    WBO/IBF/IBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (52-3, 46 KOs) will next fight against former WBC/WBA/WBO cruiserweight champion David Haye (22-1, 22 KOs). Representatives of Klitschko have informed Fightnews.com that Klitschko-Haye will take place on June 20th in Germany. The contract is expected to be signed in the next few days.

    Previously it was planned to stage the Klitschko-Haye fight in London at Stamford Bridge Stadium, which is home to Chelsea Football Club.

    Expect the contract to be signed????

    What is the holdup? How many reports will we read where they keep saying it is about to be signed?

    I am quite neutral on the "top dogs" of the HW's, but hell yeah, this is huge and equally awesome. I equally enjoy watching Haye and both Klit bros, but not to sound negative to Wlad, I think it would really get some excitement going for the Big Guys if Haye were to pull this out. Then get a round robin of sorts with Haye being pin-balled back and forth between the K's. Could get really exciting. While I see it as possibility, the worst case scenario would be for Wlad to just blow Haye out, because then what? You know?

    This is gonna get the Heavies on everybodies talk list again, and maybe the general public will "get up" for this too. Just glad to see some HW action where 3 actually in shape fighters have a good chance to really rev up the division. Best of luck to all 3 (though I know Vit isn't involved yet, he COULD be if Haye pulls this off.).

    Yes, at least it may be getting more likely.

    I won't believe its a done deal till I see a press announcement saying its on in absolute terms.

    :lol: I thought he's gonna knock him out? I mean if you get outclassed for 12 rounds you lose, no bias.

    These are championships on the line.

    The first big punch Vlad lands will put Haye down. This will have some action, but Haye will go down.
