Over six years on from their original bout, Derek Chisora once again squares off against the Bulgarian Kubrat Pulev. He comes into the fight off the back of three losses, once against Oleksandr Usyk and twice against New Zealander Joseph Parker.
Chisora's previous encounter with Pulev came in May 2016 at the Barclaycard Arena in Hamburg, Germany. Pulev's victory came via split decision and won him the then-vacant European heavyweight title.
Warming up with his first fight since his 2020 defeat against Anthony Joshua, Pulev fought just last month, beating Jerry Forrest in a 10-round bout that took place at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California.
