Heavyweight veteran Derek Chisora is angling for a slot on the Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua undercard, hoping to exact his revenge against an old domestic foe.
The 42-year-old is coming off a split decision defeat to Deontay Wilder in April, when he suffered two knockdowns in their largely chaotic 12-round affair.
Prior to that, Chisora was enjoying something of a purple patch, as back-to-back unanimous decision victories over Gerald Washington, Joe Joyce and Otto Wallin had followed his punishing 10th-round stoppage defeat to Fury in 2022.
Back then, the Londoner was entering a rather pointless trilogy bout, having lost his previous two encounters with ‘The Gypsy King’ in convincing fashion.
Far more winnable, however, would be a trilogy contest against Dillian Whyte, who won their first fight by edging a contentious split decision in 2016.
The pair then squared off in a rematch two years later and, in another closely-contested battle, Whyte managed to score a dramatic 11th-round knockout.
Looking to reignite their rivalry, Chisora has now taken to social media and called for a third encounter at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium on December 11.

Whether this actually materialises, it remains to be seen, but many would likely give Chisora a much greater chance of victory this time around.
Whyte, after all, has not fought since his emphatic first-round stoppage defeat to Moses Itauma in August 2025, when many felt he looked a shell of his former self.
And while he is yet to hang up the gloves, the 38-year-old is surely not far away from doing so, with Chisora also perhaps one or two fights short of retirement.
