Dereck Chisora opens up about his heavyweight defeat to David Haye last weekend.

Dereck Chisora has opened up about his heavyweight defeat to David Haye last weekend.

The Finchley fighter, who went down in the fifth round, paid tribute to his opponent and vowed to bounce back.

"That was a great fight," Chisora said. "I got caught, I don't know what with, but it was a great shot. This is boxing – there has to be one winner. I will come back."

Chisora's trainer Don Charles echoed the fighter's sentiments, tipping him to pick himself up and win a world title within the next two years.

"I really do believe he will hold a heavyweight world title within the next two years," he added. "If I didn't feel that way then I would advise him to retire.

"Frank Bruno kept falling at the last hurdle and he eventually became a heavyweight world champion, while Lennox Lewis got knocked out twice and still ended up being undisputed champion of the world.

"But I would advise him to have a bit of a break from boxing. He's had so many hard fights in the past 12 months, and I think he needs three or four months off to recharge his batteries."

Haye and Chisora's much-hyped grudge match was sanctioned by the Luxembourg Boxing Federation after the British Boxing Board of Control refused to offer its support.
