Wladimir Klitschko: I am not a boxer and not a fighter by nature

Former world champion Wladimir Klitschko called endurance a more important quality than talent and skill: “Time is a very important factor and the most valuable currency. And it, unfortunately, is limited. Each of us tried something new in life. Someone lowered his hands. Someone showed the face to the problem, someone his or her back. But, as Oleg Sentsov, who is in prison in Russia, said, cowardice is the worst sin in life. There are many examples of this,” said Wladimir.

“I am grateful to the sport for all that I have in my life. For features that I acquired. I am not a boxer or a fighter by nature. I have acquired these skills. My brother was born a fighter. Sport gave me the opportunity to travel. Helped me gain focus, flexibility, coordination and endurance. It is the most important quality. Endurance conquers talent and skill. These principles have helped me to be successful in sports for a long time,” Wladimir said.
