Print Edition
HEAVYWEIGHT champion Wladimir Klitschko has postponed his title fight next month against Briton Tyson Fury following a tendon injury in training, the Ukrainian said yesterday.
The 39-year-old Klitschko’s WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO crowns were to be on the line when the pair met in the German city of Duesseldorf on October 24 but he sought medical treatment on Thursday after tearing a tendon in his calf. Klitschko said in a statement: “I am really sorry not to be able to box on October 24 and that of course goes for my opponent as well who has been preparing for this fight for weeks.” A new date will be announced next week after further medical checks. Klitschko has not lost for 11 years and has a record of 64 wins and three defeats, while the 26-year-old Fury is unbeaten at 24-0.
