    As Fightnews.com previously reported, WBC heavyweight champion “Dr. Ironfist” Vitali Klitschko (37-2, 36 KOs) will conduct his next fight against former WBC/WBA/WBO cruiserweight champion David Haye (22-1, 21 KOs) on September 12 in Germany. In August Vitali leaves for training camp in Austria in preparation to the fight. Looks like Klitschko-Haye will be televised on HBO in the United States and BBC in Great Britain. Haye’s fights were previously broadcast by troubled Setanta Sports.


    :huh

    I'm sure it is just another mistake - they apparently did a typo error over a weigh-in for a UFC fight which confused some people.

    Very strange, as that same report stated sky sports yesterday - it's word for word the same bar the BBC part!

    I did think that Sky would have announced something if they had signed him up - guess we will have to wait and see!! Be great if it was on the beeb!

    At the scene of boxing they are stating it is on PPV and that was published 6 minutes ago.

    Tbh I think the guy at Fightnews made a mistake. No way the BBC are putting on live boxing.

    I have a saying that gets me things I want.... best to repeat it to yourself first thing in the morning and before you go to bed.....

    'It seems so good, it HAS to be TRUE'.

    I'm not ashamed to say that I'd cum in my pants if this was on the BBC.
