Kotelnik named the best boxer in the history of Ukraine

Dmitriy Kel Feb. 15, 2024, 5:15 a.m.

Former world champion in junior welterweight Andrey Kotelnik stated that he considers the ex-hegemon of the heavyweight division Vladimir Klitschko the best Ukrainian boxer of all time.

— The strongest Ukrainian boxer in history?

— Vladimir Klitschko is in first place. For the fact that he held the championship title for more than ten years (11 years, 8 months and 7 days - editor's note). I don't like his fighting style. But if you take boxing IQ, then this is Lomachenko.

Let us remember that Klitschko Jr. hung up his gloves in 2017, refusing a rematch with Anthony Joshua, who defeated him in April of that year. In total, the Ukrainian has 64 victories (54 by knockout) and 5 defeats.
