Mega Heavyweight Fight to Take Place – Klitschko vs. Haye
Fight is scheduled to take place on July 2nd at the new, 55,000 seat, Hamburg Imtech Arena in Berlin, Germany, which is the home arena for the German Bundesligasoccer
club Hamburg SV. It’s expected to air on more than 150 TV stations around the world, either live or delayed.

| Wladimir Klitschko |
Klitschko(35 years old, 55-3, with 49 knockouts) and Haye (30 years old, 25-1 and 23 Knockouts) have a bit of a feud going on, so this fight should be interesting.
Klitschko is happy that he’ll finally be able to meet Haye in the ring, and declares that his abdominal injury has healed and won’t get in the way of his training.

| David Haye |
Haye has always said he’d knock out Wladimir Klitschko, and then his brother Vitali to end his boxing career at a high point. Hayes also declares that Klitschko has “only fought wimps and cowards” and that he’ll show him what it’s like to fight a “real champion”. Hope he hasn’t stuck his foot in his mouth…. I guess we’ll find out on July 2nd, if all goes as planned.
In other boxing news…
- Bantamweight title-holder Joseph Agbeko is out due to sciatica (set of symptoms cause by injury / irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve area.) and therefore is unable to defend his title against Abner Mares. It’s hoped that the bout will be re-scheduled.
- Instead of the Agbeko-Mares fight, Perez (20-1-1, 14 Knockouts) and Darchinyan (35-3-1, 27 Knockouts) will take center stage.
