    Comments Thread For: Klitschko: I’ll Keep Fighting For As Long As I Can

    Few people, if anyone, would’ve predicted in 2003 and 2004 that Wladimir Klitschko would still be fighting in 2015 and would be back on top of the sport and dominating all who challenge him.

    He is 39 years old now, more than a decade removed from deflating stoppage losses to Corrie Sanders and Lamon Brewster, and has no immediate plans for retiring.

    “I’ve learned to make decisions on how long I go to fight. It’s going from fight to fight. As long as I’m healthy, and as long as I have great motivation, which I, knock on wood, do have, I will continue,” Klitschko said after scoring a unanimous decision over the previously undefeated Bryant Jennings on Saturday night at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

    Fury and Wilder better not duck Wlad.


    Those two are next, but I have a feeling BOTH of them will duck Wlad. That's what it's looking like is likely to happen, at the moment... based on recent events.

        Jennings did well, but Wlad still won all but one round as far as I'm concerned. Long live the king.

            And rightully so. Wlad was several years deep into his title reign when Joshua turned pro.

              Joshua could be the heir to Vladimir's throne.

                Think they cut off some of the quote. He said he'll fight as long as he can hold a clean on opponents with no issues

                  The limited jab and grab wrestler would have never made it in a tougher era. Jennings is a full time janitor who only picked up boxing 5 years ago and he arguably won 4-5 rounds.

                    Wlad looked really good against a game fighter Saturday. I am no defender of Wlad's performance against Povetkin, but Jennings was the one who initiated much of the clinching, and when he wasnt he spent the fight trying to not be KOd so I don't see how this is on Wlad.

                    Regardless, it was a good fight Saturday, do you guys complaining even watch the fights anymore?
