More quotes by Wladimir Klitschko
I've been many times to Dubai and the U.A.E., and I have friends that live there. It would be exciting to stage world heavyweight championship fights in the Arab world. It's something Muhammad Ali achieved when he fought in Zaire or the Philippines. It's absolutely exciting to fight in countries where you have never fought.

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.

I never fought in my life outside of a ring.
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
Aggression means emotions. Emotions means you’re gonna get off your plan and that means you’ll lose the fight.

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
Defeat will help you. I've been there and done that. I shook it off and came back stronger. It's nothing to be scared about.

I'm quite shocked by the recent British media stories about an alleged brawl between myself and Dereck Chisora. I am a professional prize fighter and let my fists do the talking only inside the ring. I don't want to comment on Chisora's psychological issues.
Wladimir Klitschko
I train six days a week for four to five hours a day. I like to keep the same schedule when I'm in camp for every fight.
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
I'm going to give him a pizza face.
Wladimir Klitschko
Who's gonna win between two brothers? The Klitschko mother's gonna win because she said it won't happen.

I learned in my Ph.D. the discipline I needed to be successful. Most boxers are not that disciplined. They have talent, but the self-organization - the ability to schedule yourself and your priorities - is lacking. My studies were about the control of training on both the psychological and the physical side.

There are 49 guys that got bored to sleep on my record, so they got knocked out by it.

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
When you're successful for so many years, the scariest part is that you're getting too comfortable because you've had so much success.

I know he's retired, but I'm a big fan of Shaquille O'Neal, his game and his personality. I have a pair of his shoes in my office. You see the size of his shoe and think, 'This is not real, this couldn't belong to a human being.' But he is human!

I would say that Roger Federer is pretty amazing. And Manny Pacquiao - he's such a tiny, little lightweight guy, but the way he fights makes people so excited.
Wladimir Klitschko
The man wannabe actually...a wannabe. David Haye's a wannabe.
Wladimir Klitschko
Sometimes it's boring because it takes time, but it's enjoyable. So beating up people for a living is really fun.
