There appears to be some trouble in the ongoing discussions to finalize the fight between IBO/IBF/WBO/WBA heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (58-3, 51 KOs) and undefeated Polish challenger Mariusz Wach (27-0, 15 KOs). According to Mariusz Kolodziej of Global Boxing Promotions, they have not accepted a deal to face Wladimir on November 10th in Hamburg, Germany - citing a contract clause that obligates Wach to K2 Promotions for three fights.

A few weeks ago, WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko (44-2, 40KOs) held a press conference in Kiev and poked some fun at Charr, who wasn't there, by posing with a cardboard photo of Charr and painting black eyes on the face. Charr (21-0, 11KOs) held a press conference of his own in Germany and brought in a mock-version of Vitali, who also wasn't present. The fight takes place on September 8th at Olimpiyskiy in Moscow, Russia. Photos by Martin Hartung/Allboxing.ru.

Former undisputed champion Lennox Lewis believes that a meeting between him and Britain’s current top heavyweight David Haye would have been a one-sided contest if the two had ever clashed in the ring. The now-retired three-time heavyweight king, who is revered as one of the greatest to lace up the gloves in the top division, says that his old weight-class is now made for giants and former cruiserweight Haye is just too small to reign at 6ft 3ins and 210lbs.

WBA "regular" heavyweight champion Alexander Povetkin (24-0, 16KOs) has denied some of the recently published comments on the internet, where the Klitschko brothers have claimed that he's running from a potential fight. Povetkin is waiting for a new date for his mandatory fight with former WBC champion Hasim Rahman.

Bernd Boente, manager of the Klitschko brothers, believes that WBC champion Vitali will defend his belt in England next year against two-weight world title holder and arch-rival David Haye. Haye, 31, was offered the chance to fight 41 year-old Klitschko this coming September, but turned down the fight and duly dispatched former Vitali opponent Dereck Chisora seven rounds quicker than the Ukrainian.

Wladimir Klitschko hopes talks will remain open with David Haye regarding a fight with he or his brother. Haye 'retired' after receiving a 12-round bashing at the hands of Wladimir last summer, but unsurprisingly came back less than a year later to beat Dereck Chisora at Upton Park earlier this month. That impressive stoppage victory once again sparked speculation that the 'Hayemaker' could be in a position to get it on with WBC champion Vitali Klitschko, or even face Wladimir in a rematch.
