Vitali Klitschko believes it would be a mistake to write off the challenger for his WBC heavyweight championship - Manuel Charr.
The 41-year-old is once again odds on to defend his title against the unfancied Charr, who is undefeated but hasn't fought anyone with the quality Klitschko possess.
The 27-year-old is currently seventh in the heavyweight rankings but is expected to pose no challenge to Klitschko when the two step in the ring in Moscow on Saturday night.
However, the defending champion has insisted he is expecting Charr to cause him a few problems as he looks to win what could be his last fight before the 41-year-old pursues a career in politics.
"I know that some people are not taking Charr seriously, considering him a boxer without a big-sounding name and serious experience," Klitschko said.
"However, he represents the new generation of heavyweight boxers."
