REPORTS: Derek Chisora Announces Split-Up with Manager David Haye

Heavyweight boxer Derek Chisora has shocked several fans by parting ways with his long-time manager and former world champion David Haye. The news is upsetting for many, but Chisora appears optimistic about making this drastic move. Despite running on a two-fight losing streak, ‘War’ has expressed positivity about his upcoming career.

However, all of it would happen without ‘Haymaker’ by his side. Meanwhile, Chisora and Haye don’t seem to have ruined their relationship. The split-up may just be a professional decision as both men seemingly retain a healthy friendship. Derek Chisora posted a picture of him and David Haye to break the news and shared his views on the whole scenario.

In a lengthy caption, the British heavyweight boxer revealed how he began his journey with David Haye, thereby evolving as a fighter. He even demeaned his last two fight’s outcomes and tagged them as robberies. That said, the 37-year-old seems interested to have a couple of fights in 2021.

As a professional, Chisora’s 37-11-0 record may not look very impressive. However, he is one of the best punchers in the division and can rightly enter the championship ride.
