Klitschko gives Brock title shot

WLADIMIR KLITSCHKO will make the first defence of his IBF heavyweight title against American Calvin Brock in New York on November 11.

There had been talk of a unification bout with Oleg Maskaev, who took the WBC title from Hasim Rahman last month.

But instead, the unbeaten Brock, 31, has finally been given an opportunity to win a world crown.
