Frank Warren on the verge of losing his license – Boxing News
Frank Warren is on the verge of losing his license as he is promoting Chisora vs. Haye grudge match. The fight between Chisora and Haye is an unlicensed one since none of the fighters are British licensed boxers. Haye does not hold a British license whereas
Chisora’s license has been cancelled by the BBBC (British Board of Boxing Control).
According to Robert smith, secretary of the BBBC, “This is a huge challenge to the Board of Control, and everything we stand for. Obviously, we will have to deal with it accordingly within the law. As it stands, Haye and Chisora are quite clearly not currently
licensed by the Board. Neither of them has made an application. We would therefore not sanction a fight between them. But until the announcement comes along, it is only speculation as to what Mr Warren is going to do. I don’t know the ins and outs of European
law on this matter, but we will be looking into it if necessary.”
The BBBC has already warned officials against participating in the event. Last week, the BBBC issued a warning letters to promoters, managers and other fighters. The BBBC clearly said that any official who takes part in the event would have his license cancelled.
On the other hand, Vitali Klitschko called the grudge match between Chisora and Haye a ‘freak show with freak rules’. Many are already assuming that this fight will be gruesome and the results would be shameful for the entire boxing fraternity. Since Chisora
and Haye both are known for their rage and their anger management issues, analysts believe this fight will go beyond the norms.
Dereck Chisora has already warned Haye against making any excuses. Haye lost to Wladimir Klitschko last year and made an excuse of an injured toe for his under par performance. Keeping this in mind, Chisora said that if Haye makes any excuses after losing
to him, he would get a rematch.
On the other hand, David Haye believes he will beat Chisora easily. In his recent interview, Haye called Chisora a ‘moron’ and said he will beat the ‘h**l out of him’.
