Written by Black Hot Fire Network on December 1, 2022
One of Ukraine's most decorated Olympians is auctioning his medals two golds and a bronze in hopes of raising a six-figure donation to contribute to the war effort in his native land.
"My Olympic medals won't matter if Ukraine can't stand for this fight for freedom and independence," two-time canoe champion Yuri Cheban told The Associated Press in an email exchange Wednesday.
Cheban won Olympic gold in the 200 meters . . .
