Derek Chisora pondering future after split decision loss to Deontay Wilder

Derek Chisora was left with mixed emotions after he suffered defeat in his final bout, but only after an exhilarating fight of the year contender with Deontay Wilder at a raucous O2 Arena.

In the 50th bout of Chisora’s (36-14, 23KOs) eventful professional career, ‘Del Boy’ showed remarkable powers of recovery to come back from a punishing eighth round and take former WBC champion Wilder (45-4-1, 43 KOs) to the distance.

After the American showed the power early on in London, which once made him one of the most formidable punchers in heavyweight history, Chisora’s farewell threatened to turn into a nightmare during a one-sided start.
