Tyson Fury vs Derek Chisora prize money and how much they'll earn from fight

Tyson Fury and Derek Chisora face off at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium tonight - with 'The Gypsy King' taking home a large chunk of the pay packet.

It will be the third time the pair have faced off, with Fury having ruled mighty over Chisora on two occasions, once in 2011 and again in 2014.

Despite 'retiring' in August, just a few months after his victory over Dillian Whyte, Fury then announced he would be taking on Chisora.
