10. W RTD 9 Ruslan Chagaev [2009]
THE unbeaten Chagaev may not have been considered the best opponent Klitschko would have faced, but he was certainly one of the top contenders available and a sellout crowd of 61,000 packed into the Veltins Arena to watch it – Germany’s highest boxing attendance since Max Schmeling v Adolf Heuser in 1939.
Klitschko dropped Chagaev in the second and won virtually every round on every scorecard before the fight was eventually stopped.
