The Zimbabewe-born English Boxer Dereck Chisora who announced his retirement after his defeat to David Haye, has changed his mind just two weeks later.

Promoter Frank Warren accepted Dereck’s decision without argument before the 29-year-old changed his mind planning to  return to the ring against undefeated Italian heavyweight champion Matteo Modugno on November 30 at the Copper Box Arena.

“I went away and kept thinking about it, though, and two weeks later I went back to Frank and we signed a new contract,” Chisora said.

“My mum told me you can’t do this if you don’t give it 100 per cent, and that’s exactly right. But I remembered when I started amateur boxing and the impression I wanted to make, and that drove me back into it.”
