Chisora Slaps Klitschko at Weigh-in; What was he thinking?
By Les Dowgier
At today’s weigh-in for tomorrow’s heavyweight title fight in Munich, challenger Dereck Chisora, a Union Jack bandana covering the lower part of his face, slapped the reigning champ Vitali Klitschko across the face as the two fighters were staring down. A bit of chaos immediately followed as the two fighters were separated, with a visibly angered Klitschko yelling, "You are f**d now, Chisora, you are now really f**d!"
In the ensuing aftermath, WBC President Jose Sulaiman fined Chisora $50,000, calling the actions an, “absolute disgrace” and, “totally unacceptable.”* Chisora’s own trainer, Don Charles, dubbed the actions, “utterly unacceptable,” while David Haye’s trainer, Adam Booth stated that this was, “professional suicide.”
But the question remains, what was he thinking? Or was he thinking at all?
