For me the most surprising aspect of today’s announcements is not that Haye-Chisora is going ahead under the auspices of the Luxembourg Boxing Association – something like that has been mooted for a while. However, I did not expect to see the WBA World Heavyweight Title fight between Alexander Povetkin and Hasim Rahman placed on the undercard!

So, we’ve now got to the stage that a respected world heavyweight title fight can’t top the bill and, even more bizarrely, the winner of Haye-Chisora is then expected to go on and fight the winner of the WBA title fight.
