BERLIN // Wladimir Klitschko's management says the highly anticipated fight between the Ukrainian IBF and WBO heavyweight champion and WBA title-holder David Haye will take place at the Imtech Arena in Hamburg on July 2.

The Klitschko Management Group said a deal was reached with the Bundesliga club SV Hamburg to use their 57,000 capacity stadium for the fight, which was originally due to take place in June 2009.

"We're all very happy that this mega fight has finally been confirmed. We are expecting this event to be shown live or delayed in well over 150 countries," the KMG executive Bernd Boente said.

Haye brings a 25-1 win/loss record with 23 knockouts to the fight. Klitschko has a 55-3 record with 49 knockouts.

Low turnout
Two months before the first round on April 10, the appetite of voters for the election is low.

Mathieu Gallard, account manager with Ipsos, which conducted the most recent poll, said current forecasts suggested only two-thirds were "very likely" to vote in the first round, compared with a 78 per cent turnout in the 2017 presidential elections.

"It depends on how interesting the campaign is on their main concerns," he told The National. "Just now, it's hard to say who, between Macron and the candidates of the right, would be most affected by a low turnout."

Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD)

What is THAAD?

It is considered to be the US' most superior missile defence system.

Production:

It was first created in 2008.

Speed:

THAAD missiles can travel at over Mach 8, so fast that it is hypersonic.

Abilities:

THAAD is designed to take out projectiles, namely ballistic missiles, as they are on their downward trajectory towards their target, otherwise known as the "terminal phase".

Purpose:

To protect high-value strategic sites, such as airfields or population centres.

Range:

THAAD can target projectiles both inside and outside of the Earth's atmosphere, at an altitude of 93 miles above the Earth's surface.

Creators:

Lockheed Martin was originally granted the contract to develop the system in 1992. Defence company Raytheon sub-contracts to develop other major parts of the system, such as ground-based radar.

UAE and THAAD:

In 2011, the UAE became the first country outside of the US to buy two THAAD missile defence systems. It then deployed them in 2016, becoming the first Gulf country to do so.
