Former World Heavyweight Champion Vitali Klitschko has been re-elected as the Mayor of Kiev after second round runoff votes which he claimed 66.6% of the votes.
The Brother of the current Heavyweight Champion defeated former Paramilitary ultra-nationalist Boryslav Bereza to re-elected as Mayor.
Klitschko have been criticized for failing to deliver his promises of developing the ageing infrastructure constructed by the Soviet, but due to his closeness to the Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko and his popularity as a boxer, he was able to defeat Bereza.
