World heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko is all but confirmed to next face brash unbeaten challenger Tyson Fury. The fight has formally been ordered by the World Boxing Organization (WBO) and World Boxing Associations (WBA), with a 60-day negotiations period due to begin Tuesday, May 5.
In the event that an agreement cannot be reached between the two camps, the bout will then be subject to a purse bid hearing.
Klitschko (64-3, 53KOs) is coming off of a 12-round points win over unbeaten American contender Bryant Jennings on April 24 at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The bout was Klitschko’s first stateside appearance in more than seven years.
