Derek Chisora will face Deontay Wilder at London’s O2 Arena on April 4 in what will be the 50th professional fight between the two heavyweights.
Chisora is a cult hero in British boxing and has been at the top of the division for the past 15 years.
He has fought a long list of the best boxers in the world, including Tyson Fury (three times), Oleksandr Usyk, Vitali Klitschko and many more.
Chisora, who has challenged for the world title twice before and headlined football stadiums in his third fight with Fury, is in fine form.
American Wilder is widely considered the heaviest boxer in the sport and is arguably one of the heaviest hitters of all time.
The former WBC heavyweight champion is unbeaten in 43 fights, and the Olympic bronze medalist’s unbeaten streak began in 2008 and lasted until his second fight with Fury in 2020.
With a knockout rate of over 97%, Wilder has racked up some amazing results along the way. After losing to Joseph Parker and Zhang Zhilei, Wilder rebuilt the team last year with a victory over Tyrell Anthony Herndon.
Wilder, who had a controversial fight against reigning unified heavyweight champion Usyk, will return to the UK to face Chisora for the first time since defeating Audley Harrison in 2013.
