Klitschko has been unusually outspoken in the build-up to the unification contest, and has made sly digs to his once former protege – insisting he could be a CrossFit champion, and has nicknamed him ‘Mr. Billionaire.’
Like Joshua, ‘Dr. Steelhammer’ is an Olympic gold medallist having won at super-heavyweight in Atlanta 1996, and has won 64 out of 68 times, losing just a mere four times.
His last fight came against Tyson Fury back in November 2015 where he lost a unanimous decision – his first defeat in 11 years.
