46-year-old Klitschko Jr. has finally been inducted into the Boxing Hall of Fame. Interesting that they added him to this list back in 2021. However, due to the pandemic, this ceremony was postponed, it honored 36 boxers at once, who were included in the Hall over the past three years..

Klitschko did not attend the official ceremony, but he still spoke remotely. In his Instagram, he posted a video message from Kyiv. He thanked the organizers for the difference, and once again reminded the world about the crimes of the Russian army.

" I remember when I started my boxing journey at 14, I used it as a travel tool at a very young age.. I never dreamed that I would go this far in this sport, the more that I will be among all the respected champions in the International Boxing Hall of Fame, it's wonderful, it's a great honor.

Unfortunately, Russian aggression and the war in my homeland did not allow me to join you in this ceremony in person.. This war has changed not only me, but the whole world. I also remember how boxing changed my life. He made me a better person. Even though it was a little intimidating in the beginning, I started enjoying it later on..

Glad to address all of you. Well. to almost everyone. There is one person for whom I have an important question. One person violated Ukrainian law by entering the occupied Crimean peninsula through Russia.

This man's name is Roy Jones. So Roy, which side are you on On the side of the aggressor or the side of those who defend their right to life? I respect you as a fighter, but I have serious questions about your moral orientation,"

It should be noted that in September 2015, Roy Jones, who was the world champion in five weight categories, received Russian citizenship, and also met with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin and visited the temporarily occupied Crimea.

In the professional ring, Vladimir had 69 fights, won 64 victories (54 ahead of schedule) and suffered 5 defeats. He held the WBO, IBF, IBO and WBA heavyweight championship belts..

In 2017, Klitschko Jr. ended his career after being knocked out by Anthony Joshua.;

Wladimir Klitschko is the second Ukrainian boxer whose name was included in the Hall of Fame. The first was his brother Vitali Klitschko, who entered the class in 2018.
