Comments Thread For: Klitschko Admits He Was Very Close To Taking Joshua Rematch

[HIGHNESS]

His brother was the GOAT Heavyweight. Never really lost a fight and never was dropped. His two losses were from freak occurrences - Byrd and Lennox wanted no parts of a rematch with him. Most consistent Heavyweight ever.

Yea I agree with you. Definitely top 5 Heavyweight of all time. Sucks about those losses, with injuries while he was winning both fights.

im glad he thought otherwise. he is done.

I think, after a few months out of the limelight, this is Wladimir Klitschko's ego talking. He's past it and came a cropper when facing a live dog. The days of having a wishy-washy division leader from Borat's hometown are over.

Probably thought in the back of his mind that he might get knocked out again, you just dont play with the power that AJ brings
If he was 32 no doubt he would take the rematch, but at 40 hes done at this point

I think the rematch would have had same outcome. Wlad at this stage in his life it was the best move to bow out gracefully.

Golovkin is the division leader from Borat's homeland. Klitschko is from Ukraine completely different place unless you're saying usyks kazakh also? I am feel, I am very feel.

Until Meldonium came into existence as an Eastern Euro performance enhancing drug, bros. like the Klitschko’s had it easy..

Both Klitschko’s would be put on notice like Povetkin when fighting a real deal American
