KEY POINTS:
Ukrainian heavyweight Vitali Klitschko has been ordered to make a mandatory defence of his World Boxing Council title against the German-based Cuban Juan Carlos Gomez. The WBC agreed at its 46th general assembly in Chengdu, China, that if the promoters of both boxers fail to agree on a fight, the bout would open to purse bids on December 19 at the WBC's headquarters in Mexico City.
