Haye – Chisora Brawl Under Investigation

German police have begun to step up their investigations into the brawl that took place between British Heavyweight boxers Derek Chisora and David Haye on the 18th of February this year. The brawl between the two London residents took place during the post match press conference after Chisora was defeated by Vitali Klitschko in their WBC Championship fight on the night of the 18th and it has been reported that the German police in Munich have taken it upon themselves to solve the case that saw huge property damage.

Chisora was detained and interrogated at that moment before being released by the police but Haye had left the country by the time, leaving them without any testimony from the former champion. But now, it is being reported that the police have begun questioning people that were present at the press conference on that night and have also e-mailed many witnesses as to what happened during that night, who said what to each other and who instigated the fight and so on.

After Chisora put up a spirited display in his loss to Klitschko, David Haye, who was present at the arena in his working capacity as a television expert, barged into the press conference, getting involved in a verbal spat with Bernd Boente, the manager of Vladimir Klitschko. It has been reported that Chisora and Haye had a spat after that and Chisora went on to remove his robe and the two set up an impromptu street fight.

Chisora has claimed that he was hit by Haye, who was holding a bottle in his hand and the brawl that ensued cost huge damage in property. The British Boxing Board of Control has banned Chisora indefinitely and since David Haye is retired, he will be unaffected unless he applies for a new license.

KLITSCHKO FIGHT KNOCKED OUT?

Talks between the Klitschko camp and David Haye camp over a match between the two in the summer have hit a brick wall, it seems, when everything was going according to plan for the former World Boxing Association World Heavyweight Champion, who retired from professional boxing in October last year after his loss to Wladimir Klitschko. Haye, a former Unified Cruiserweight Champion as well, having been The Ring, WBA, WBO and WBC Cruiserweight Champion as well as the European Cruiserweight Champion lost out in his last match by a points’ result against Wladimir Klitschko which led him to hang up his gloves at the tender age of 30 years.

But now it seems that the 31 year old British fighter is ready to return to the ring and everything was going according to plan with Haye ready to face either Wladimir or his brother Vitali, who was the more likely opponent for a match this summer. Although the initial talks between the two camps looked promising, Adam Booth, the manager and trainer of David Haye said that the future of the fight rests in the hands of the Klitschko brothers.

Booth also added that all the points were agreed over the negotiation but what stalled the fight was when Vitali Klitschko came out and said that the fight was still miles away from fruition. Booth’s remark following that statement from Vitali was that they were trying to gain some publicity using Haye’s name. He further stated that they would not waste too much time on getting into the negotiations as they had already been in negotiations with them on four occasions with only match taking place.

However, even if he doesn’t face the Klitschko brothers, it seems that David Haye is ready to come out of retirement for good and take the world by storm again.
