David Haye set for July return?

David Haye has reportedly decided to return to the ring this July and pursue a world-title tilt with Vitali Klitschko by fighting to become his mandatory challenger.

Haye was last in action against Dereck Chisora, whom he knocked out in five rounds to settle a domestic grudge at Upton Park.

Despite chasing a clash with Klitschko for nearly 12 months the Ukrainian has refused to entertain the idea of fighting the 'Hayemaker'.

The 32-year-old will come out of partial retirement to face a heavyweight contender on July 6 in London and begin the road to challenging for Klitschko's WBC crown, according to the Daily Mail.

Haye is a former heavyweight and cruiserweight king, with 26 wins and two defeats on his professional record.
