My understanding is that the fight is taking place in Russia on May 21. Nice undercard too. Lebedev-Ramierez in a Cruiserweight unification fight and there is a possibility of Charlo-Trout as well.

That seems to be it though. I'm saw some Povetkin training camp pics the other day. I hope they finalize the date soon

No final date approved, and no particullar location of the fight. Boxrec need those things.

I believe that the contracts aren't signed yet, also.
