Video: Dereck Chisora Brawl With David Haye After Chisora Vs. Klitschko

PrintAfter losing a hard-fought decision to Vitali Klitschko, Dereck Chisora managed to get into a wild brawl with David Haye at the post-fight press conference. We've already described the mayhem and now we've got video.
Haye threw the first punch after boiling over with frustration after being repeatedly insulted by Chisora who vowed to fight more aggressively against Vitali than Haye did against Wladimir last year. Chisora lost it and threatened to shoot Haye and apparently struck Haye's manager Adam Booth.
The BBC describes the action:
...during the press conference, Bernd Boente, the Klitschko's manager said: "With the bad experience we've had with British fighters we will now look for other countries.
"Contrary to David Haye, Dereck Chisora really went for it and really tried."
Haye, who was at the back of the room, said: "You don't want to fight David Haye, no?"
Boente replied: "You had an offer, you didn't accept it, now you are out. You are out. Out, out, out. You cannot talk yourself back into the fight, you have no belts. Chisora showed heart, contrary to you. You showed your toe
[Haye claimed he broke a toe before the fight]."
Chisora and his promoter Frank Warren then appeared to goad Haye into an all-British fight, with Chisora repeatedly saying "How's your toe?"
Haye hit back that Chisora was a loser, prompting Chisora to leave the stage and confront Haye, sparking the brawl.
At one point Haye picked up and swung a tripod and Booth, who was trying to break things up, was left with a wounded face.
Looks like there is a tiny bit of life in boxing's heavyweight division. Too bad the action inside the ring doesn't match the action outside the ring.

Boxe sucks, they talk a ton and fight so little...
Bunch of tough guys, when it comes to fight time, they try to see who jabs their way into a decision win, the managers are even worst.
I have such renewed respect for David Price. Way to stand out as the quiet gentlemen operator when it comes to British heavyweights.
I've lost respect for Haye & Chisora.

I saw no strikes attempted by Chisora
at least four by haye
one left hook, one right hook (with bottle), one left hook, one double overhand (with camera stand)
haye took this
the camera men didn’t respect the ground game enough to film it properly
those philistines
holy shit that was crazy

i’m by no means implying this was planned, because it wasn’t. but what this did do is sell a future fight. i’d watch haye vs chisora simply based on this story line, and i’m pretty sure i’m not the only one.

Haye had a beer bottle in his hand (fist) when he threw the first punch,
He then later in the melee grabbed a camera tripod and swung it at Chisora, missed his target (surprise!!!) and clonged his own manager with the tripod…

it appears he did hit him with a bottle

They all wanted the picture.
Just listen to all the shutters going off once the brawl starts.
Share for share, share alike, you'll get struck each time I strike.
I’m conflicted. I’m extremely proud of being British right now for FINALLY lighting a fire into the HW division. And at the same time, I’m fucking ashamed that it took this kinda thug bullshit for people to care.

that both British dudes failed respectively, they just good at shooting at the mouth and breaking bottles as seen in this vid, them winning that strap is what supposed to make you proud.
I completely agree with that. They aren’t as good as the Klits, and it’s all a big mirage. But they’re getting people to care for once, even with the BS antics. Haye/Chisora will be MASSIVE in England.

What the fuck did they think was going to happen
when Chisora grabs the mic, stands up and starts heading toward Haye to confront him….I think this was a bit of a stunt
"In America, first you get the sugar, then you get the power, then you get the women" -Homer Simpson
Why would no one stop him?
When fighters go to confront each other then chances are that they’re gonna start fighting.
It’s crazy how many people in the room are completely ignoring it; the reaction here would be way different. I think they’re so convinced Haye and Chisora are just promoting a future fight in the UK nobody even realizes Chisora gets glassed (can we all start using that?)
Waiting for another great Diaz quote so I can get it in my sig first.

Glassed
Glassing has been going on for years in the UK – mainly in pub/bar fights. A bottle to the head counts but the traditional method is to smash the end of a pint glass on a table then thrust it into the victim’s face – usually causing horrific permanent facial scarring if not death.
Haye will be lucky if he doesn’t face charges for that. He threw the first strike and it was a bottle to the face which could’ve potentially killed Chisora (the broken neck of the bottle is close to Chisora’s carotid artery in that pic).
As for why no one stopped Chisora…are you fucking serious?
To me it looks like the bottle never broke, he just had it in hand and decided to hit Chisora with it. Dirty move, but I can’t say I wouldn’t do the same if I was enraged and three big guys come to confront me like that.

people don't usually break bottles beforehand, it can do more damage intact
blunt force and cutting combined
There are glass fragments floating next to Chisora's head in the picture.
I’m pretty sure Haye broke the bottle on his skull.
Maybe.. looks like water / fluids to me

If the bottle broke Chisora would be bleeding like a stuffed pig, and he would end up in the hospital. There was no reports of him being hurt.
Plus, you can clearly see from the picture that the bottle missed the head and it drink floating in the air.

I had some crazy shit go down once
and tried to break a Jones soda bottle to defend myself.
After knocking it off the curb(and a few other objects), I realized that it wasn’t going to break. And it was better that way.

haye had no business opening his mouth in post-fight presser who had nothing to do with him.
both of them looked like uneducated bums.
Because boxing is turning into a joke.
As far as I can find, however he had lost two of his last three, the losses being both title fights.
Never give up!
Boxing is a disgrace
The sport of boxing is a disgrace to combat sports. This incident could have, and should have never stopped before it ever started. Is it common for everyone to be drinking at a post fight press conference? Why is this story on BE in the first place, it’s embarrassing to watch.
Entourage?
“Your entourage aint got nothin on my entourage” This coming after repeatedly saying he was going to shoot him. I think that sums the whole thing up pretty well. If they all weren’t arrested they should have been.
Thugs with accents.
Oh wait! Boxing CAN still be entertaining! Such a stark contrast of sportsmanship between boxing and MMA.
