Parties at the final stage of the contract
WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and British heavyweight Derek Chisora can re-enter the ring in a face-to-face fight.
The parties are negotiating a fight and are at the final stage. The fight could take place at the end of 2022 – December 3 in the UK.
For Fury and Chisora, this could be the third face-to-face confrontation in their careers. Before that, the Gypsy King defeated Derek twice – in 2011 and 2014.
Promoter Eddie Hearn stated that Chisora had already received a contract to fight Fury. However, Derek himself recently denied information about the fight with Tyson.
Tyson was supposed to fight with Briton Anthony Joshua, but the parties failed to agree on the terms and sign a contract for the fight. Fury’s side says that AJ’s promoter Eddie Hearn is to blame for the disruption of the fight.
Tyson’s father, John Fury, said his son is considering three candidates to replace Joshua: Filip Hrgovic, Andy Ruiz and Luis Ortiz.
In the last fight, Chisora defeated Kubrat Pulev and won the vacant WBA International belt. The title of a full-fledged WBA champion belongs to Oleksandr Usyk.
