Tyson Fury will fight Derek Chisora on December 3 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with Fury defending his WBC heavyweight title, it was announced today.

This will be the third time the two have shared the ring together, with Fury coming out on top on both previous occasions back in 2014 and 2011.
Fury’s team had been trying to arrange a fight with Anthony Joshua for the same date, but after the talks broke down, it’s been announced Chisora will step up to the plate.
It will be the Brit’s first fight since his sixth round knockout victory over Dillian Whyte at Wembley back in April.
‘The Gypsy King’ will go into the fight with and undefeated record of 32-0-1, with his only draw coming in the first of his three fights with Deontay Wilder.
It’s thought that the fight with Chisora will act as a stepping stone before setting up a heavyweight unification bout with WBA, IBF, WBO and IBO heavyweight champions Oleksandr Usyk next year.

The December fight will be Chisora’s second attempt at winning the WBC heavyweight title, after he previously fell to a unanimous decision defeat to Vitali Klitschko in Munich back in 2012.
The Brit, who was born in Zimbabwe, has a record of 33-12 going into the fight, and won his most recent fight back in July against Kubrat Pulev to win the WBA International heavyweight title.
‘Del Boy’ had lost his three previous fights, twice to Joseph Parker and once to Usyk, losing to the latter on points in the Ukrainian’s last before beating Anthony Joshua to claim four heavyweight world titles.
Betfair spokesperson Sam Rosbottom said: “With their trilogy fight being confirmed on Thursday, Tyson Fury is the 1/33 odds-on favourite to successfully defend his WBC heavyweight world title against Derek Chisora.
“Fury knocking out Chisora, who he has beaten twice before, is the most likely method of victory at 3/10.
“Meanwhile, Del Boy is 11/1 to cause a massive upset at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on December 3.”
