Wladimir Klitschko The Boxing Story

As an amateur , Klitschko represented Ukraine at the 1996 Olympics , winning a gold medal in the
super-heavyweight division. After turning professional later that year, he defeated Chris Byrd in 2000 to win the WBO heavyweight title. Klitschko's first reign as champion ended in an upset knockout loss to Corrie Sanders in 2003, which was followed by another knockout loss to
Lamon Brewster in 2004. It was during this time that Klitschko hired Emanuel Steward as his trainer, which began an eight-year partnership that lasted until Steward's death in 2012. In particular, Steward was credited with Klitschko's transition from an aggressive puncher to a more defensively-oriented boxer, much as he had done with Lennox Lewis in 1995 to 2003.

In 2006, Klitschko regained a portion of the world heavyweight championship after stopping Chris Byrd in a rematch to win the IBF and IBO titles. He won the WBO title for a second time by defeating then-unbeaten champion Sultan Ibragimov in 2008. Following his defeat of
Ruslan Chagaev in 2009, Klitschko was awarded the Ring and lineal titles, and lastly he won the WBA title from David Haye in 2011. Until his defeat by Tyson Fury in 2015, Klitschko was also recognized as champion by the
Transnational Boxing Rankings Board, while the WBA recognized him as one of its " Super champions", a distinction given to boxers who hold that title in addition to those by other sanctioning bodies in the same division.

Overall, he became the second longest reigning heavyweight champion of all time , and has the second most successful title defenses total of any heavyweight boxer with 23 , behind Joe Louis (25) and ahead of Larry Holmes (20) and
Muhammad Ali (19). On 14 September 2015,
BoxRec rated Klitschko as the number one fighter in the world, pound for pound . On 15 November 2014, he reached a career peak of number two on The Ring' s pound for pound list. Klitschko has fought in 28 heavyweight title fights, more than any heavyweight champion in the sport's history. He also holds the record of having defeated the most boxers with an undefeated record, at 12, and has also defeated ten current or former world champions throughout his career.

I would love to see Joshua win, but against klitschko? Let's wish him luck.

Is that not the brother to the klitschko that "decommissioned" our Samuel Peter?

Ps:
I am enormously pleased Joshua won.

In the voice of Ukwa, Now we can claim relationship.

Anthony is also our own,he is yoruba boy, his name is oluwafemi olaseni Joshua

A match I love to see, I really wish Anthony luck , its a 50/50 match, u really can't predict a winner...
Anthony is a fantastic young boxer, klitscko is a good boxer too laced with more experience and patience ..

What might be against Anthony is , he has never stayed 12rounds complete, his most is 7th, klitscko might have an egde there , as he is more graced with that long stay unlike our man ...

I do wish him luck...
