More quotes by Wladimir Klitschko
I run, but boxing conditioning is different, so you have to get used to running in the ring. Boxing movements are very different. Swimming is one of the best because every single muscle is working. I swim a lot. I train very hard at things that mimic boxing. I have to do mostly sport-specific training, such as lots of sparring.
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
After Chernobyl, thousands and thousands of people, if not millions, were given a death penalty and had to pay the price, our father among them.
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
I've been doing this 26 years and have a lot of knowledge which will help me in the ring.
Wladimir Klitschko
Mental strength is really important because you either win or lose in your mind. And I'm not solely talking about sporting matches, boxing events - anything you do, you do it first with your mental strength. And you can actually train and develop it, and I am responsible for what I'm saying because I have experience with that.
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
I will teach you how to behave yourself in the ring.
Wladimir Klitschko
The man without a chin, no stamina, dead man, broken man, whatever. On your way to the top, you always get some criticism. Criticism is a great motivation. Failure is not an option to me.
Wladimir Klitschko
I'm trying to keep the face of my opponent more or less not damaged but eventually to execute the plan and knock him out.
Wladimir Klitschko
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!
Wladimir Klitschko
The man wannabe actually...a wannabe. David Haye's a wannabe.
Wladimir Klitschko
There are 49 guys that got bored to sleep on my record, so they got knocked out by it.
Wladimir Klitschko
I have decided to make a personal message to David Haye. I want him to fight me, to be a man. I wish there will be enough excitement, pressure and courage for David Haye to fight me.
Wladimir Klitschko
Sometimes it's boring because it takes time, but it's enjoyable. So beating up people for a living is really fun.
Wladimir Klitschko
I'm boring but effective.
Wladimir Klitschko
I'm going to give him a pizza face.

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
My height is an advantage, if I want to use it.
Wladimir Klitschko
If he goes down, he is to get up, and continue to fight, until I finish the process.
