Ukraine's Vladimir Klitschko thinks his heavyweight title fight against Russia's Sultan Ibragimov will be a turning point in boxing history.

The pair will clash on February 23 at Madison Square Garden.

The first heavyweight unification fight in nine years will see IBF champion Klichko and WBO holder Ibragimov go head to head to find out who is the best heavyweight fighter in the world.

Vladimir Klitschko says this is not just another unification fight.

“We are going to have a champion who will own more than one or two belts. This is great and I am really happy about that,” Klichko said.
