This Saturday, two icons of the heavyweight division clash as Derek Chisora and Deontay Wilder meet at the O2 Arena in London.
For Chisora and Wilder, this will be the 50th fight of their respective careers, and both men will be looking to make a statement.
‘Del Boy’ has claimed that whatever the outcome of Saturday’s clash is, he will walk away from the sport after a historic 19-year career.
‘War’ Chisora has shared the ring with some of the very best, including Oleksandr Usyk, Vitali Klitschko, David Haye, as well as an epic trilogy with Tyson Fury, among many others.
For Wilder, he believes Saturday night marks the first step towards one last throw of the dice at world level.
He defended his WBC heavyweight world title an impressive 10 times from 2015 to 2020, stopping every challenger he faced aside from Tyson Fury.
Wilder suffered some heavy losses following his trilogy with Fury, being outpointed over 12 rounds by Joseph Parker and brutally stopped by Zhilei Zhang, leaving his future in doubt.
He has since claimed he is back to his best and believes Saturday night will be the start of an epic run, while Chisora insists he will ensure both Wilder and himself call it a day.
‘Del Boy’ was last in action at the Co-op Live Arena in Manchester, where he outpointed Otto Wallin. ‘The Bronze Bomber’ last fought in June, stopping Tyrrell Herndon in the seventh round.
