German tabloid Bild Zeitung writes that Vitali Klitschko vs Samuel Peter for the WBC Heavyweight title is now officially on for October 11 at the brand new O2 Arena in Berlin. Klitschko will be trained by Fritz Sdunek. At the moment, it doesn´t look like it will be a Klitschko doubleheader with Wladimir fighting Alexander Povetkin.

WBA super middle champ Mikkel Kessler´s defence against Danilo Haussler is now almost certainly on for October 25 with Berlin as a possible site.

Russian Sergej Kharchenko, who according to just about everyone but two judges beat Haussler in 2006, was knocked out last night in Poland by Piotr Wilczewski. On the same show - in Swiebodzice - heavyweight Marius Wach outscored Daniel Peret while Norwegian junior welter Geir Inge Jorgensen won over Marian Hodorog, also on points.

King Arthur Abraham´s defence of the IBF Middleweight title against Raul Marquez goes ahead on October 4 in Bamberg.

Polish lightweights Dariusz Snarski and Maciej Zegan could clash on September 5 in an interesting fight between two still capable veterans. Zegan is still signed to Don King Productions and reportedly needs to get out of that contract before fighting Snarski.

WBO Intercontinental middle titleholder Sebastian Zbik defends the belt on August 29 in Duesseldorf against Brazilian John Anderson Carvalho.

Heavies - and stablemates - Rene Dettweiler and Cengiz Koc clash in a supporting bout to Valuev vs Ruiz on August 30. Kali Meehan from New Zealand is also on the bill as well as Russian Andrei Fedosov.

Finnish-Swedish heavy Robert Helenius could join the Night of the Champions show on September 5 in Karlstad for a final four-round level fight in Sweden before stepping into the real world of professional boxing and will then continue his buildup in Finland and Germany.

Former WIBF junior middle ruler Karolina Lukasik has left Spotlight Boxing and is now back home in Poland with Bullitt Knockout Promotions.

The Sauerland Event show in Bielefeld on September 20 features French junior middle Christophe Canclaux and Bosnian cruiser Enad Licina. Licina could be fighting for the vacant EE-EU title, but there´s still no co-challenger found.
