Heavyweight boxer banned

JEJU (South Korea), Nov 3 Battered heavyweight contender Chris Arreola will have plenty of time to nurse his wounds following defeat at the hands of Vitali Klitschko after boxing chiefs on Tuesday banned the fighter for swearing.

The American was in an emotional state after his corner had stopped the Sept 26 fight after the 10th round.

Tears flowed freely as he thanked the crowd and the boxer later relied on some industrial language to express his intent to hit back following the defeat.—Reuters
