De Mori Could Retire If He Defeats Haye

Australian heavyweight Mark de Mori says that even if he defeats against David Haye on January 16 there is every chance he could retire.

The 33 year-old, who faces Haye at the O2 in London in nine days time, has revealed that even if he springs a huge shock against the former WBA heavyweight, it could be his last fight.

"If I win, there is more chance that it will be my last fight," De Mori told Sky Sports. "If I lose there is more chance I’ll keep on going, because I will want to prove [something].

"If I win, you’ve got to understand my position in boxing, it’s not to be famous and to be in the spotlight. That is a little bit of fun when I was growing up.

"Nowadays I’m looking more of it from a business standpoint and so I can look in the mirror when I’m an old man without regrets. I’ve got to pick some point to stop. To knock out a guy like David Haye and retire on a high point, I think would be the most intelligent move."
