More quotes by 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.
Wladimir Klitschko
Aggression means emotions. Emotions means you’re gonna get off your plan and that means you’ll lose the fight.
Wladimir Klitschko
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.
Wladimir Klitschko
On your way to the top, you always get some chriticism. Criticism is a great motivation.
Wladimir Klitschko
I respect the IBF obligation to fight Povetkin, but I would like the exception to fight David Haye. That is the only title the Klitschkos don't have. We have them all except the WBA, which is why Haye is such an interesting cookie for me to eat.
Wladimir Klitschko
I would compare it to an actor. I drive myself into the character that later on is in the ring.

He [Tyson Fury] will be difficult opponent to adjust to, because of his style of fighting and physical conditions. Fans will certainly not be bored.
Wladimir Klitschko
I think we have tremendous media covering the sport of boxing, even if boxing is a little bit lost in popularity with MMA sports. And I think that with the show 'Lights Out' it's going to get more attention to the sport, and it's going to put more attention to the problems that athletes in general have.
Wladimir Klitschko
I've been doing this 26 years and have a lot of knowledge which will help me in the ring.
Wladimir Klitschko
You can train your mental strength just like you train your body. If your body looks fit or ripped, it looks strong, and you can flex your muscles. So, physically, you have a certain strength. Mentally, it's the same thing. You can train your psychological strength.
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
There are 49 guys that got bored to sleep on my record, so they got knocked out by it.
Wladimir Klitschko
I think that there's only one nationality and one language in the sport, and you call it performance.
Wladimir Klitschko
The whole key is to be honest with yourself, find the weak spots, work on it, get it done.
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
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 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
It's not my place to compare myself to greats like Tyson, Frazier or men like that. But I would look at a fighter like Evander Holyfield. He's a great heavyweight who worked his way up through the weight classes to become champion and had to beat bigger men along the way.
Wladimir Klitschko
From nothing to everything is a long way, from everything to nothing is one stop.
Wladimir Klitschko
There is no money in this world that will make us fight.
