The former world heavyweight champion David Haye says he will apply for a British boxing licence in a bid to secure a fight with WBC holder Vitali Klitschko.

Haye used a licence from the Luxembourg Boxing Federation when he came out of retirement and beat fellow Briton Dereck Chisora in a non-title fight in July.

"This is the only fight that interests me at heavyweight and the WBC world heavyweight title is the one belt I'm desperate to win before I retire for good," said Haye.
