David Haye: I’ve proved my point by knocking out Dereck Chisora!

Former WBA heavyweight champion David Haye knocked out his archrival Dereck Chisora last Saturday night at the West Ham Upton Park Stadium in east London, in front of a crowd of over 30,000 people and he believes he has proved himself once again.

Chisora, former British heavyweight champion, was sent tumbling to the canvas for the first time in his career, when Haye ended his brave assault with a vicious left hook.

In the post-fight press conference, the 31-year-old brash Londoner, who is more commonly known as the Hayemaker, revealed that he just wanted to convey a message to Vitali Klitschko, who was pushed to the full distance by Chisora in February in Munch.

Haye desperately wants to set up a potential fight with Vitali but he feels the Ukrainian will never make such a mistake.

Haye said, “Vitali doesn’t want to fight me. Look what I did against Chisora and look what he did against him,” he said. “Why would a 40-year-old man fight someone as young, fresh and powerful as me?.

“Vitali’s a politician and he’ll find a way to get out of the fight. If you were one of his advisors, someone who has invested millions in him to become mayor of Kiev, would you tell him to fight me? I know what I’d do if I was one of his advisors because I’m a very dangerous fighter, someone who’s proved his punching power against someone who pushed him to the wire. The whole idea of this fight was to get a measuring stick to show how I perform against the same opponent. I’ve proved my point.”

Haye suffered a humiliating defeat at the hands of Vitali’s younger brother Wladimir last year, after which he came up with an excuse that he had an injured toe. Nevertheless, his explosive performance against Chisora has certainly helped many out there blur the memories of his defeat.
