Tyson Fury has been backed heavily to beat Derek Chisora, with the undefeated WBC champion expected to earn a stoppage against Del Boy, it has been revealed this morning.
The fight has been confirmed to be taking place at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on December 3rd. It will see the undefeated Fury (32-1-0) taking on Chisora (33-0-12) and is a fight that few expected to see, with Fury having entered advanced talks to face Anthony Joshua.
