Contract Between SPORTFIVE and Klitschkos Expires

After six years of cooperation between SPORTFIVE and Vitali and Wladimir Klitschko, the marketing and personality rights are reverting to the Klitschko brothers. From now on, all aspects of marketing, including the sale of their personality rights and the rights to their boxing matches, will be managed by the Klitschkos’ own newly established company, Klitschko Management Group GmbH.

Vitali and Wladimir Klitschko said: “We are continuing the course we set out on with our event agency, “K2 Promotions,” on the marketing level. We would like to thank everyone at SPORTFIVE for the successful collaboration.”

“It’s understandable that the Klitschkos want to take the next entrepreneurial step,” said Robert Müller von Vultejus, Executive Vice President of SPORTFIVE. “We spent six very successful years cooperating with them on the marketing of the Klitschko brand, and hold them in very high regard as our partners.”

We’ll glad to be of assistance for any further information.
