Longtime heavyweight contender Derek Chisora's opponent for Dec. 13 – his 50th and final foe? – will be announced Saturday, according to promoter Frank Warren.
Who will be Derek Chisora's 50th opponent on December 13 in Manchester, England?
The longtime heavyweight contender seemed to be leaning toward Jarrell Miller as his foe for what the Londoner has suggested will be his goodbye fight, but promoter Frank Warren says Miller is out.
"Derek didn't want to fight him," Warren told BoxNation.
David Haye, Chisora's former advisor, told The Ring that Chisora has signed to fight Dillian Whyte for a third time, but that has yet to be confirmed.
Warren said we'll know for sure in a few days. “We will announce it on Saturday,” he said.
Chisora, 41, has been on a roll lately. After Tyson Fury stopped him in the 10th round of a non-competitive fight in 2022, he has outpointed Gerald Washington, Joe Joyce and Otto Wallin in succession.
Haye, a former heavyweight titleholder who stopped Chisora in 2012, says Whyte is next.
Whyte (31-4, 21 KOs) defeated Chisora (36-13, 23 KOs) by a split decision in a thrilling fight in 2016 and stopped him in 11 rounds in their 2018 rematch.
"We've got Dillian Whyte 3, they've agreed the terms," Haye said. "It's 50-50, and the winner gets 60 percent, loser gets 40. Whyte lost to [Moses] Itauma in his last fight but this reminds me of Gatti-Ward. No matter what stage they fight at, it's always going to be even and drama filled.
"What a great way for Derek to finish his career. I was sitting with Derek at the Pride of Britain Awards [on Monday], and he was super excited."
Warren, however, has provided no clues about who Chisora's opponent might be. The founder of Queensberry has been busy promoting this Saturday’s matchup between heavyweight contenders Joseph Parker and Fabio Wardley.
The announcement is expected to be made before Parker and Wardley step into the ring.
