Haye – Klitschko trilogy to begin 20th June

April 8, 2009

David Haye’s highly anticipated clash with one of the Klitschko brothers will finally take place on 20th June.

The younger brother, Wladimir, will be his opponent, but this could only be the start of a potentially historic trilogy.

If Haye beats the Ukrainian then a mandatory rematch will take place later on in the year before he meetsĀ te elder brother Vitali.

The venue for the IBF and WBO title match will be Schalke 04 football club’s ground in Germany which can hold a massive 61,000 audience.

It’s taken months of negotiations to arrange the fight, maily due to the Klitschko’s taking offence at a publicity stunt that saw Haye holding Wladimir’s head as a trophy in a national newspaper.

However, this is the much needed fight the Heavyweight division has craved for years and could see Haye turn into a true boxin superstar.

We will of course bring you all of the coverage in the build up to this massive fight.
