Klitschko hitting weights for Joshua bout
Wladimir Klitschko (64-4, 53 KOs) has been lifting a lot of weights in getting ready for his fight this month against IBF heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (18-0, 18 KOs) on April 29 at Wembley Stadium in London, England. Wladimir usually takes it easy on the weights, but he appears to be really bulking up for this fight knowing that he’s got to deal with the 250 pound Joshua.
It’s wise for Wladimir to be focusing on his muscles, because the last thing he needs is to be the weaker guy inside the ring on the night. Joshua, 6’6”, is usually the stronger guy in his fights. He’s not a quick fighter. He’s just bigger than his opponents, and he uses his size to get the better of them.
