This Saturday Dereck Chisora will be hoping that he can win the European heavyweight title.

The colourful character will be taking on the reigning champion, Agit Kabayel, in Monaco.

For Chisora the heavyweight title represents a possible route towards a crack at the version of the world heavyweight title.

Talking about his future, Dereck has had this say,

‘I need to get this fight done and look good.

‘This came up and I think that it was meant to be for Dillian but he was too scared to fight this boy, so I took it.

‘Dillian won at the weekend, I’m going to win, so let’s do it, there’s nothing stopping us.’


And as for the current heavyweight scene, Chisora had this to say about the reigning world title holders,

‘I want to fight for a world title too.

‘We don’t know why Joseph Parker is holding a world title. How is Wilder still a world champion?

‘Anthony Joshua is doing well, the other two guys are just lucky. They were there at the right time.

‘Parker boxed for a world title without TV – that’s embarrassing and they didn’t sell any tickets. That tells you everything.’


Chisora would, as you?d expect after the controversial decision the first time they met, like another crack at Dillian Whyte who is also edging towards a world title fight.

But, to fulfil those dreams Chisora needs to beat Kabayel in Monte Carlo this Saturday evening.
