Contrary to certain reports in the British press, Bernd Boente, manager of IBF/IBO/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (55-3, 49KOs), denied to BoxingScene.com that an agreement had been reached for a fight with unbeaten British champion Derek Chisora (14-0, 9KOs). Boente told BoxingScene that "nothing had been signed," and the two sides were still negotiating a potential deal. If K2 reaches an agreement with Chisora's promoter Frank Warren, the fight is going to take place on December 11 in Germany.
