Tech, we’ve built a Bulletproof mentality - whatever happens, we keep moving forward. Mistakes may come, but just like in boxing, you can keep on fighting.” His takeaway: resilience and tomorrow’s opportunities matter more than yesterday’s wins.
Tat same idea applies in the ring. Ready to Fight’s Kyrylo Korobka explained that boxing is a highly unpredictable sport - one punch can change everything. Opponents switch stance, change tactics, or bring unexpected pressure, and the fighter must adapt without losing their foundation. “We don’t rely on a single strategy or game plan; we build several. Our team and analytics department work closely together to develop and execute these plans. Whether in sports or in business, strategy is everything.”
In both boxing and business, no one can see everything or make every decision alone. You need people around you with different perspectives and expertise. Tat’s what gives you confidence when plans change: knowing you don’t have to solve everything by yourself.
THE HARDEST FIGHT OF ALL WHAT CHAMPIONS WANT
Breaking through is one thing. Anyone can have a lucky moment or a single big win. But the ability to stay on top separates the good from the great. Defending your title, proving yourself again and again, is a completely different challenge.
“It takes much more to defend the title because all the opponents, all the young guys, want to take it from you,” Usyk said. “To defend it, you have to work even harder, five times harder. Te same is true in business: if you have a successful product, you must put in more effort to keep that success alive and protect your values.”
“If your team only tells you, ‘You’re the greatest, you’re the best,’ then you need to change your team. I respect the people who look me in the eye and tell me the truth. My wife can tell me I’m the greatest every day, but in business, you need honesty. Tat’s how you improve.”
Champions prepare, execute, and deliver with the same discipline every time, no matter the stakes. Te iGaming business holds under pressure when three things are in place: unwavering discipline, a team that stays steady when the hits come, and partners who remain in your corner for every round.
“From the first question to the final word, the theme was clear: how do you perform when everything is on the line? Te answer is performing as if nothing was on the line. As Oleksandr reminded us, champions don’t have two modes. Tey hold themselves to one standard, and they never let it drop. I think we can all agree on that,”
Kristy Gallacher concluded the panel discussion, leaving the audience with a reminder that true greatness comes from consistency, resilience, and living the champion’s mindset every day.

He described it as a discipline of humility and professionalism. “As soon as you start thinking you are the greatest, stand up—because in that moment, you are lying to yourself.”
ADVICE TO OPERATORS
To close the session, each speaker offered one piece of advice for businesses facing big challenges. u
Yevhen Krazhan: “Our industry is built on communication and
collaboration, and strategic alliances help defend your position long-term. So let’s keep the conversation going and continue building together.”
u Kyrylo Korobka: “Focus on discipline, innovation, and flexibility.” u
Oleksandr Usyk: “Be true to yourself and believe in yourself. If someone who hasn’t achieved anything tries to give you advice, don’t believe them - because you are the winner. If you were born, you’ve already won.”
A practical challenge from the heavyweight champion: “From Monday to Friday, wake up at 5:00 AM and spend 45 minutes doing something for your mindset. Read, exercise, pray - just don’t scroll through Instagram or your phone. Tose 45 minutes will change your life. If you stick to it, you’ll see massive improvement.”
