Tyson Fury Vs. Derek Chisora: It’s The Trilogy Fight Nobody Wants
Usually, trilogy fights are in big demand. Not this one.
For a third time, Tyson Fury will fight fellow Briton Derek Chisora — this time for Fury’s WBC heavyweight title in London on Dec. 3. It’s a fight not a soul (probably not even Chisora) was clamoring for. But it’s a fight the boxing world is getting.
The question is, why? Why is arguably the best heavyweight on the planet — maybe the greatest in a generation — squaring off with an opponent who has 13 losses and zero chance of winning.
The answer: This is how boxing does it — cloak another charade in a fancy promoting package to sell to the public.
It will be Fury’s first bout since demolishing another British heavyweight, Dillian Whyte, in front of 94,000 spectators at London’s Wembley Stadium in April — after which Fury announced his retirement.
