Klitschko's brilliant 'Mount Everest' comparison
- 7 years ago
Awesome footage of Wladimir Klitschko comparing himself to Mount Everest ahead of his heavyweight bout with Anthony Joshua at Wembley on April 29.
The video, filmed on April 6, shows the Ukrainian "warning" his upcoming opponent that he'll be facing the boxing equivalent of the world's highest peak when they meet at the end of the month.
The Ukrainian's only defeat in 11 years came against Joshua's compatriot Tyson Fury, a vastly different fighter.
In the interview, though, Klitschko dismisses suggestions he is in decline, comparing his exceptional longevity with Everest, and the scale of the task Joshua has to overcome.
