Boxing champion Wladimir Klitschko interview with the Guardian

[@pulvi3329]

Nothing but respect to the klitschkos, both are great champions, honest and full of integrity! World class role models!

[@ericwilliams8273]

He always intrigue me as a fighter world champ. I always wonder in a country filled with big ruggard men and land what are the requirements to be nurtured if so. Or if someone takes an interest in you how if any succeed without good support in the thing they excel at. Eric williams

Class and respect two words that define the klitschko brothers.

[@jeanp716]

The brothers Klitshko gave to this exciting sports the category, class and respect that was lost years ago when others made of boxing a circus. Klitshkos have technic, professionalism and principles, they are intelligent and great example for the youth to follow, I am a big fan from Ecuador, girls also love boxing, Cheers

+Jeancito Prada he is gay and asshole for all people in the world

[@familyguy3313]

Some people lived in a time of Mike Tyson or Muhammad ali - But we lived in the time of The Klitschko's :)

[@davidcampos2615]

@Marc.mizran Wladimir was the lineal heavyweight champ as he ruled over the HW divison for about a decade. They'll very certainly be in the books.

[@morrylee1333]

Thoughtful interview, incisive questions. The Guardian respected his intelligence. Most interviewers think they are just talking to a boxer. Klitschko holds an earned doctor's degree. He is a civilized man. Philistines don't get this, hence their rants.

[@carolmooney822]

I think he can speak over 5 languages, highly intelligent man

[@actornwriter]

Wladimir is going to go down as one of the longest, and greatest heavyweight champions ever, for better or worse, he has always, in this last decade, found an effective way to win! And unlike Floyd, he doesn't need to practice his punching on women outside the ring either. Sometimes, the nice guy finishes first. . .

[@MrDaveTaylor]

true gentleman and an example of how to conduct yourself !!

[@arautus]

RIP Emanuel Steward, one of the greatest and smartest trainers of all time.

[@WAFFENSS69]

both great sportsmen who dont get the respect they deserve.

[@wendyjohnston3357]

This man is the full package. He was a great fighter, he is so intelligent, he is a gentleman and is so handsome. I have great respect for him and his brother.

[@josevalverde2263]

He brought decency ,culture,AND dignity inti the sport of boxing.

[@EsaulRuss]

Vladimir and Vitaliy are the true boxers of our time!

[@seanie505]

Pure class!

[@henrybyrd5402]

Has there ever been a fighter in any weight division who is was as eloquent in another language?

[@davidcampos2615]

Maybe Oscar? His english and Spanish are proficient but im pretty sure Wladimir knows 4 languages so...

[@jcarter3238]

Even when you have a decent grasp on a language, you have to focus when someone's talking and that's why he always has that face. And when you speak it, you have to go slow and contemplate before you speak. He's a hell of a lot more peppy speaking Russian and even German.

[@jalachkasascha]

+J Carter he cannot german or englisch or russian or ukrainian speaking ! i mean he speak good only russian and little bit englisch nothing more ! klowns klitschkos asshol...

[@jewellui]

He appears normal in other English interviews

[@dickysuratman3325]

I don't find it so surprising that this guy (and his brother for that matter) was a top athlete in his field, a champion, or that he is likable or pretty intelligent for a boxer. But to reasonably speak English and German as foreign languages...that is pretty impressive. Compare what you want with who you want, but show me another heavyweight champ that is reasonably fluent in 2 foreign languages...nah I didn't think so.

[@Geo408]

Class act.

[@phrankie_lewpehz]

You forgot to add The Ring Heavyweight Champion in the discription.

[@ericwilliams8273]

I think we get back to old motif the heart of a champion. Eric to one of the fighters I artistically enjoy watching especially what my imagination assumed.

[@comfortablynumbBG]

surprised at how intelligent he is...English, Ukrainian, and German? damn.

[@davidcampos2615]

He has a PhD. He is an educated man, boxer, and a gentleman. Class act and amazing heavyweight. Definitely going down in the books as an amazing competitor and heavyweight.

[@nobbytang]

The problem wth both klitchko brothers is their colour !!! .....they will never get the respect that their dominance deserved ...lve followed boxing for over 45 yrs and a peak Wladimir would of beaten a peak any other heavyweight in history ....Tyson , Smokin Joe , Ali even big George and Larry Holmes were all tooooooo small to match them ....even the performance against Joshua actually cements his legacy because as a old fighter he had AJ in that 6th round !!

[@prinzdodo]

Emotional.

[@alexmargolina9882]

Так хочется без проблем понимать речь своего соотечественника!!! Это моя МЕЧТА:)))

[@ericwilliams8273]

I remember in his losing he always appeared to be standing. A very strange way that I remember him don't know why I mostly admired his losing. Just a feeling was he ever a victim.

[@ognjengacic2204]

I mean just ask gentlemens on high seats

[@romcallis]

Why was he speaking German?

[@gyujiko]

Nice comemt wild

[@ognjengacic2204]

Mind control my red colonel friend , come on dude it is not possible🤩

[@edwinokello4690]

Gentlemen

[@WILDBILLNAZIO]

Lol@ who do you. Think wins? I don't want to talk about it. Hehehe interview really dropped his balls there.

[@bustarhymes6188]

THERE’S ONLY ONEEEE TYSON FURYYYY

[@TheWb1947]

Class and respect two words that define the klitschko brothers.
