Vitali Klitschko, a world famous Ukrainian sporting hero, is making a very good fist of his attempt at politics.
Udar, the political party led by the reigning world heavyweight champion boxer, has surprised many observers by catapulting to second place in opinion polls before Ukraine’s parliamentary election on 28 October.
This is not Klitschko’s first election: He ran twice, unsuccessfully, for mayor of Kyiv.
