World Title Rematch Set Between British, Ukrainian Heavyweights

World Title Rematch Set Between British, Ukrainian Heavyweights

"Finally, the rematch is fixed. I'll remedy my mistake on October 29 at Manchester Arena. See you there!" Klitschko tweeted on September 7th. A July date for the return bout was postponed after Fury suffered an ankle injury. Klitschko after that threatened to go to court over negotiations for a rematch. Shortly after Fury postponed the July match, reports emerged that he had been the subject of a doping investigation last year. Fury denied the allegations, but in August the United Kingdom's anti-doping authorities revealed he had been provisionally suspended in June over the presence of a prohibited substance. The ban was lifted on appeal, pending an independent hearing, and Fury has been back in training since August.
