Richard Towers :happy http://www.thestar.co.uk/sport/boxi...fighter-richard-towers-was-his-idol-1-5195097
In context would be nice...so here you go: “Wladimir said to me that if I ever need sparring for when it comes to fighting then he would be there for me. He talked about family and things like that. I spent two or three hours a day with him and he asked me: ‘Have you got kids?’ I said yeah, I’ve got a four year old and a baby on the way in February. He said to me, ‘You’re my idol’. I asked what do you mean by that? And he replied, ‘You are everything I aspire to be. You’ve got passion and hunger in your body, in your eyes, in everything you do and it’s all for a purpose. My purpose is to win, to be greater than the great. Yours is to feed your family. “That is a far bigger goal than what I’ve got. You’re my idol.’ And I was like, flipping heck!” What a great compliment....Wlad is a class act, how anyone can hate him is beyond me. If only he were out getting in street fights, throwing his money away in the clubs, and beating women...then he'd be more popular with a certain crowd. :-(
"If only he were out getting in street fights, throwing his money away in the clubs, and beating women" Probably just keeps that stuff on the down low : )
Its safe to say that Richard Towers won't really challenge the big boys domestically or World Wide...? With this type of attitude. I could not help but notice how..? He seems to be in total aur of Wladimr Kiltschko, he seems to be taking it abit too far. Beyond normal behaviour for somebody who wants to be the best. I am sure David Haye admired allot of fighters, but i bet you he could switch his Personality/Mindset in a instant. If you want to win or get the best out of yourself. You have to be ruthless, you have to be extremely selfish! extremely brutal. David Haye did it up against Audley Harrison..? What i am trying to emphasise, is how David Haye turned on somebody who was a mentor and friend to him, a inspiration as a young fighter/man. And if he had to, i personally believe..? he would do it to any of these other fighters being all matey matey with him. David Price Carl Froch Whoever! If they challenged him..? Listen its personal, life is personal. Note: I just feel like Richard Towers has to stop praising these other guys, and just think about himself.
can towers be backed up. this article is only his words. no one else is saying that he took all this punishment though he does sound and look a real hard case
