13:15 29/11/2015

Speaking to media following his defeat to Tyson Fury, Wladimir Klitschko confirms that the pair will do battle once again.

Klitschko, whose nine-year reign as world heavyweight champion was ended by Fury on Saturday night, said that there is a rematch clause in the contract that brought the two together.

It will give the Ukrainian the opportunity to regain the WBA, WBO and IBF title that Fury now holds.

"It's way too early to say anything – where, how, when? Let's wait and you will definitely get to know."

When a reporter then asked if Klitschko would take a rematch, the 39-year-old replied: "I have it in the contract, yes."

Fury earned a superb win with scores of 115-112 twice and 116-111 despite being deducted a point for fouling.
