David Haye agrees London date with Vitali Klitschko

British heavyweight David Haye claims he has agreed a deal to box Ukrainian Vitali Klitschko in London next June.

Klitschko, 37, is the World Boxing Council champion but Haye is confident he can become a world champion at the weight.

The 28-year-old revealed the fight was agreed yesterday, following Vitali's brother Wladimir's win over Hasim Rahman in Germany, which saw him retain his IBF, IBO and WBO heavyweight titles.

Haye, a former cruiserweight world champion, said: "I am going after the most dangerous fighter on the planet."
