By Eric Thomas: IBF/IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (60-3, 51 KO’s) and WBA heavyweight champion Alexander Povetkin (26-0, 18 KO’s) have reportedly agreed to terms for a fight on October 5th at the Olimpiyskiy, in Moscow, Russia. The negotiations had dragged out for months before finally the two sides agreeing to make the fight happen. There was too much money on the table for the fight not to happen.
The fight will pit two former Olympic gold medalists, Wladimir, the Ukrainian gold medalist, and Povetkin, the Russian gold medalist, against each other in Moscow.
