Vitali Klitschko as the fighter he is sensed this day was coming very soon as he sensed Putin’s intention five years ago when the Klitschko brothers had visited the Wembley stadium.

Klitschko said: ‘We have a saying in this country that lies have short legs. We have 70 nationalities here and never had any problems before. Now they talk about radicals who hate Russia. It’s not true. This is not a political game. It is simply aggression against Ukraine.’

‘I am very proud to see how patriotic people are. We’re not interested in how strong the Russian army is, we’re ready to fight.‘And we’re ready to die for our home country and for our families, because it’s our home, it’s our future and somebody wants to come to our home and steal our future from us.’ When asked how long he believes Kyiv can hold out for, Klitschko added: ‘I’m not ready to give you a clear answer. So long, so long time if we’re still alive.’

Putin is said to have a ’24 men kill list’ and both the Klitschko brothers are a part of that list, sources say. The Ukrainians have been fighting on the front lines and have been preparing for the upcoming battle against their enemies.
