    IMO.....I think the whole thing a publicity stunt working well to build up a megafight for either brother vs the winner. Wlad taking Chisora or Vitali taking Haye.

    All in all this will give Haye another big payday win or lose and give Chisora's 15 minutes of fame some legs.

    I don't think they behaved well, but is it the first press conference brawl. I mean cmon, this is boxing and Suleiman should condemn the actions, but let the guys earn their living.

    A 6 month revocation of their WBC ratings or their licences from their country would have been sufficient enough to send a message while at the same time allowing the guys to hype their fight.

    Stupid move by Sulieman interfering indirectly with Vitali's retirement payday.:think

    The WBC move won't go down well with EU competition law....It would be hilarious if the WBC were banned from holding title fights in Europe because of their stance. The fight will apparently have the WBA and WBO intercintinental baubles on the line....so **** the WBC.

    This is the correct move. Chisora's license was pulled as punishment. If Luxumborg wants to host the fight then let them. The "dick move" here was ****** going there to get the license.

    Yeah I agree with you there. However, the board were messing them around, delaying the hearing was a poor move. At the end of the day, Chisora's a professional, he needs to make a living, they just banned him indefinitely.

    It looks more and more likely that the fight won't happen, which is a shame, as the fans want it, but politics always takes precedent :(
