According to IZ, Wladimir Klitschko is preparing to return to the professional ring – this is not only a sensation, but also a bold challenge to the very limits of human capabilities. At 48 years old, Wladimir has a chance to become the oldest world champion in boxing history, surpassing the achievements of George Foreman.
According to his promoter Tom Loeffler, Klitschko is ready to return for the title. “Wladimir said that he will fight for the title and break George Foreman's record. He is already 48, and in March he will be 49 years old.
If anyone is capable of such an achievement, it's him, Loeffler said.
Boxing legend Wladimir Klitschko's promoter – Tom Loeffler
Let me remind you that Foreman's record has remained unsurpassed since 1994. Then, at the age of 45, George sensationally defeated Michael Moorer. But Klitschko is not just an athlete, but a true strategist in the ring. His experience, physical training and discipline may be the key to a new historic achievement.
Klitschko retired from the sport in 2017 after his fight with Anthony Joshua, but his legacy in the boxing world is still huge. His career includes 64 wins (53 knockouts) with five losses. Wladimir is a symbol of technical boxing, which is based on the accuracy of blows, distance control and impressive physical form.
Today's heavyweight division is one of the strongest in recent years. Current champions such as Oleksandr Usyk, Tyson Fury, and contenders Daniel Dubois and Joseph Parker demonstrate a high level of boxing. Wladimir already has experience fighting the best, but his return could be a challenge even for himself.
The promoter hinted at potential opponents: “Wladimir has an open path to fight Fury. It will be a battle of the titans that every fan would like to see”.
Klitschko's return could be the event of the year in the world of boxing. It could not only attract the attention of millions of fans, but also inspire many athletes to fight against their own limits. If he really enters the ring, the world will witness one of the greatest comebacks in sports.
