According to multiple sources in Germany, former champions Felix Sturm and Robert Stieglitz will collide on November 8th at the Porsche Arena in Stuttgart, Germany. The fight is going to take place at a catch-weight between 160 and 168.

Sturm (39-4-2, 18KOs) was last seen in May, losing his IBF middleweight title to Sam Soliman by way of a twelve round unanimous decision. Stieglitz (47-4, 27KOs) first saw action in March, dropping his WBO super middleweight title by split decision in a trilogy bout with Arthur Abraham. He returned in July to stop Sergey Khomitsky in ten rounds.
