Report: Klitschko brothers
promise one fight with Haye

A German newspaper is reporting the Klitschko brothers have promised to fight David Haye in 2011 and are offering the British heavyweight a choice of which sibling to challenge.

A back injury forced Haye, the WBA champion, to withdraw from a fight with Wladimir Klitschko in 2009. Before retiring in October, he wants to fight both Wladimir -- who holds the IBF and WBO belts -- and older brother Vitali, who is the WBC champion.

On its website Saturday, German daily Bild quotes the Klitschkos as saying: "We promise there will be a fight against Haye in 2011."

The Ukrainians' statement adds that "he can choose which of us he wants to step into the ring against to lose his world title."

Wizards suspend Blatche, McGee in wake of fight

The Washington Wizards have suspended forward Andray Blatche and center JaVale McGee for one game for conduct detrimental to the team.

They will miss the team's game today at San Antonio.

The Washington Post reported on its website that Blatche and McGee were involved in an altercation outside an area club early Friday. The newspaper reported that two league sources said the players cursed at each other and exchanged punches, and another source told the Post that police were called to break up the fight.

Also: Larry Bruno, a former Geneva College football star who turned down a chance to play for the Pittsburgh Steelers but later coached Joe Namath in high school, has died. He was 88.

Bruno died Friday at Heritage Valley Beaver Hospital in Beaver, Pa. No cause was given.

Bruno, a running back whose jersey number was retired by Geneva, was drafted in the 13th round by the Steelers in 1947 but chose to go into coaching. His career at Monaca (1949-58) and Beaver Falls (1959-78) high schools was highlighted by a Namath-led 10-0 team in 1960.

Namath chose Bruno to present him when Namath entered the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1985.

The San Francisco 49ers are staying put until at least 2014 after the team reached a tentative deal with the city on repairs to Candlestick Park.

Mayor Gavin Newsom met with team president Jed York to hammer out the deal, which settles a $60 million claim filed by the 49ers. It alleged that the city failed to complete required maintenance on the stadium.
