SHAMED heavyweight Dereck Chisora admits his behaviour on Saturday night was 'inexcusable'.
Chisora, 28, was caught up in an ugly brawl with fellow Brit David Haye following his defeat to WBC world champion Vitali Klitschko in Munich.
The Finchley slugger was questioned by German police before being released without charge and allowed to return to the capital.
And Del Boy insists he regrets his part in the shameful scenes which will be investigated by the British Board of Boxing Control.
Chisora, who faces a possible life ban from boxing, said: "I feel I must wholeheartedly apologise for my part in the regrettable scenes both before and after what was to be the biggest night of my career.
"Whilst my behaviour was inexcusable, there were many things that went on behind the scenes that ultimately caused my frustrations to boil over.
"However, this is of course no excuse. I cannot go into the specific details at the moment as, quite rightly, the BBBofC will be investigating this matter and also the altercation that took place between Haye and myself, where I was struck by a bottle.
"Despite all of this, the bottom line is I have let my family, my team and worst of all the sport I love down.
"I acknowledge that my actions were totally unprofessional, with or without provocation. Now, with a cool head and the benefit of hindsight, my actions at the weekend were regrettable to say the least and I am deeply embarrassed at the scenes reported in the media.
"I acknowledge that I have a duty as a professional boxer to conduct myself properly at all times, especially with boxing being a sport of controlled aggression.
