Bernd Boente, the manager for world heavyweight champions Wladimir and Vitali Klitschko, is confident that his boxers will win their upcoming fights. He expects Wladimir to unify the WBO/WBA/IBF/IBO titles by defeating British boxer David Haye on July 2 at the Imtech-Arena in Hamburg, Germany - and Vitali to retain the WBC belt by defeating younger challenger Tomasz Adamek at Stadion Miejski in Wroclaw, Poland.

WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko believes his upcoming opponent, Tomasz Adamek, is a better and stronger fighter than David Haye, the WBA champion. Adamek (44-1, 28 KOs) will challenge Klitschko (42-2, 39 KO) for the title on Septeber 10 in Poland. Haye will face Vitali's younger brother IBO/WBO/IBF champion Wladimir Klitschko, on July 2. In talking, Vitali gives the edge to Haye, but in fighting he gives the clear edge to Adamek.

Wroclaw, Poland - former two division champion Tomasz Adamek (44-1, 28 KOs), and WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko (42-2, 39 KOs), came face to face to announce their anticipated clash on September 10 at the new soccer stadium in Wroclaw, Poland. Photos by bokser.org.

Tomasz Adamek (44-1, 28 KOs) is not coming to lay down. He plans to test Vitali Klitschko (42-2, 39 KOs) very early in their scheduled fight. Adamek challenges Klitschko for the WBC heavyweight title on September 10 at the new soccer stadium in Wroclaw, Poland. By the time the fight comes around, the older Klitschko will be 40-years-old. Adamek wants to start at a fast pace in the early rounds and place a lot of pressure on Klitschko to stay active in the entire fight.

Kathy Duva, CEO of Main Events and promoter of top heavyweight contender Tomasz Adamek, spoke to BoxingScene.com about her boxer's upcoming fight with WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko. On Friday, the fight was officially announced to take place on September 10 at Stadion Miejski, a soccer stadium in the Polish city of Wroclaw.

WBA heavyweight champion David Haye is giving Polish star Tomasz Adamek a shot to beat WBC champion Vitali Klitschko on September 10th in Poland. Adamek, like Haye, is a former cruiserweight champion who moved up to the heavyweight division. But, Haye has a feeling that Vitali will withdraw from the fight.

The dates and venues for two of the most anticipated heavyweight fights in the last few years are in the process of being finalized. WBO/IBO/IBF champion Wladimir Klitschko (55-3, 49KOs) is reportedly going to unify with his WBA rival, David Haye (25-1, 23KOs), on July 2 in a soccer stadium in Hamburg, Germany. The soccer stadium is capable of seating over 55,000 fans.
