Klitschko beats Wach on points, retains title

HAMBURG - World heavyweight champion Vladimir Klitschko had to go the distance against Polish challenger Mariusz Wach but earned a unanimous points decision, 120-107 120-107 119-109, on Saturday to retain his four title belts.

The 36-year-old Ukrainian, who holds the IBF, IBO, WBO and WBA crowns, was never seriously troubled by the 32-year-old, who saw his unbeaten record snap after 27 wins in 27 fights. Klitschko improved his record to 59 wins from 62 fights.
