BOXING: David Haye Quits Retirement


DAVID HAYE looks set to return to the ring, a few months after announcing his latest retirement following shoulder surgery.
The former world cruiserweight and heavyweight champion put a photo of himself training on Twitter and said: “First session of the year, 2014 is going to be my healthiest, let’s start as we mean to go on.”

Haye came out of a so-called retirement in 2012 to stop Dereck Chisora in the fifth round, and was then set to take on Manuel Charr before pulling out with an injured left hand.

He announced a ‘Battle of Britain’ with Tyson Fury in September, before suffering a deep cut above the eye in sparring one week before it. After that bout was re-set for this February, Haye had shoulder surgery in November and ‘retired’ again.

But he has now been linked with another world-title shot, against Canadian Bermane Stiverne
