It's on skysports news now that Haye and Chisora are set to fight this summer. Apologies, but I'm on my phone so I can't give a link. How do you see this fight going?

....are they going to fight or just have a debate over who's Mama is so fat and/or ugly?

Haye you muppet

Seeing rumours on other forums and Facebook, apparently there is going to be an announcement on Tuesday.

I have heard so far: Mitchell vs Burns and Groves vs Anderson II on the same bill at Upton Park.

Dan Rafael also said that there will be a Frank Warren announcement on Tuesday.

The interesting thing is apparently there are new laws/rules that have recently come in to effect that mean they do not need to have BBBC licences and they can fight under a commonwealth licence so it wont really matter if the BBBC will re-issue them licences or not. (although if they go down another path they can forget about asking the BBBC for any favours in the future)

could all be a load of bollocks but might explain why Groves pulled out of his WBO shot - hear me out i know it sounds stupid but he has probably been offered a shit load of cash to appear on a big bill in a lower risk fight so makes sense to put up with being messed around a bit.

Oh well lets wait until Tuesday.

This is a heavyweight fight that could be interesting. It's an easy sell to the general public, probably won't be televised outside of Europe though.

Did they give a date?

No. It hasn't been officially announced yet, I guess we'll find out at the press conference. When I saw it on skysports earlier it just said they were set to fight in the summer.

I think this could be a fun fight. If Mitchell-Burns is on the undercard too this could be a cracking night of boxing.

I think it would be televised outside of Europe, Haye has embarrassed himself in the past but him and Chisora got everyone talking after their tussle.

July 14th at Upton Park I have heard.

If it's happening under Warren maybe he has the board on his side and he knows they will both be granted licences in time and Haye will be hit with a hefty fine (if anything at all). Hopefully they have been working on it for a few weeks as it's not that far off and they have been training. Chisora especially as he does pack the pounds on.

Like we didn't see this coming.

History of Haye televised outside Europe:
Haye/Klitschko - Australia / USA 2011
Haye/Valuev - Canada / USA 2009
Haye/Enzo - USA 2008

History of Chisora televised outside Europe
Chisora/Klitschko - Mexico/USA 2012
Chisora/Fury - Canada/USA 2011

I'm excited to see this. I could easily see either guy coming away with the W. I'm guessing EPIX will show the fight in the States. Would be funny to see Rafael call a Haye fight

Believe it or not, the heavyweight division has some interesting & competitive matchups on the horizon starting with Pulev-Dimitrenko tomorrow. Adamek-Chambers in June and Haye-Chisora in July....the division needs more fights like this.

Wasn't chisora banned or something?

The fight makes perfect sense really with all that happened in Germany. Out of the heavyweights that are around this really does have to be one of the best match ups out there in terms of excitment. If it does goes through, with the upton park card I think that would be a brilliant night of British Boxing. This certainly will be more exciting than Klitschko - Thompson 2

Money makes the World go around, it's a very good HW fight need I say more.

Yeah I think its as very good fight & a natural to make

Haye wins it though

It's a decent enough fight. I hope Chisora glasses him at the press conference.
