Klitschko pulls out of Mormeck bout

FRANKFURT — Wladimir Klitschko's management company says the WBO, IBF and WBA heavyweight champion has pulled out of his fight against French challenger Jean-Marc Mormeck after having an operation to remove a kidney stone.

The fight had been scheduled for Saturday in Duesseldorf.

Klitschko suffered abdominal pains at his training camp in Austria on Friday. The 35-year-old was taken to Innsbruck for initial treatment before being transferred to a Duesseldorf hospital. The stone was removed on Saturday but Klitschko returned to the hospital on Sunday before a scheduled television appearance.
