More quotes by Wladimir Klitschko

Wladimir Klitschko
I'm boring but effective.
Wladimir Klitschko
The man wannabe actually...a wannabe. David Haye's a wannabe.
Wladimir Klitschko
On your way to the top, you always get some chriticism. Criticism is a great motivation.
Wladimir Klitschko
If he goes down, he is to get up, and continue to fight, until I finish the process.
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
From nothing to everything is a long way, from everything to nothing is one stop.
Wladimir Klitschko
I've fought everybody without ducking anyone. I have beaten 10 undefeated guys, and I never was comparing myself to the greatest in the sport. I was not thinking of breaking any records. I'm just enjoying my time in boxing.
Wladimir Klitschko
There's certain things that you cannot cross, no matter who you are, what you're doing or where you're coming from.

I would compare it to an actor. I drive myself into the character that later on is in the ring.
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
All of my fights are planned. I study my opponents from A to Z. How he walks, how he looks, how he speaks, gestures of the human body, which is a certain language that provides you lots of information if you have the ability to read it.
Wladimir Klitschko
Earlier in my career, I never thought of boxing as a chess game, but I confirm that they are, in fact, very similar. You can plan your fights and strategy just like you would in chess.
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
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 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
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
I will teach you how to behave yourself in the ring.
Wladimir Klitschko
My father told and taught me that the word, can hit harder than the fist.
