Wladimir Klitschko last fought in 2017 against Anthony Joshua. After losing his last two fights, Klitschko decided to hang up the gloves. Although he retired, he is still one of the greatest heavyweights of all time.

He along with his brother Vitali Klitschko, held multiple world records and dominated their divisions for years together. It is this history that makes Wladimir Klitschko one of the most respected voices in the sport.

Klitschko took to his Twitter to reveal to his fans, the three most important aspects of being a good boxer. “You need three main things: heart, head and hands.” The legend himself had all of these qualities, which made him so dangerous in the ring.

The charismatic boxer had unparalleled power and a great chin. His size, speed, and strength were unrivaled in the division. Even in his last fight against ‘AJ’, at the age of 41, he took on a young aspiring boxer. Despite his lack of speed, he put up a fight against arguably one of the best heavyweights at the time.
