Undefeated Dereck Chisora believes he can persuade WBA heavyweight champion David Haye to postpone his plan to retire this coming October. Since 2009, Haye has vowed to retire by October of this year. Chisora thinks the possibility of earning a huge check with an all-British battle is enough to keep Haye around.
Chisora has a very tall order ahead in Germany. He challenges the best heavyweight in the game on April 30, WBO/IBF/IBO champion Wladimir Klitschko. Chisora is a very big underdog, although he guarantees a win. If he beats Klitschko, Chisora wants to unify the titles with Haye.
'If he doesn't retire then I could fight him,' Chisora said. 'I think he would postpone retirement to fight me. He hasn't earned much money in the game so yeah, why not?'
