    After the promoters have given each other offers the last developments are the following:

    [...]
    6. Palle offers Warren 5 mill to fight in Copenhagen.
    7. Warren says yes, but wants more.
    8. Palle gives him everything he wants (5.5 mill net).
    9. Warren finds out that he prefers the fight in Wales after all.
    10. Palle talks to Kessler, and he says "no problem as long as the money is right".
    11. The magic thing happens and they agree on a contract.
    12. Everyone is happy and Palle goes on holiday because the contract is finished and all that is left is for Warren to negociate with the HBO about time and money.
    13. Apparently the negotiations between Warren and the HBO are challenging.

    In todays news Palle is interviewed from his retreat and he comments:
    "We have nothing more to do with this. Everything is done, now all that is left is for Warren to get an agreement with HBO. I do not know Warren's economic demands from HBO but without an agreement between them the fight can not happen."

    Fingers crossed. :bbb
