Tyson Fury has already given Derek Chisora verdict ahead of fight announcement
manchestereveningnews.co.ukTyson Fury is set to announce that his next opponent will be Derek Chisora, with the WBC Heavyweight champion hoping to fight Chisora in place of Anthony Joshua on December 3rd.
The fight is still expected to take place at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium, with the venue in the Welsh capital having been expected to stage the fight against Joshua before negotiations fell through.
The pair could not come to an agreement, with Fury setting an ultimatum for an agreement which was not met. He has met Chisora twice before, with Fury winning in both 2011 and in 2014, with the latter coming a year before he became World Champion for the first time against Vladmir Klitschko.
Meanwhile, Chisora has seen his stock rise within the heavyweight division having beaten Kubrat Pulev in July.
