Wladimir Klitschko fight to go ahead

Wladimir Klitschko has insisted that next weekend's world heavyweight bout against Jean-Marc Mormeck will go ahead, despite being recently hospitalised.

The IBF, IBO, WBO and WBA heavyweight title holder had a kidney stone removed on Friday but his spokesman Klaus-Peter Dittrich says that everything is on schedule for next Saturday's fight in Dusseldorf.

"The planning and preparation for the fight are going ahead as planned," said Dittrich.

Klitschko added the WBA belt to his accolades by defeating David Haye in July.
