IBF/IBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko says he is set to collide with WBO heavyweight champion Sultan Ibragimov in the first heavyweight title unification fight in eight years. "I am hugely glad that after intensive negotiations we are able to do this title unification," stated Klitschko. "This is what fans worldwide want to see. Ibragimov has proved his class with persuasive victories against ex-world champions Shannon Briggs and Evander Holyfield. This will be a very exciting duel and Madison Square Garden is the perfect arena for it." The bout is expected to be officially announced shortly. HBO will televise in the US, RTL will carry the fight in Germany.
