Wallin: "I Can’t Stand Chisora. I’d Fight Him"

Swedish heavyweight boxer Otto Wallin (27-2, 15 KOs) has expressed interest in stepping into the ring with British fighter Derek Chisora (35-13, 23 KOs).

"I’m open to that fight. Honestly, I think it’s the perfect matchup for me. But I don’t think I’ll get that chance. I feel like he doesn’t want to fight. If Chisora is smart enough, he won’t agree to a fight with me. But I’d be happy to fight him. Honestly, I can’t stand the guy, so I’d be glad to meet him in the ring.

Chisora is a very peculiar character, and he can be very disrespectful at times. He disrespected me when we were in Saudi Arabia. Remember when he was shouting at Joseph Parker at the press conference? Something similar happened with me, and I didn’t like it," said Wallin.

Otto Wallin last fought on July 26 against Onorede Ehwareme (20-5, 19 KOs), winning by first-round knockout. The next day, Derek Chisora secured a unanimous decision victory over Joe Joyce (16-3, 15 KOs).
