Tyson Fury v Wladimir Klitschko: Date confirmed for rematch at Manchester Arena
TYSON FURY'S long-awaited rematch with Wladimir Klitschko will take place on October 29 at Manchester Arena.
Tyson Fury and Wladimir Klitschko will have their rematch for the WBO and WBA titles on October 29
The WBA and WBO heavyweight champion will defend his titles against the Ukrainian after rows over money and drug testing were sorted in the last week.
Fury, 28, dethroned Klitschko in November of last year to become the first fighter to beat him in 11 years.
That suspension has since been lifted pending a hearing in November.
Fury's uncle and trainer Peter said: “I’m delighted that we can finally get the fight back on and in Manchester on October 29.
After hard discussions we can now focus on giving the fans what they deserve; another barnburner of a fight. Team Fury will ensure Tyson is in the shape of his life to successfully retain his world titles.”
