“I want to break a record”
The boxing legend explained that George Foreman’s record would spur him on. “That motivates me to get up every day and do sport. Everyone has their own motivation,” said Klitschko. In 1994, at the proud age of 45 years, 9 months and 25 days, Foreman had beaten Michael Moorer, who was 18 years his junior, and was once again crowned world champion.
The 46-year-old Klitschko could still break this age record. “I don’t want to break a jaw, I want to break a record. I said that before the war. And during the war it’s about peace in Ukraine and when peace comes, we’ll talk about it again,” Klitschko explained .
