Ukrainian Boxing Legend Wladimir Klitschko Calls Out Joe Rogan For Pushing ‘Russian Propaganda’ After Fiery ‘F*ck’ Biden Rant

Ukrainian boxing legend Wladimir Klitschko called out podcaster Joe Rogan for pushing “Russian propaganda” by accusing U.S. and Ukrainian leaders of risking “World War III” after President Joe Biden authorized Ukraine’s use of long-range American missiles in its war against Russia.

During a recent episode of the Joe Rogan Experience, Rogan condemned the escalating U.S. involvement in the war.

“[Ukrainian leader Volodymyr] Zelensky says [Russian leader Vldaimir] Putin is terrified. Fuck you, man. Fuck you, people. You people are about to start World War III,” Rogan said. “Maybe that would be a good thing we would like to avoid from a dying former president.”

Klitschko, a former heavyweight champion and a vocal advocate for Ukraine amid Russia’s ongoing invasion, responded directly with a video posted to X.

The former boxer replied: “You talk about these American weapons being sent to Ukraine, which you believe will lead to the Third World War. So, let me tell you that you’re repeating Russian propaganda – Putin’s Russia is in trouble. So they want to scare you and people like you. His war was supposed to last three days; it has lasted three years thanks to the heroism and sacrifice of us Ukrainians.”

He continued: “So you’re using the only weapon that Putin really intends to use: propaganda and this weapon really weakens our democracies. Putin’s Russia wants to destroy Ukraine quietly; they want America to stay quiet – not great. A great America is not an America that abandons countries that defend freedom with their lives.”

Klitschko then offered to appear on Rogan’s podcast to debate the issue “like free men.”

Rogan, who endorsed President-elect Donald Trump in the 2024 election, echoed the critique shared by other MAGA figures like Donald Trump Jr., who slammed Biden’s missile authorization as a deliberate escalation of tensions.
