Dillian Whyte and Dereck Chisora meet in one of the most highly-anticipated Heavyweight rematches in recent times at The O2 in London on December 22, live on Sky Sports Box Office.
Dereck Chisora is fast running out of time, and options, says rival British heavyweight Dillian Whyte. The two were, maybe still are, supposed to fight a rematch of their fantastic December 2016 slugfest this December 22, but Whyte, in talking with Sky Sports, says that unless Chisora – who recently made the surprising decision to sign up with David Haye – agrees to terms this week there will be not fight.
Dillian Whyte has already taken and won, not one, but two final elimination bouts in an effort at getting himself a crack at a world title, but the British heavyweight could engage in another before the year is out.
If you had to choose which fight to pay for as they took place on the exact same night, which clash would do it for you: Dillian Whyte against Dereck Chisora in a return showdown, or Carl Frampton against Josh Warrington in a featherweight world title clash?
Dillian Whyte, very much in line for a world heavyweight title shot (he has earned one, what with the Londoner boxing and winning two elimination bouts) says he wants one more fight this year ahead of his expected 2019 shot.
Almost always, when a fight turns out to be not only a great action battle but also ends up being decided by a debatable, controversial decision, a rematch takes place.
Fresh off his tough, off the canvas decision win over former WBO heavyweight champ Joseph Parker, Britain’s Dillian Whyte has massive plans.
Eddie Hearn seems to be determined to make a big-fight deal with Deontay Wilder. Though efforts from both sides have thus far proven unsuccessful as far as making that mega-fight with Wilder and Anthony Joshua, Hearn remains hopeful the unification showdown will still happen – maybe next April, on AJ’s April date at Wembley.
Dillian ‘The Body Snatcher’ Whyte (24-1, 17 KOs) got help from a questionable 2nd round head-butt knockdown to defeat Joseph Parker (24-2, 18 KOs) by a 12 round unanimous decision to win their fight on Saturday night at the O2 Arena in London, UK.
The stakes are high going into tomorrow night’s heavyweight rumble between once-beaten contenders Dillian Whyte and Joseph Parker. The elimination bout, really a must-win fight for both the former British champ from London and the former WBO ruler from New Zealand, could earn the winner a world title shot – and with it a shot at revenge.
