Derek Chisora responds to Tyson Fury announcing end of heavyweights' friendship

Derek Chisora has responded to Tyson Fury's friendship claim by agreeing to a trilogy fight with his rival.

Chisora and Fury had previously shared the ring on two previous occasions during their heavyweight careers with the 'Gypsy King' prevailing in both. Fury has remained undefeated throughout his career and made a defence of his WBC crown against Dillian Whyte at Wembley Stadium in April.

Prior to Fury's meeting with Chisora's rival Whyte, Chisora bet his house on the 'Body Snatcher' winning the fight by KO. His wager dramatically backfired but he was seen celebrating with Fury at his after party days after the victory. However Fury has since claimed their friendship is over and is willing to "punch" Chisora in the face again. Me and Derek Chisora used to be chum buddies. I went to Monaco to support him. I went to Hamburg to support him,” Fury told talkSPORT Fight Night.
