If boxing gave belts for bringing shame on the sport and your country, these two would rule the world.

Disgrace.
Wherever he is in Munich, just throw away the key.
When I saw it on the TV this morning I was not sure if Klitschko was laughing or just pure embarrassed. ?

The pair of them are a complete embarrassment to the sport.
I've always thought the Klitschko's got lucky. I think they hit their peak when there was very little around to challenge them. But they can only fight what's in front of them and if these two are indicative of the state of heavyweight boxing, Klitschko will still be champ when he's 50.

Meanwhile the Klitschko Team watched the whole scene unfold with bemused smiles on their faces. Boente stated, “With the bad experience we’ve had with British fighters we will now look for other countries.”

| Glad Henry didnt have to see that !!!Haye well i said all i want to on him but man chisora he is something else i think he should be banned from boxing indefinately he has a screw loose.As for a fight between him and Haye no fucukin way enough damage to brit heavyweights already!!! But for the record i think haye would do him in a proper fight but it would not be that way it would end in a disqualification with a mass brawl and serious injuries to people from which brit boxing probably would never recover. I expect warren will push for it though.Like them or loathe them the klits are a credit to boxing and their country.

Funny how Warren seems to be condemning the altercation, but seemed to be fuelling it at the time.
A sorry episode for British boxing. When you think of not just Henry Cooper, but Frank Bruno, Lennox Lewis, Ricky Hatton etc. All decent boxers and good sportsmen who respected their opponents.
Chisora is a national embarrassment, and Haye, who I have previously defended, is no better. He now just looks like an old pro who is looking for a fihgt....any fight that can get him back to the big time. I guess that Haye is thinking......Chisora did ok against Klitchko......I can beat Chisora...........that will force Klitchko's hand to offer me a fight. It's sad really, because Haye at Cruiserweight was a phenominal fighter. He should have stayed there. As Hatton found out, that small step up in weight is a massive jump in class.

Not just last night's rubbish between Haye and Chisora but all Chisora's pre fight antic's were a disgrace, nothing to do with the art of boxing IMO.
Being even more cynical, the pre fight stupidity from Chisora was most likely an effort to drum up subscription to a new boxing channel, according to the figure's I'd heard the uptake was very low in comparison to equivalent Sky\HBO events.
Frank Warren is Chisora's promoter and he is 'disgusted' by his client and David Haye's actions, he has however managed to make every interview with every media outlet who stuck a camera in front of him both last night and today. The fact is the only way to sell tickets for a potential fight between two guys who have no titles is to sell it as a bad blood fight, 2 guys who want to rip eachother to shreads. Haye and Chisora were probably laughing their heads off over a beer last night!

| Boxnation had to air the fight for free because there was a fault with their subscription service.

As predicted a couple of months ago. Anybody who watches this wants their heads looking at. Neither of them is any good, neither of them has a title but the 'disgusted' Frank Warren of a couple of months ago is sorting the fight out anyway.
Are people really stupid enough to have any interest in this?

A non-event if you ask me. Haye should have stayed at the weight he was good at. By not doing so, it ruined his rep.
I'd rather watch a Bolton game than watch these two fight.
