DERECK CHISORA is back in the world title mix – thanks to his opponent Malik Scott getting his numbers mixed up.
The British heavyweight claimed a somewhat bizarre sixth-round win over previously unbeaten American Scott at Wembley Arena on Saturday.
Chisora immediately set his sights on a rematch with WBC champ Vitali Klitschko, who claimed a unanimous points win over him in February 2012.
He was helped to victory by the poor judgement of Scott, who was knocked to the canvas with a powerful overhand right.
The 32-year-old thought he had beat the count when he climbed to his feet and looked set to carry on, but he mis-timed his move and referee Victor Loughlin waved the fight off.
Scott said: “I counted to eight and rose and was ready to resume fighting. Everyone knows that if you are up at eight, you beat the count of 10.”

Do you realize how irrational that is? Why pay both for something that looks fishy? Pay Scott to take a more convincing dive. Its controversy is proof of its legitimacy, if anything.
Because for Scott to lose in that manner, he still can say down the road"they robbed me"
and act as if he is undefeated still. If you think that fight dont get fixed, then
you are just another, in a herd of sheep,who blindly agree with everthing
Wladimir might be a possibility now, but not Vitali. Stiverne will likely be Vitali's last fight, and honestly I don't think Vitali will be healthy enough to fight him in December.
I want to see Wlad vs. Chisora. I don't think Chisora wins or anything, I still want to see it though.
I want to see this as well. He may lose, but he comes with a good attitude, and is not afraid of Wlad which is more than you can say about pretty much any of Wlad's other opponents (not his fault btw).
Sounds realistic. Although he could give Haye a shot next year.
Purse bid is supposed to be today on Stiverne Vitali. I heard they'll rush it and have it in September. I'd say there's a 85% chance he'll fight at least Stiverne again, and if so, 50/50 he'll fight at least one more opponent after that. I'd love to see him fight the winner of Fury Haye. THAT would be a great win to retire on.
So the hypejob starts...Fans forget that while most fights are real,
the 'dive' is still a thing that happens. Boxers spar 100's of rounds,
so it can look real as hell until the "moment". Scott & Ref got paid,
And Chiz is now back in the mix..if it smells like fish,dont eat it

Scott seems like a cool guy. He gives his credit to Derek and you have to respect that.
He thought he was up early, the ref thought he was done - that's it. There's no conspiracy to be found here.
If he was wanted they would have extradited him by now. I can't remember the technical aspects of it but there is a duty imposed on members of the EU to assist one another in matters of crime, that means sending over criminals so they can face trial/investigation.
I'm sure that's the case but I suspect the incident may not have been deemed serious enough for them to pursue extradition. The last report is that they were wanted for questioning.
Both men face an investigation in Germany. According to prosecutors there, Chisora could yet be charged with malicious injuring and making a "threat" – both offences for which custodial sentences are possible. Prosecutors are considering a "grievous bodily harm" charge for Haye, for which he could face up to 10 years in prison.
Wolfgang Wenger, a spokesperson for Munich police, said: "We want to talk to Haye. The prosecutor will decide how to get hold of him, whether this will happen in England or here. The investigations are under way and these need time and thoroughness."
He continued: "It wasn't very easy to see what exactly happened. From what we can see in the videos it seems to be a case of assault, as well as suspicion of grievous bodily harm, because perhaps a bottle or tripod was also used to hit someone. This is grievous bodily harm. A threat would be if an actual threat was made to the life of another. This still needs to be clarified."
I think the Klitschkos said they would never fight Chisora again although Wlad v Chisora is a fight I'd like to see (Smoger as ref).
However, I think Chisora might well still be wanted by law enforcement in Germany.

Did you notice that Scott looked at his corner and nodded moments before getting up and being waved off?

If that happened, it would be a clear duck by Vitali.
However, Chisora is likely to land Wlad after he's done with Povetkin. January 2014, i'm sure they'll fight. They have unfinished business.

I don't see Vitali rematching Chisora but it would be funny if he did and froze David Haye out again.
