Watch LIVE on March 3 at 4:30pm ET! Finally, on March 3, Wladimir Klitschko (56-3, 49 KOs) will make his 11th defense, against France's Jean-Marc Mormeck (36-4, 22 KOs), the former cruiserweight champion, at ESPRIT Arena in Düsseldorf, Germany. The fight was originally scheduled for Dec. 10 but was postponed because Klitschko needed surgery to remove a kidney stone a week before the bout.
Klitschko vs Mormeck Livestream
This Saturday in Düsseldorf, in front of more than 50,000 spectators, Jean-Marc Mormeck will pit himself against the immense Wladimir Klitschko, aiming to take possession of the four world heavyweight belts (WBA, WBO, IBF, IBO) held by the Ukrainian. This is the challenge of a lifetime for the French boxer, who has regained his punching ability during the last two years and who fully intends to put an end to the reign of the younger Klitschko brother, unbeaten since 2004!
His defeat in the 7th round against the Englishman David Haye in November 2007 seemed to mark the end of a great career for Mormeck, multiple WBA (2002, 2006, 2007) and WBC (2005, 2006, 2007) cruiserweight world champion. But in 2009, at the age of 37, the man from Pointe-à-Pitre, Guadeloupe, set himself one final challenge: moving up to the heavyweight division to exact his revenge on Haye. If his dream of getting back into the ring with the Englishman does not ultimately come true, Mormeck has earned the right, through his victories over Vinny Maddalone, Fres Oquendo and Timur Ibragimov, to take on the undisputed master of the division, Wladimir Klitschko.
