David Haye risks another betting controversy!

Former WBA heavyweight champion David Haye locked many headlines in the country, when is stopped Audley Harrison in the third round in November 2010. The Brit was heavily criticised by almost everyone after he revealed that he had advised friends and family to bet on him winning in the third.

This time the 31-year-old Brash Londoner, who is more commonly known as the Hayemaker, is sparking another betting controversy by hinting that he will ‘check the odds’ before knocking out Dereck Chisora in the ring.

Haye literally came down to blows with Chisora last February in Munich, when he clashed with him at a post-fight press conference which followed Chisora’s twelve-round unanimous defeat to Vitali Klitschko.

Both pugilists don’t have a boxing license now yet they will take on each other in the ring on July 14 at the West Ham Upton Park Stadium in east London, thanks to the Luxemburg Board of Boxing Control.

This fight is one of the most eagerly awaited fights out there. However, Haye has said that he will look at the bookmakers’ prices before lock horns with Chisora.

“People are going to be quite surprised from the opening bell. They’re going to be pleasantly surprised. If he’s lucky enough to hear the bell for the end of the first round he will realise, ‘I’ve never been hit this hard before’.

“The same as when he got buzzed in the first round against Robert Helenius in December, he will get it 15 times against me. I will knock him out whatever round he wants. I will have to check the odds first.

“He’s different to anyone I’ve fought with his particular style because I’ve been fighting at world level and people with his style don’t usually get to that level. He’s a pressure fighter – like John Ruiz – and I put him on his ass in 25 seconds.”

Well, all said and done, Haye is looking pretty confident right now as he believes Chisora is not in his league but only time will tell who will be the last man smiling.
