Chisora Spared Jail Ahead Of Klitschko Fight

Derek Chisora got in trouble for an attacking his former girlfriend and escaped a jail sentence which would have ruined his chances from facing WBO/IBF/IBO/RING heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko on December 11th.

Chisora said that he was angry because he suspected his girlfriend of cheating.

Chisora guilty of assaulting his then girlfriend, and sentenced to carry out 150 hours of community service, pay $2,400 in compensation and additional costs. He also received a 12-week suspended jail sentence.  He could face further sanctions though because he now has to appear before the British Boxing Board of Control

Chisora had a previous conviction of assault and Magistrate Quentin Purdy told him, “Your behavior on May 28 was disgraceful and downright humiliating…You clearly have a problem with violence and that has got to stop or your career will be over”.

So the fight with Wladimir is going to happen still assuming Chisora doesn't do anything else to jeopardize this fight...
