WLADIMIR Klitschko has turned to the best in Britain in a bid to retain his world heavyweight titles tonight.
Klitschko defends his IBF, WBA and WBO 'super' belts against Russian Alexander Povetkin in Moscow.
And, if the 37-year-old Germanbased Ukrainian wins, he will give a massive vote of thanks to fighters from this side of the Channel.
He has had intensive sparring with the likes of Michael Sprott and Sam Sexton, with Dillian Whyte also providing him with useful practice at his Austrian training base.
Wladimir's brother Vitali, the WBC champion, said: "My brother always seems to like British sparring partners."
