Wladimir Klitschko will face David Haye on June 20 in Europe. The two sides were in a dispute over the site. Haye wanted the fight in New York's Madison Square Garden and Klitschko wanted the fight to take place in Europe, where both fighters have bigger names and can draw more money. In the end, both sides agreed to Europe.

It's taking place in the country of "Europe?"

What city is it in, “Europeville?”

Shouldn't matter too much where the fight is held

It’s going to end with a knockout anyway, and if it doesn’t then it probably means it was a blowout win for Wlad.

Vogt early, Vogt often.

This will be the end

Unless Haye can avoid the kayo, his very short ride is over. It seems like an all or nothing thing for me. If he wins, he is the “savior” of the heavyweights. If he gets KTFO, well then he is a man whose experience at HW includes KO’ing an minor gatekeeper and getting starched by a titlist who murdered the same minor gatekeeper seven years ago.

what would he do though?

Cruiserweight hasn’t been easy for him to make in the past, and by “not easy” I mean it’s been hard for him to get down to 200. He always looks in phenomenal shape because he’s a fitness freak. There’s also money. Even if Klitschko were to knock out Haye, but Haye made a good go of it, there’s a lot more money at HW than there is CW. I don’t see him going back down. Losing to the unanimous #1 fighter in the division wouldn’t be some great shame.

Patrick (Ft. Lauderdale, FL): How close are they to finalizing Haye-Wlad? Any chances its a no go?

SportsNation Dan Rafael: (12:37 AM ET ) The fight is dead in the water as of right now regardless of what you may have read elsewhere.

Doc nyc: Yesterday you said haye wlad was on.

SportsNation Dan Rafael: (12:56 AM ET ) Things chance every five minutes in boxing. A whole day is like a year sometimes. The fight is dead as of right now this minute. I have spoken to both sides today.
