WBA sanctions Joshua-Klitschko for spring 2017 (The Associated Press)
The World Boxing Association has finally sanctioned a fight between Anthony Joshua and Wladimir Klitschko for its ”super” heavyweight title. The fight will take place in the spring of 2017, but only if Joshua beats Eric Molina on Dec. 10 in the British boxer’s second defense of his IBF title. The WBA super belt is vacant after Tyson Fury relinquished it last month, citing ”clinical depression.” Fury beat Klitschko in November last year to take the WBA, IBF and minor WBO titles off the Ukrainian boxer.
