Why does Wladimir Klitschko have a USB stick sewed onto his robe for Anthony Joshua mega-fight?
WLADIMIR KLITSCHKO strutted to the ring with a USB stick sewn onto his robe with his prediction of what will happen in his super fight with Anthony Joshua.
The 41-year-old claims to have uploaded a video file on to a USB stick, which he will auction after the bout at Wembley Stadium.
The USB stick can been seen on his left arm
Klitschko has pulled the stunt with the intention of making money for his foundation and it was sewn into the left sleeve on his robe.
The Ukrainian held the stick up to onlookers at Sky’s headquarters in Isleworth in West London and explained his intentions to the waiting media.
He said: “On this stick, I recorded a video last week (and) I gave my prediction.
“Do not ask me, after the fight, what is on the stick.

“The only person who is going to be able to open it up and watch it is the person who buys this robe, with all the money going to the Klitschko Foundation.”
Meanwhile Joshua was far more low-key over his approach, but admitted he is keeping it simple with AJ the favourite under the Wembley arch.
He said: "I always try to strip things right back to basics. It is just me and a man trading blows and the best man will win.
"I am preparing myself not only for a physical battle but a mental battle with anyone.
"April 29 is another stepping stone towards greatness."
