There are matches, which are never to be forgotten and there are boxing icons, who are going to stay with us for eternity.

Another week, another Klitschko brother. Last time I wrote about Vladimir, now I am going to write about Vitali. He also had an amazing professional career. He won the WBC heavyweight world title and successfully defended it many times. He had impressive knockout power, 91% of his winning came by KOs or TKOs.

Here are three interesting facts about the man, who is the mayor of Kyiv nowadays:

1. Vitali holds an impressive record, the record for the most time spent in world title bouts as a heavyweight boxer.
2. He had a strong chin; he was never knockedout during his professional career.
3. He received various awards and recognition thanks to his results as a boxer and his charity work.
