Heavyweight Corrie Sanders, who is preparing for the fight for the WBC world champion title against Ukrainian Vitali Klitschko, which will take place on April 24 in Los Angeles, stated that if he wins this bout, he will also have a rematch with Wladimir. If Sanders loses, he will leave professional boxing.
Sanders said this in a Johannesburg suburb, where he held a press training session for journalists. "If I lose (to Vitali), I will leave boxing..., if I win, I will have one more fight," Sanders noted. "I would like to beat Vitali, and then have a rematch with his brother as well."
It is worth noting that at training Sanders looked quite good. This means that his physical condition, namely his weight, was lower than in the fight with Wladimir Klitschko in March of last year, where the South African appeared in the ring looking like a real retired policeman, which, by the way, he actually is. In his communication with journalists, Sanders again reminded that no one gave him a chance in the fight with Wladimir Klitschko either, and it was he who won.
Sanders' manager Vernon Smith noted that his boxer has been training since mid-January. "He can easily fight all 12 rounds if needed," Reuters quotes him as saying.
It is worth noting the following interesting fact. Initially, the fight between Vitali Klitschko and Corrie Sanders was supposed to take place on April 17, however, NBA playoff games were scheduled for that day. As a result, it was decided to move the bout to April 24, which will take place in Los Angeles at the "Staples Center".
