    Looks like WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko will likely defend against mandatory challenger Juan Carlos Gomez on March 21, possibly in Stuttgart, Germany.a few websites reporting this.

    quote:"The two sides are hoping to finalize the agreement as soon as today. Reportedly the Klitschkos’ initial offer of $1.2 million has been upped to $1.6 million."

    Because Gomez isnt a huge name world wide and its a HW fight for a small portion of the collective championship.
