It looks like the canceled fight between Wladimir Klitschko and Tyson Fury will finally take place and the date will reportedly be on Nov. 28.

The fight was originally scheduled to take place on Oct. 24 in Düsseldorf, Germany when the 39-year-old Ukrainian boxer was forced to pull out on account of a torn tendon on his left calf, which he reportedly suffered during training.

"The clinical and MRI examination showed a partial musculo-tendinous tear of the left calf. The fight should be postponed for an indefinite period of time. Purchased tickets keep their validity," according to a statement from the Guardian.

Until now, there was no word on when the fight would be rescheduled.

The fight will still take place at the same venue. Klitschko will be staking the World Boxing Association (WBA), World Boxing Organization (WBO), International Boxing Federation (IBF) and International Boxing Organization (IBO) belts on the line in what promises to be a classic bout to watch.

The Ukrainian pug has not lost for the past 11 years and holds a record of 64 wins and 3 losses. He will be taking on a dangerous Fury who is perfect at 24–0.

According to Klitschko's statement which was put up at the boxer's website (via Reuters), "My injury will heal quickly enough for me to enter the ring on Nov. 28." 

"I will promptly continue my training camp preparations and, of course, I am very happy to still be fighting this year especially for my fans who have already bought their tickets," he added.

Klitschko is heading into the match after disposing of previously unbeaten Bryant Jennings last April 25, while Fury is hoping to add the Ukrainian to his list of victims as he goes for win number 25. His last fight was against Dereck Chisora whom he knocked out in the 10th round.
