    The conflicting reports are a bit confusing and annoying...

    first there was a rumor that his hand was broken and that he was in a cast.

    then it was just his middle finger...

    then Wlad denied the rumors and said he was fine - and that it was just normal swelling on his finger and nothing was broken...

    What is the real truth?

    I hope this doesn't mean that Wlad will sit out the rest of '07.

    Can you post a link to that source?

    yes - I saw that report earlier today...but Dan Rafael isn't exactly the most investigative reporter -- he posted that Klitschko's hand was broken when it clearly was his middle finger - if anything.

    From Shelly Finkel (Wlad's advisor):

    As for Klitschko's immediate future, his advisor Shelly Finkel would tell Maxboxing: "He's gonna have his hands checked on Friday or Monday and then he'll determine if he's going to fight in November, December."
