The battle of Vladimir Klitschko and James Tony will not take place
The leadership of the International Boxing Federation refused to issue a sanction for a heavyweight fight between the world champion Vladimir Klitschko and the former world champion in three weight categories James Tony. The fight was scheduled for December 11.
The official reason for the refusal was that Tony did not reach the ring for a long time. His previous battle is dated September 2009.
However, Tony himself is sure that Klitschko is simply trying to avoid the planned battle. In addition, the brothers have a great influence on authorizing boxing organizations. For his part, Vladimir Klitschko said that with the next opponent he will be determined within two to three weeks. Among these are David Tua, Solis, Chris Arreol, as well as Russian Alexander Povetkin. Recall that the meeting of Klitschko and Povetkin was supposed to take place in September, but was canceled due to the failure of the Russian obligations.

Belgian tennis player Kim Klisters will miss the tournament in China, which starts on October 2. The US Open champion of the last two years has been done a cosmetic operation on the foot to remove moles. The consequences of surgical intervention and the recovery process took more time than planned originally.
“I am very sorry that I have to refuse to speak in Beijing,” said the tennis player. “But the wound heals very badly on the foot.” In such a situation, it is impossible to play tennis. ” Earlier, the American Serena Williams refused to participate in the Beijing start, so the “sowing” at the tournament in China, whose prize fund will be $ 4.5 million, will be headed by the Danish woman Karolin Wozniastski.
Our athletes and coaches will raise salaries
The Minister of Sports, Tourism and Youth Policy of the Russian Federation Vitaly Mutko said that the salaries of trainers and athletes will soon grow in Russia.
“Soon, the minimum salary of the athlete will be 30 thousand rubles, the maximum - 110 thousand. Also, all members of the national teams will be insured by the state for 300 thousand euros when traveling abroad. This will avoid situations such as with athlete Irina Skvortsova, when we manually had to resolve all issues with payment of treatment.
In the near future, the Government of the Russian Federation will present the State Duma draft amendments to the Law “On Physical Culture and Sports”. It will be about strengthening the role of the state. The question of the participation of the state in the approval of the head coaches of the national teams, training programs and their control will be raised. The powers of the federations, which will be more responsible to society for their work, will also be clarified, ”Mutko RIA Novosti quoted the words.
