Joey Barton reveals that he would not watch David Haye take on Dereck Chisora even if the fight were in his back garden.

Queens Park Rangers midfielder Joey Barton has provided a negative reaction after learning that British boxers David Haye and Dereck Chisora will meet in the ring later this year.

The pair clashed at a press conference in Munich back in February which resulted in Chisora having his boxing licence revoked.

However, having been granted a licence from a governing body in Luxembourg, Chisora will now take on Haye at Upton Park on Saturday, July 14.

"Just heard on the radio that the showdown of the century! The heavyweight knobhead of the world fight is on at Upton Park," Barton wrote on Twitter.

"I wouldn't open the curtains if those to nuggets were scrapping in my back garden."

David Haye will be coming out of retirement to fight his fellow Brit.
