| Klitschko-Haye: Boxers Settle Dispute on Ticket Beef
|
|
By Mark Vester According to a report in The Sun, heavyweight champions David Haye and Wladimir Klitschko have settled their dispute over tickets for their July 2 showdown. The two boxers were recently embroiled in a back and forth tussle over the number of tickets being allocated. The press tour, scheduled to begin this week, was pushed back until Monday to give the their sides more time to settle this issue. The paper reports that Haye has been allocated 7,000 tickets for the invasion of his UK fans to the Imtech Stadium in Hamburg, Germany. The venue holds 57,000.
