Rising Swedish light-heavyweight Erik Skoglund (11-0, 6 KOs) will return to the ring on September 22 at the Nordic Fight Night in Frederikshavn, taking on Argentinian Ricardo Marcello Ramallo (9-3, 8 KOs). The unbeaten 21-year-old comes off a second-round KO win over Fouad Nasri in Herning, which already was his fourth victory in 2012 and his fifth ever since beating Volodymyr Borovskyy despite a broken jaw in May 2011. “Things have been going very well as of late,” Skoglund said. “I have knocked out three of my last four opponents. I can feel that I get better and stronger with every fight I take.”

It’s worth to mention that if the fight between Klitschko and Wach happens, it will mark the first time in his 16 year pro career Wladimir Klitschko will face an opponent taller than himself.

That depends. Wlad says he is 6'5" -- Boxrec lists him as 6'6".

If Wlad is 6'5", he's fought a few guys taller than him -- Jameel McCline, Derrick Jefferson, and Ray Austin are all listed at 6'6".
