Boxer loses fight, then totally loses it

Dereck Chisora was detained by Germany officials Sunday after he attacked former WBA heavyweight champ David Haye at the news conference following his unanimous decision loss to Vitali Klitschko. Wait, what?

As caught on video, Chisora and his crew got sick of Haye's taunting following the fight, and chaos ensued. Amid the fisticuffs, during which Haye allegedly wielded a tripod as a weapon, Chisora is said to have threatened to "shoot [Haye] in the street" and "bu him." Haye's manager reportedly suffered a severe facial injury. NewsCore reports that Chisora was detained by at the Munich airport.

The clash was the latest less-than-sporting moment for the British Chisora, who slapped Klitschko at their Friday weigh-in, eaing a $50,000 fine, and then, immediately before their fight spit in his face.
