David Haye still hopeful over return to ring

David Haye is refusing to give up on the possibility of returning to the ring in the future.

David Haye has admitted that he is still hoping to fully recover from an arm injury which has cast doubt over his future in the ring.

The former WBA heavyweight champion was forced to pull out of a scheduled fight with Tyson Fury after undergoing surgery on his arm back in November, and he claims that he's still unsure whether his professional boxing career is over.

Haye told reporters: "You talk to 10 doctors, 50% say you can make a recovery and 50% say, 'no you're done, you'll never be able to throw a punch again otherwise your arm will fall out of its socket'.

"It's just down to how the rehab takes, I'm doing that every day, I'm doing the best I can. No one knows how long it's going to take, no one knows how it's going to heal.

"At the moment I can't throw a punch, so hopefully in a few months I'll be able to throw one, but you never know."

Haye has not fought since beating Dereck Chisora in July 2012.
