Tom Yankello, trainer of undefeated heavyweight contender Calvin Brock (29-0, 22 knockouts) informed the Pittsburgh Times-Review that the contract terms for a proposed bout between Brock and IBF heavyweight Wladimir Klitschko (46-3, 41 KOs) were agreed upon on Saturday. The bout will take place on November 11, at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

After training Paul Spadafora to the lightweight championship of the world, Yankello is ready to add a heavyweight champion to his resume.

"This is what I got in the business for," Yankello said. "There's no higher place than fighting for the heavyweight championship of the world. I always felt I had the ability to take a guy to that level," Yankello said. "I think I did it with Paul, but I didn't get the acknowledgements. I trained the guy to get there. When Calvin wins on the 11th, it's got to solidify my reputation as one of the great trainers in boxing. I'm as hungry as he is."

The trainer further told the Times-Review that Brock is very confident, and looks to forward to becoming the heavyweight champion of the world. Yankello, fired by Spadafora not long after he helped him win the lightweight crown, views the Brock fight as a personal redemption.

"I'm going to go out on a (limb): We're going to win," Yankello said. "This is a huge opportunity for Calvin to be heavyweight champion of the world, and for me to try to solidify my place in the boxing world. I'm trying to be one of the best trainers in boxing, and noted as such. Calvin is very, very confident. He's looking forward to being the heavyweight champion of the world."
