Haye announces Klitschko fight
British heavyweight David Haye claims he has agreed a deal to fight Ukrainian Vitali Klitschko in London next June.
Klitschko, 37, is the World Boxing Council champion, however, Haye has expressed confidence he can become a world champion at the weight and will now have the chance to back up his words with actions.
Former cruiserweight king Haye announced his arrival as a credible force in the heavyweight division by destroying Monte Barrett in five rounds last month.
Wladimir Klitschko, Vitali's brother, recently likened 28-year-old Haye to Britain's former WBO heavyweight champion Herbie Hide, who proved too small to survive among the bigger men.
Haye made his announcement on BBC Radio Five Live.
