David Haye will fight Dereck Chisora at Upton Park in July
David Haye and Dereck Chisora will, after all, fight at Upton Park on 14 July – with gloves but without the sanction of the British Boxing Board of Control.
While the contest – for no title but a great deal of money – will give Frank Warren’s BoxNation subscription channel a considerable boost, it comes as a major surprise to the boxing establishment in the UK and is unlikely to win the approval of people shocked by the fighter’s unscheduled midnight brawl in Munich three months ago.
