Ahead of the much talked about fight between Wladimir Klitschko and Anthony Joshua, which has been sold out...with over 90,000 boxing fans set to see the fight at the Wembley stadium  come Saturday...

...Klitschko while speaking to press, has taken a jibe at Joshua, saying the undefeated IBF Champion, will crumble like a cookie come Saturday.... “ I will make sure Anthony Joshua crumble like a cookie” counting on his experience to do the job on Joshua...The former Champion  said:

"Experience is something that you cannot buy in the shops,"

"You have to gain it through the years. It's an advantage.
"People could be great in the preparation and in great spirit, and I've seen that. But then they crumble like a cookie just a couple of seconds before the first bell, I've seen it.

On their mutual respect so far in the build up to the fight, Wladimir Klitschko said:

"I've seen their build-up, I've seen their strength, their determination and then before the first bell, they crumble like a cookie and totally lost their confidence.

"So it all depends on the on the character, but yes, I would say as a foundation, experience is very important."

"This fight sends out a great message to boxing," he said. "And that message is how this fight has been promoted.

"It's great and it hasn't been done this way for a long, long time.

"Try to fill out a stadium with 90,000 people and as I've heard, we could have been sold it three times.

"Yet we didn't do much and the positive thing is that both fighters, we didn't use the F word or hit each other at the press conference or throw tables, glasses, you name it, or wear T-shirts.

"I think the attitude and respect for each other is passing to the young man in the gym, training, who looks up to their champions and their idols.

"In such a violent sport as boxing, there has to be mutual respect and that's what we showed - and I'm proud of that."
