More quotes by Wladimir Klitschko
In the old days, when Muhammad Ali was fighting Ken Norton, Joe Frazier and George Foreman, there was a lot of excitement in the heavyweight division, I have to admit it.
Wladimir Klitschko
[Anthony Joshua] is the best man in the division and I believe this excitement speaks for itself. This is what the fans want and this fight must happen.
Wladimir Klitschko
It is incredibly difficult to adjust to such a little fighter. Mormeck is similar to Mike Tyson, he is just a little still faster.
Wladimir Klitschko
The challenge for me is his size because, for the first time in my career, I'll be meeting an opponent who is taller than me and has a longer reach.
Wladimir Klitschko
I've been doing this 26 years and have a lot of knowledge which will help me in the ring.
Wladimir Klitschko
Who's gonna win between two brothers? The Klitschko mother's gonna win because she said it won't happen.
Wladimir Klitschko
My goal is not getting hit and to knock the other guy out. Some people might complain because they want to see boxers beat up on each other, but you cannot last long in professional boxing if you take a lot of punches.
Wladimir Klitschko
Radiation doesn't recognize borders. A meltdown in Japan or India, say, is a danger to the whole world. Wind circulates the radiation everywhere. Water quality is affected. We all eat the same fish. We use products from all over the world - if something is contaminated, it will cause harm.
Wladimir Klitschko
That's the most terrible mistake you can make: to relax. It's difficult to become a champion, but it's more difficult to maintain it for many years because you're getting too comfortable.
Wladimir Klitschko
I think a fight with David Haye, even if he is not American, is going to give positive vibes about the heavyweight division for the American fans and fans worldwide.
Wladimir Klitschko
You have to learn the opponent psychologically inside out and mental strength is one of the important makers. You're either gonna break it or make it.
Wladimir Klitschko
I think that there's only one nationality and one language in the sport, and you call it performance.
Wladimir Klitschko
I think that boxing is actually not as dangerous as the politics. In boxing, you're gonna get a bloody nose or a black eye. In politics you can obviously get either dioxin in the food or bullet in the head.
Wladimir Klitschko
If he goes down, he is to get up, and continue to fight, until I finish the process.
Wladimir Klitschko
Politics is comparable to boxing. The only thing is that in politics there are basically no rules. In boxing, you can get a black eye, but in politics you can get poison in your food or a bullet in the head. It's definitely rougher and tougher than other sports.
Wladimir Klitschko
I prepare for my fights to well that I don't wanna give a chance to my opponent to crash my 'glass chin' as they say, so I'm knocking them in the way that I like.
Wladimir Klitschko
I always train and prepare with highest concentration and focus on my next opponent. To me, it does not matter what his name is.
Wladimir Klitschko
The first thing I learned in boxing is to not get hit. That's the art of boxing. Execute your opponent without getting hit. In sports school we were putting our hands behind our backs and having to defend ourselves with our shoulders, by rolling, by moving round the ring, moving out feet.
Wladimir Klitschko
I'm going to give him a pizza face.
Wladimir Klitschko
My height is an advantage, if I want to use it.
