Tyson Fury confirms Derek Chisora fight after Anthony Joshua talks fall through

Tyson Fury will fight British rival Derek Chisora in a heavyweight clash at London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in December.

Fury’s promoter Frank Warren said: ‘Tyson clearly conquered America across his trilogy with Deontay Wilder, and there is also huge demand to stage his fights from sites across the world, [but] Tyson wanted to fight in his home country again this year following his special night at Wembley Stadium in April.

‘This brings us to the magnificent Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and a match against an old rival in Derek Chisora.

‘Derek, also a big favourite with British fans, has reinvented himself in recent years, and Tyson has long stated his wish to fight him for a third time.

‘Tyson can’t afford any slip-up in this fight, as he has the much-publicised, undisputed match-up with Usyk in the new year – which we’re really looking forward to.’
