    Here's the google translate version:

    Bente said that the team Klitschko seriously considering the option of conducting a fight against Hay at Wembley Stadium, but noted that Hay makes every effort to avoid a fight with the Ukrainians.

    "It is more important is another question, would it ever fight Klitschko - Haye.'s Afraid if Haye to enter the ring against Klitschko, whether overcome this fear. We are in talks with Adam Booth, manager of Hay. But something concrete is difficult to say," - Bente admitted.

    Expressing his opinion on the negotiations with Hay, Bente Berndt said: "I think the Englishman simply afraid to fight. David has twice had the opportunity to go into battle against the Klitschko brothers. But both times he was looking for reasons to abandon the match. Now we need to agree to the following Sunday - 16 th May.

    "Vladimir wants this fight. But if Haye is not ready for battle, or to put it bluntly, afraid , then we will return to negotiations for a fight for the championship belt with a Russian Povetkin, but Haye will fight with Audley Harrison, "- said the representative of the team Klitschko.

    I would be flabbergasted if Haye fights Wlad next, or the fight after that for that matter.

    Oh wow now that's a shocker isn't it. Haye making negotiations difficult is exactly what many of us here feared.

    He would enter these negotiations with ridiculous demands and incrementally erect new barriers to a deal. And then after a couple of weeks say how it's "too hard to finalize a deal" and now he has to fight another near 40 year old bum. Audley perfectly fits his amazing HW track record of over-the-hill nobodies. Great.

    Of course, Boente is gonna say that. He represents the Klitschkos. Anyway, Wlad said today that Haye is allowed to face another fighter before they square off.

    I think even if Haye goes for Harrison there will be plenty of fans supporting this and trying to find some convoluted logic for this fight. Some already calling Haye the heavyweight king in the British press.
    Similar as in Russia, the russians are 100% sure that it is Klitschko that is ducking Povetkin big time, based on the press they read/see.

    Didn't somebody post a link to a British source claiming that SKY Sports is pushing for that fight?

    It was on Doghouse Boxing:

    By Steve Kim, MaxBoxing (May 4, 2010) Special to Doghouse Boxing (Photo © German Villasenor, DHB)
    "- Hearing that while talks are underway between the camps of heavyweight titlists, Wlad Klitschko and David Haye, Sky TV of Britain, is pushing for a Haye- Audley Harrison fight. I wish I were joking but I swear, that’s what I’m told."

    It's not a Russian but a Ukrainian source. And yes every country's press will be biased when reporting about their own fighters, although I have not heard of a single instance when a non-yellow-press publication completely fabricated an interview.

    FFS, Haye's manager/trainer has already said Audley is not on their radar. Audley is injured anyway.

    If Haye-Wlad does not happen, my guess is Haye will fight Adamek.

    And since when was Ukrainian news so ****ing reliable?

    How often do you read them to make any judgements?
    I've been reading UKR news about Klitschko's for years as they get the info much quicker than ESB does, and it was always confirmed by other sources later on. Good enough?
