Derek Chisora Calls Out Oleksandr Usyk

41-year-old British heavyweight Derek Chisora (36-13, 23 KOs) has set his sights on a rematch with WBA, WBC, WBO, and IBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (23-0, 14 KOs) for what could be his milestone 50th professional fight.

I’m going to sell out Tottenham Stadium in London. I’ll give Usyk a call and see if we can make this happen. Yes, I believe I won that first fight (back in 2020).

Do you guys want me to fight AJ? He’s got a fight lined up for later this year too, so let’s see what happens. But right now, I want Oleksandr,” Chisora told talkSPORT.

Their first encounter took place in October 2020, with Usyk winning by unanimous decision.

On February 8, Chisora defeated Otto Wallin via unanimous decision, keeping his career alive as he eyes a massive final showdown.
