Is this the beginning of a bro-mance?
Action
hero and former muscleman Arnold Schwarzenegger and boxer-turned-actor
Wladimir Klitschko have swapped shirtless pictures of themselves on
Twitter.
The muscle
match-up began last week when Klitschko, 37, posted a photo on his
Twitter account showing him imitating Arnie's classic body-building pose
in front of a vintage poster of the star in his heyday.
Smiling broadly, the 6ft 6inch
Ukrainian flexes his perfect pecs for the tribute image.
Back at you: Arnold Schwarzenegger, 66, posted
this hunky picture of himself imitating 37-year-old
Wladimir Klitschko's
pose in a poster from Klitschko's boxing days in reply to a tribute pic
the sports star sent him
Pecs appeal: Klitschko smiled broadly as he
posed in front of a classic poster of the body-building legend, which he
sent to Arnie last week via Twitter
And it seems Arnie has been the gold-medal winning boxer's idol since
he was a child, because he added the message: 'Trying to catch u since
I'm 12.'
Arnie replied, 'Great shot! It’s fantastic to see one of my favorite champions nailing my pose.'
Adding 'Right back at you,' he shot back a topless pic of himself
doing a Klitschko impression in front of one of the boxer's old fight
posters.
The 66-year-old star, sporting greying designer stubble, proved he's
still well built, clasping his huge arms across his hairy chest.
Hero worship: Klitschko has been trying to emulate Arnie's incredible physique since he was a child
Klitschko is also known for his romance with actress Hayden Panettiere, 23.
The pair dated from 2009 to 2011 before parting ways. They reunited
in January but have yet to confirm reports that they are engaged after
the Nashville star was pictured flashing a huge rock on her left hand
wedding finger at LAX airport in August.
Meanwhile, Klitschko continues to follow in the footsteps of his
hero, Arnie. The hunk, who gave up boxing to move to Los Angeles to try
his hand at
acting, has appeared in four pics, including Ocean's Eleven in 2001.
His latest movie, Pain&Gain, stars Mark Wahlberg and Dwayne
Johnson as bodybuilders caught in a kidnapping scheme that goes wrong.
It was released in April.
Love knot: Klitschko and g.f. Hayden Panettiere
have been spotted around town together frequently since they reunited in
January after an 18-month split, but they have yet to confirm reports
that they are engaged
