More quotes by Wladimir Klitschko
It's such a gift in my life to be able to compete - to have the health.
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.

I have a Ph.D. in philosophy and sports science. At 14, I went through this really tough Soviet training system. A lot of my roommates got psychologically broken or physically injured. Either you came through, or you were out. I made my Ph.D. work in the field of young athletes aged 14-19 because at this age any human is changing.

I'm playing right now a role, and the role is called the 'Heavyweight Champion of the World.' And it takes all of the time. And I love this role, and it takes a lot of attention for me for the sport, and I just don't want to lose the title, so that's why I have to stay focused and not become an actor.

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
In Soviet times the border was closed so we couldn't get out of the country, and I had been reading Robinson Crusoe. I wanted to see the ocean, I wanted to see boats, I wanted to see black people, because we didn't have that in the Soviet Union. I was all excited by that stuff.
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
[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
If I am 100% prepared for the fight, my opponent has no chance to win the fight. I am saying what I mean: He has a 0% chance to win the fight. There is going to be no luck involved there is going to be nothing else to stop me from winning the fight.
Wladimir Klitschko
I think that there's only one nationality and one language in the sport, and you call it performance.
Wladimir Klitschko
You lose or you win the fight - and anything in life - in your mind. I can look at how the person walks, how he speaks, his expressions. It's a wisdom. Eyes are the mirror of the soul. So you can read a lot.
Wladimir Klitschko
Only younger brothers will understand me. We're following in the footsteps of older brothers. You are looking up to your brother. You want to do the same things. You want to do as good as he and do it even better.
Wladimir Klitschko
On your way to the top, you always get some chriticism. Criticism is a great motivation.
Wladimir Klitschko
You can take your fitness seriously, but not yourself. That's the most difficult part: not to relax. That's the most difficult challenge I'm facing every fight.
Wladimir Klitschko
I don't like to get hit, who likes it? I probably wouldn't do this sport if I was getting hit that much.
