Vitali offers to punish brawling Brit
Vitali Klitschko wants to fight Dereck Chisora again – to punish the bad-mannered, brawling Briton.
The WBC heavyweight champion, who beat Chisora on points last weekend, said in Berlin on Tuesday he wanted to grant Chisora a rematch.
He would like to punish Chisora for his part in the shocking brawl with David Haye, Klitschko said.
"I'd like to knock him out in the ring. The bill has not been paid," the Ukrainian said.
"He must be sick in the head; when you think of all he has done ... the slap in the face, spitting at Wladimir (Klitschko) in the ring, then fighting at the press conference and threatening to shoot someone.
"How can anyone behave like that? I can't believe it. What is in this guy's head? Everything I have seen of him is just a nightmare."
Chisora, 28, and Haye, 31, are under investigation by German police, who have said they could face prison sentences or fines.
Chisora slapped Vitali Klitschko in the face at the pre-fight weigh-in and spat water in the face of his brother Wladimir just before the bout.
'THIS MAN DESERVES REAL PUNISHMENT'
Vitali, known as Dr Ironfist, said he was appalled by Chisora's behaviour. "In spirit, I have no need for revenge, but my ego tells me this man deserves real punishment. I want to knock him out in the ring," the Ukrainian has told a German daily, Die Welt.
Chisora could face a life ban when he appears before a British Boxing Board of Control hearing on March 14. That would rule out a fight against anyone.
Thomas Puetz, president of Germany's Professional Boxers Federation, wants Chisora to be banned from fighting. He called Chisora a “public menace”.
Both Chisora and Haye have issued apologies, but the fall-out from their brawl is likely to last some time.
Klitschko, 40, damaged his left shoulder during the fight and will take six to eight weeks off.
However, he has said he would like to fight Chisora again, preferably before the June 8 start of the soccer tournament Euro 2012, to be co-hosted by his home country.
Having seen Chisora leave the media conference stage to confront Haye, who was a member of a television team, Klitschko said he was shocked to hear the pair trade insults and blows.
Chisora was heard shouting he wanted to shoot Haye.
"I saw it all from the stage, I thought I was in some kind of film," said Klitschko. "Sooner or later in life a man gets his just punishment.
"You can't behave like that as an athlete or as a normal person. It was lower than low. I thought it was a play act and just for show, but then I realised that it wasn't.
Vitali had been tipped to defend his title against Haye in Germany this June, but the Ukrainian said he was just as unimpressed with the former champion, who lost to Wladimir last July.
"They are both cut from the same cloth. What I have said about Chisora, also applies to Haye," said Klitschko.
