Dillian Whyte offers Derek Chisora heavyweight trilogy fight with rule change

Dillian Whyte has offered to take on British rival Derek Chisora in a trilogy fight - but this time in the MMA cage.

Whyte and Chisora have met in two epic battles during their heavyweight careers, with a first duel being handed by controversial split decision to the 'Body Snatcher'. After a heated war of words for nearly two years, the pair settled the scores for a second time as Whyte produced a highlight-reel KO at London's O2 Arena in 2018.

The pair have since gone on their different routes, with both having fought and come up short against WBC heavyweight Tyson Fury last year. Despite facing calls to retire, Chisora has added to speculation that he could fight again, claiming on an Instagram live stream: “I’m trying to fight Francis Ngannou. I want to do it in the UFC and boxing.”
