Akimat is an administration of the city. Due to very high anticipations of the fight, officials want to be first as a good news' messenger. They want to please the public that barely waits for the news. Maybe they have some inside information, but they have no idea what it takes to organize such a big boxing evening. Many organizational issues have to be resolved. And these not very clever officials undermine the bargaining power of GGG. I'm sure, GGG, as he proved in the past is tough guy in negotiations, and defends his reputation. For example the issues of commercials, TV broadcasting in UK, US and internationally. Who gets what? By the way I'm very pleased that the official that mislead the public about 17th of July is penalized.

"Akimat of Astana: information about the conduct of the battle Golovkin-Saunders on July 17 are unreliable

Akimat of Astana city published an official statement, refuting information that on July 17 at the stadium "Astana Arena" the fight will take place between the IBF / IBO / WBA / WBC middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin and the WBO champion Billy Joe Saunders.

Earlier the head of the department of tourism, physical culture and sports of Astana Berik Margikpaev said that the agreement on holding the battle on July 17 in Astana was reached and it is time for boxing fans to start preparing and saving money. However, the akimat noted that this information is unreliable."

Akimat is some sort of Government agency related to the EXPO. Not sure why the head of tourism would give a false story. Guess that means June 10 is still possible, Frank Warren says there will be some sort of announcement this week.

I'll keep posting any breaking news I find.

so he said she said, just cant trust this people...
next statements coming from Astana people should be taken with a grain of salt... no wonder they cant seal the deal for saunders...

"I'm not sure why the head of tourism would give false info."
Because they're the head of tourism and it's their job to get people to travel there.
