Former undisputed world heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson says WBC belt holder Vitaly Klitschko will win his match with Chris Arreola by knock out.

Iron Mike was in Germany to present a DVD about himself and talked to the local RTL channel.

And Cris Arreola said he’s not afraid of the champion and promised an exciting match for the fans.

The elder of the Klitschko brothers is to defend his title against his American rival on September 26. The home of NBA champs the Los Angeles Lakers – the Staples Center – will become the venue for the fight.

It’s a very special place for the Ukrainian boxer, as it was there where he held two of his most memorable fights – a TKO loss to Lennox Lewis and regaining the WDC belt against Samuel Peter last year.

"Los Angeles is my home. It is where I live with my wife and children. This is going to be a good fight. Arreola is undefeated. He will have lots of his fans there, too. So it will be a great night. But I am confident I will win," Vitaly Klitschko said to Braggingrightscorner.com.

Uhmmm...Does anyone really care what Tyson says? Amazing..he can't get press in his homeland, but the Russian press listens? He reminds me of an old commercial, 'When EF Hutton talks people listen' except in Tyson's case it's, 'When Tyson talks nobody cares.'
