Boxing: Vitali eager to ‘punish’ Chisora

BERLIN: World heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko wants to grant Dereck Chisora a rematch to ‘punish’ the British fighter for his part in the shocking brawl in Munich with David Haye at the weekend. Even before their heavyweight title bout, Chisora slapped Vitali in the face at the pre-fight weigh-in and spat water in the face of his brother Wladimir. Vitali said he was appalled by Chisora’s behaviour. “In spirit, I have no need for revenge, but my ego tells me that this man deserves real punishment,” said Vitali. “He must be sick in the head. Everything I have seen of him is just a nightmare.”
