The coming attraction!

Yesterday I finally scored an interview -- via phone, direct from the Ukraine -- with former WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko, who's running for mayor of Kiev. The vote is coming up on May 25, and Klitschko is attempting to knock out (well, theoretically -- but he does have a higher knockout percentage than any other heavyweight champ!) incumbent Leonid Chernovetsky.

So stay tuned for my column on this matchup, where Klitschko -- who holds a Ph.D., incidentally -- confesses that politics is much more difficult than boxing. He also uses his upbringing in a Soviet state to craft his vision of how the Ukraine really needs to embrace true democracy and knock out corruption.
