Klitschko’s sparring partner reveals what happened when Wladimir sparred with Joshua

Ukrainian cruiserweight Serhiy Radchenko (5-0), who shared the room with current IBF heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua in Wladimir Klitschko’s training camp before Kubrat Pulev fight, said that Joshua is really good, intelligent and humble guy. “Anthony Joshua is very intelligent guy. Most of black guys in Klitschko camps, especially American guys, were extremely noisy. But Joshua, unlike them, is very polite, smart and sensible guy. And very humble, considering that he was already very popular then after winning Olympic gold medal” - said Radchenko. Serhiy also revealed what happened in the ring when Klitschko sparred Joshua. “Joshua looked pretty good in sparrings. He was probably the best and the most competitive Klitschko’s sparring partner in that camp, although it’s hard to say definitely because Wladimir boxes differently against different sparring partners, and some of the guys do not work at 100% in the sparring. And while Wladimir, who starts the sparring part of the camp right away from 12-rounds sparrings, always changes sparring partners after 2 rounds (or 3 at most), he once asked Joshua to spar 6 rounds. “So, all in all, I can tell you that Joshua looked pretty good in sparrings against Klitschko, but Wladimir was still clearly better. It looked like Joshua lacked confidence and experience then to make those sparring sessions really competitive. And, yes, he looked very decent in 6-round sparring, but I don't know how would he look if he had to go 12 against Wlad” - said Serhiy Radchenko.

black people didn't know they were noisy until Serhiy Radchenko (5-0) inadvertently mentioned it in 2017? wtf? I guess this guy just changed the world

Again, having a form of criticism from experience that gave him the conclusion that "the black americans are too loud. But Joshua is cilvil" isn't prejudicial because that's just observation on what he experienced in the training camp. RACE IS INVOLVED because it was the BLACK AMERICANS whom he observed that were loud, and differentiated Joshua. He could make a conclusion to any other group to what he had observed because that is his EXPERIENCE. Observation and conclusion based on what he seen from the individuals because of their attitude, not because of the color of their skin, and their skin color happens to be black. Klistchko didn't say "Black guys are loud, and I don't like them." That is racist because he made a claim based on their skin color but "The american black guys were loud when I trained with them in the training camp." isn't because he is just retelling what he observed. Too bad no one is stupid enough to fall for your selective omissions. Hey, you must have dropped this part, "Most of black guys in Klitschko camps". Your grasping in the dark trying to find a point so I'm done arguing this with you.

I don't think that translate to a racial prejudice. He was just saying what he is experienced with the black americans in the training camps, and differentiated Joshua from them. That's like saying "Most mexicans were a bit lazy in the training camp, but Mikey on the other hand, he was determined, focused." No racial prejudice unless you make one. If it wasn't racial, then why did he even bring race into it? WTF does race have anything to do with it and why is he bringing it up. Oh, and you thinking that Mexican thing would be socially acceptable in any form or fashion proves you are clueless.

Joshua has gone from from sparring klitchcko as a nobice pro to a world champion and in the process improve every fight....so based on that alone klitchcko is in a heap of trouble and i think klitchco is hoping that joshua has not improved that much in those 3 years....he has no idea what joshua has turned into now.....respect his bravery but its misguded bravery....joshua KO's klitchko inside 7 rounds

David Price floored Joshua in sparring, so I wouldn't analyze this too much.

Here's Malik Scott's take on the Joshua-Klitschko sparring https://youtu.be/qy0XL6Y8keE He said Anthony Joshua more than held his own in sparring Klitschko.
