By Correspondent

Tyson Fury and Vladimir Klitschko will have a rematch in Manchester on July 9 as he defends his WBA Super and WBO world heavyweight titles.The 27-year-old Fury (25-0-KO18) left the boxing world stunned in November when he deposed Klitschko (64-4-KO53) in Dusseldorf via unanimous decision and has booked the return clash after lengthy negotiations.Having discussed the possibility of staging the second bout in Dubai and dismissed a bizarre offer to fight on an exclusive yacht, Manchester has been finalised as the venue.Fury’s trainer Peter Fury said via Twitter, ”˜9th July @Tyson_Fury vs Klitschko is coming to Manchester UK. Official announcement coming 12 noon.’The news of the rival comes just a day before Fury’s domestic rival Anthony Joshua makes his maiden world title challenge against Charles Martin. Joshua and Fury have traded insults on social media outlets throughout fight week.Klitschko held the WBA Super, WBO and IBF titles and prior to losing to Fury had not been beaten in over 11 years.
