0:55Now PlayingUndisputed world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk has been released by officials in Poland after he was arrested at Krakow airport.
Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said he was "outraged" by the detention of the Ukrainian citizen.
It is not clear why Usyk was arrested but Ukrainian men are forbidden from leaving Ukraine due to Kyiv's war with Russia.
The WBC, WBO and WBA champion, who also won gold at the 2012 London Olympics, has been a national hero aiding his country's war efforts.
