Dereck Chisora apologized “wholeheartedly” Monday for the brawl with David Haye that followed his loss to WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko. “Whilst my behavior was inexcusable, there were many things that went on behind the scenes that ultimately caused my frustrations to boil over,” Chisora said. “Despite all of this, the bottom line is I have let my family, my team and – worst of all – the sport I love down. I acknowledge that my actions were totally unprofessional, with or without provocation. Now, with a cool head and the benefit of hindsight, my actions at the weekend were regrettable to say the least and I am deeply embarrassed.”
