German Police were this morning interviewing Dereck Chisora as a part of an official investigation into the events of last night's post-fight press conference brawl with David Haye.

A Munich Criminal Police spokesman told Press Association Sport that Chisora, and his trainer Don Charles, had been taken from the city's airport to Police headquarters in Munich for questioning.

The spokesman confirmed also that Police were still searching for Haye, who was not present at the hotel when they sought to question him this morning.

Both boxers were involved in a bloody altercation during last night's press conference after Chisora lost to Vitali Klitschko on a points decision following their WBC heavyweight title fight.

"Police picked up Mr Chisora at the airport at approximately 10.30am (German time) and are bringing him in for the investigation," the spokesman said.

"They also picked up Mr Chisora's trainer for questioning.

"The Police went to the hotel to speak to them but we had been informed they had just checked out."

Haye's location, however, remains unknown by the local authorities.

"At present we do not know where Mr Haye is," he added.

"We are currently looking for him. He was not at the hotel this morning and we have not seen him at the airport."

After losing a brave 12-round decision to Klitschko in Munich, Chisora mocked the onlooking Haye for his poor performance against Klitschko's brother Wladimir last year and tried to goad his rival into a future bout.

Chisora then confronted Haye during the press conference and the two men grappled around the room with onlookers and entourages getting involved. Chisora was seemingly heard making threats and claiming to have been "glassed".

Haye is then captured on Press Association video footage trading punches with Charles before swinging a large camera tripod over his head at Charles.

Moments later Chisora re-appears brandishing a glass bottle but is wrestled under control.

Haye's manager Adam Booth somehow suffered a nasty cut on his forehead and also claimed to have been "glassed".

Police arrived as the incident calmed down and were on hand as Chisora eventually left the arena some time later.

After putting up a decent showing against Klitschko, Chisora appeared to be trying to goad Haye into a high-profile fight between the two Londoners.

"David, you and me can get it on in London. Be quiet," Chisora said.

"David Haye is an embarrassment. He messed up Box Office (Sky Sports) for all the young fighters and I'm going to give him two slaps for that.

"If David Haye is a fighter he should fight me. Let's fight, me and you."

"David, how's your toe?" Chisora repeatedly shouted at Haye, referring to the injury he blamed his loss to Wladimir Klitschko on.

Haye, ignoring a low-key win for Chisora last year, retorted: "You've had three losses in a row (sic)." Chisora then said: "Do you want to tell me to my face? Tell me to my face!"

Chisora then left the stage, approached Haye and went nose-to-nose before the brawl began which lasted at least five minutes.

While the Klitschkos stood and watched, Haye eventually left the scene while Booth, with blood running down his face, shouted at Chisora: "Derek, man-to-man, I want to know who glassed me. Someone hit me with a bottle."

Chisora answered: "Did you see me with a glass?"

Chisora was, in fact, seen with a bottle in his hand, but he was wrestled away by a security guard.

After being confronted by Booth, Chisora told Haye's trainer-manager: "If you and David want it (the fight), then we can do it. Either in the ring or outside the ring. You let me know. I want it.

"You tell him; his entourage has got nothing on my entourage. I'm going to find him.

"Your boy had a bottle."

Even by boxing's often chaotic standards the unsavoury incident was shocking, drawing gasps and cries of alarm as those involved fell about the room, knocking equipment over.

Chisora's promoter Frank Warren, who was at the press conference, labelled the brawl "ridiculous and stupid".

"It was unacceptable. It was stupid," he told BBC Fadio 5 Live.

"It doesn't do anyone any favours. It was ridiculous.

"It was a very charged atmosphere. It just got out of hand."

Warren also called for an inquiry into the scuffle, adding: "It was something that we can do without in boxing.

"I'd like to see the apropriate inquiry take place.

"People with cool and calm heads need to look at the footage. It was disgusting.

"David should have let Dereck have his moment after what was a gallant performance."

British Boxing Board of Control general secretary Robert Smith indicated the governing body would launch an investigation.

"It was extremenly disappointing and disgusting really," he said.

"There will be hearing. I've seen the footage this morning and it doesn't do the sport any good, or Britain. It was like 'Brits abroad'.

"The first thing we need to do is find out the facts.

"I will be contacting the German authorities and now the police to get the facts tomorrow.

"I can't say much more at this stage."

People used to talk about Haye, but damn Chisora is waaaaay worse. This guy's a thug and don't deserve to be in the sport or even in society apparently. At least Haye did some justice and connected a punch to his chin.

Two beatings in one night. That's some bad luck.

we need less of that in boxing, more great classy fighters like Manny and Ko's brothers.

Stay classy Chisora...

I must say that was interesting.

I thought that was pretty awesome tbh. Better than a normal presser. Every once in a while these things are very entertaining and this sets up a chisora vs haye grudge match!

boxing is back in its PRIME

Man, Dereck is such a fucking G. Unreal. War Del Boy. Haye a bitch.

I loved Wlads reaction when he was spitted in the face, what a man.

In my opinion, yes Derick Chisora is a shitty person and a thug, but as fight fans we have to accept our role as enablers, or else find a different sport.

Haye is a diva. He's only in this sport in order to con the public into buying his shitty fights, or at least such is the perception after his one-of-the-most-pathetic-performances-of-all-time against Wladimer.

But the situation obviously deteriorated when Chisora went to confront Haye face to face. Were this WWE, or UFC, or something, they would have had a marketing show in front of cameras (maybe what Chisora was going for originally) but instead a fight happened.

Haye is a bitch for glassing Dereck and coming at him with that tripod.

Damn, that was crazy.

Here's hoping Sonnen hasn't picked up any new tricks.
