Tyson Fury Could Face Wladimir Klitschko In The Middle East

Tyson Fury's rematch with Wladimir Klitschko could be held in the Middle East as negations between the two fighters continue.

Fury was crowned the unified heavyweight world champion last November by outpointing the Ukrainian in Dusseldorf but a clause in the contract for the fight stated that the rematch would take place wherever it made financial sense. The fight is expected to take place in May, Fury's trainer and uncle Peter revealed a venue has not yet been chosen.

“Everything is open at the moment but they are in the frame. We are dealing with it. We are looking at May, but it could be May 7, 14, 21 or 28. Nothing is fixed. There are many countries in the race at the moment and the UAE are in the running for sure. If the finances were all similar, of course we'd like to have it back here in England. All those tricks of the trade won't be an argument any more  the ring will be done properly, there'll be no dispute with the gloves and there'll be no more argument because everything will be correct” Peter said.
