Russian promoter Vladimir Hryunov goes after Klitschko for spreading rumors of money being bet on Roy Jones Jr. to lose.

WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder (35-0, 34KOs) was a little disappointed last month, when Tyson Fury stunned Wladimir Klitschko to capture the WBA/WBO/IBF/IBO world titles. Wilder, who returns on January 16th against Artur Szpilka at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, felt he was very close to landing a fight with Klitschko in 2016.

Johnathon Banks, head trainer of Wladimir Klitschko (64-4, 53KOs), says his fighter will let his hands go when he faces Tyson Fury (25-0, 18KOs) in a rematch next year. In one of the bigger upsets in recent years, Fury traveled to Germany and won a twelve round unanimous decision over Klitschko to capture the IBF/IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight titles on November 28th.

The IBF Heavyweight World Title, which was won by Tyson Fury on November 28, 2015 when he beat the reigning champion Wladimir Klitschko in an optional defense of this title, was vacated on Tuesday, December 8, 2015 by the IBF as Tyson Fury is unable to make the mandatory defense of the IBF title against challenger Vyacheslav Glaskov because he is contractually obligated to a rematch with Klitschko, which is in direct violation of the IBF/USBA Rules Governing Championship Contests.

WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder is picking Tyson Fury to pull off a repeat of last Saturday's shocking upset in Dusseldorf, Germany. Fury sent shockwaves throughout the boxing industry when he boxed his way to a twelve round unanimous decision victory over Wladimir Klitschko to capture the WBO/WBA/IBO/IBF heavyweight titles.

Highly respected veteran trainer Ulli Wegner, who worked with many world champions in his long career, was very disappointed with last Saturday's heavyweight title fight between Tyson Fury and Wladimir Klitschko. Fury shocked the world with a twelve round unanimous decision over Klitschko to pick up the WBA/WBO/IBF/IBO heavyweight titles.

Newly crowned unified World heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has said he will “annihilate” Wladimir Klitschko in their rematch. The return contest, yet to be signed and sealed, now looks on course after Klitschko confirmed via Instagram earlier in the week he would exercise his rematch clause.

Wladimir Klitschko says the desire to prove a point is behind his decision to take up his option on an immediate rematch against new world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury. Klitschko admitted he underperformed in losing his crown to Fury in a below-par contest in Dusseldorf last Saturday night and did not take long to reject any possibility of retirement.

Former super middleweight champion Carl Froch believes Wladimir Klitschko is making a very big mistake in exercising his right to an immediate rematch with Tyson Fury. Last Saturday night in Dusseldorf, Fury pulled off an upset win that rocked the boxing world, when he won twelve round unanimous decision over Klitschko to capture the WBO/IBO/WBA/IBF heavyweight titles. Klitschko was undefeated for over a decade and champion for nearly that length of time.
