This Saturday Dereck Chisora is hoping to get his world title ambitions back on schedule by claiming the vacant European Heavyweight title.

Chisora, who has fought at world title level before, will be taking on Kubrat Pulev for the vacant bout

Yesterday, at the last press conference ahead of the weigh-in, Chisora caused a scene by grabbing his opponent by the throat.

Chisora, who has flirted with controversy before, seems keen to grab that European title and following the controversial weigh-in, the 32-year-old had this to say to the media,

?I?m not messing around. No more Mr Nice Guy, I?m here to fight!

?I?m going to take Pulev to places he?s never been before. He?s out of his depth and he?s going to get knocked out.?


However, unimpressed by all the palaver, 34-year-old Pulev simply remarked,

?I will cause him great pain.?

This fight could go either way, Chisora knows that he has to win this one otherwise he?s nowhere else to go, but can he beat Pulev, I guess we?ll see this weekend.
