Well, that didn't take long.
After the champ's calf injury scrapped their proposed October 24th bout, Wladimir Klitschko and Tyson Fury have a new date: November 28th. Klitschko took to Twitter earlier today to announce that the injury was indeed minor and would delay the fight bout for only around a month.
My injury will heal quickly enough for me to enter the ring on November 28. I will promptly continue my training camp pic.twitter.com/oamS9EbhRs

ITV and Sky Sports are reportedly discussing the rights to the fight; a win for the former would put this fight on free TV.
Now that most of this has been sorted out, we can go back to yelling at each other about whose ass is going to be summarily kicked. I've got the one who didn't dress as Batman.
