    Using google translator for Bild story http://translate.google.com/translate?js=n&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&layout=2&eotf=1&sl=auto&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bild.de%2FBILD%2Fsport%2Fmehr-sport%2Fboxen%2F2011%2F03%2F06%2Fwladimir-klitschko-david-haye%2Fwm-kampf-perfekt.html

    Bonte: The fight is at 99 percent done. Two possible dates 25 June or 2 July. Possible venues all in Germany: Schalke, Dortmund or Kaiserslautern
    Sky to show fight in UK
    RTL to show fight in Germany.
    Fight to make (television and ticket revenues) around €25m
    All proceeds are shared (50-50?)
    there are no options
    no rematch clause

    Can someone who can read german provide a better translation?

    Bönte: "The fight is 99% done. We have two dates with June 25th and July 2nd. Possible venues in Germany are the stadiums of Schalke, Dortmund and Kaiserslautern." (he doesn´t say that all of the possible venues are in Germany)

    According to "Bild", the contract says all proceeds are shared (probably 50/50), no options and no rematch clauses. If Wladimir gets injured, Vitali will replace him.
    TV network to broadcast the fight in the UK is Sky and negotiations with RTL in Germany (TV and ticket revenues of about € 25m).

    David Haye just posted this on Twitter:

    So Klitschko V Chisora is off.... Ha Ha Ha, God must truly be a boxing fan! (As my prayers have been answered) My path is finally clear!

    Not so strange to think Wlad wouldn't be fully healed from a 3.4 cm abdominal tear he sustained in December. I said in comments on the front page story when it happened that I didn't think he'd be healed by April when the April Haye fight was first being discussed. Haye began calling him out again the day after he announced his injury and withdrew from the Chisora fight last December. Haye knew he wouldn't be fully healed by April, much less by March when it was time to train. Let's hope he's healed for July 2.
