Chisora to fight Vitali Klitschko in February, according to German newspaper
German national newspaper Bild is reporting that Vitali Klitschko will box Londoner Dereck Chisora next February.
According to them, the WBC heavyweight champion will defend his title at Munich's Olympic Hall on Saturday 18th February.
Chisora looked desperately unlucky to lose by split decision when travelling to Finland earlier this month to challenge Robert Helenius for his European title.
"An interesting opponent," the 40-year old Ukrainian told Bild. "For me, he won the European Championship against Robert Helenius quite clearly."
The newspaper also reports that the veteran champ will fight David Haye in Germany in June.

Interesting news. Not a bad double header and both fights are within the first half of the year meaning he'd still have room for a third fight in 2012.
I like the Chisora fight and don't really care whether Haye gets another title shot or not. I do think Haye should have to at least win a fight between now and June but i doubt he'll fight between that time. Haye only wants the fight for the money anyway so doesn't need to fight between now and then to prepare properly.
