Tyson Fury fight announcement tomorrow

Update: ESPN will reportedly put the fight on ESPN+, not pay-per-view.

A press conference has been called for tomorrow in London to announce the next fight for WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury. Fury has confirmed that the fight will take place December 3. According to the Daily Mail, it will take place at the 62,850-seat Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London. All indications are the bout will be a trilogy fight with WBC #14 rated Derek Chisora (33-12, 23 KOs), whom Fury has already defeated twice in 2011 and 2014.

Fury looked to be in good shape in an Instagram video where he showed off his abs. The champ promised to “end the year with a big bang” and indicated that he’s going off social media until the fight.

  • Why? I can see Wilder fighting a tomato can to get a tune up bout but.But geeze Fury please fight Joshua, usyk or Andy Ruiz not a cat you already beat twice. If you do that go back and fight Stevie Cunningham at least that will be a better bout!

    • i think this really does just run back to a promise he made to Chisora years ago. Everything else surrounding this fight in the last year has been to sell it. It does suck though. I won’t pay for it. I appreciated the the Whyte matchup even though Fury was big favourite, but this one doesn’t interest me.

  • Fury vs Chisora… Hmmm… Pretty easy fight to see who the winner is… I was thinking maybe Fury would have taken better risk picking a legit opponent. Oh well, guess this is the best Xmas gift we get from him for a fight in December.

  • Derek Chisora (33-12, 23 KOs), fighting for a World title says it all.
    What a poor state heavyweight boxing is in for the past decade and foreseeable future.
    Fury won’t fight Usyk – his handlers will find an excuse to avoid that fight as usual.

    • That would be a good thing for Usyk. I think he’s a great fighter but he’d get wooped by Fury. The size difference on top of all Fury’s abilities make that a ridiculous ask of Usyk.

      • Fury is very limited in his abilities. He looks so awkward when he try’s to move around the ring and throw punches.
        Usyk has too much speed, skill, poise and ability for Fury to handle…. So he’ll stay away from Usyk and try to claim Usyk is afraid of him. Fury is not fast enough to deal with Usyk.

  • If it Chisora again its a total waste of time… Who in their right mind will pay to see that?

    • What makes this worse is that it looks like Fury is doing Chisora a favor. It feels more like a business agreement between friends then a fight. If I were Chisora I would feel guilty for trying to win. That said I am not Chisora and hopefully he will give his best with a clear conscience. But the fact I feel this way takes away from the fight even more then it looking like a mismatch.

  • I guess Otto Wallin wasn’t available?

    Oh, never mind. Fury could actually lose that one.

    • How delusional do you have to be to try to paint a guy who slugged it out with Wilder as if it was another day at the shop as if he would be afraid of anyone. Ridiculous.

  • remove fury from boxing im tired of this clown, boxing dont need this clown even jerry cooney could of knocked his a$$ out.

  • Fury vs Chisora III sounds as boring as Mayweather vs YouTuber with many followers.

  • Clearly Fury just LIKES Chisora. I think they’ll get in there and have fun and Fury will take a low contact decision and his buddy will get a nice payday before he hangs up his gloves.

    • Will be exactly that if Fury learned anything from watching the Mayweather exhibitions.

  • #14TH RANKED HEAVYWEIGHT?????? Why when there’s Ruiz, Duboise, Joyce, & Joshua. Here we go with the WBC letting the belt be held captive again ala Stevenson & Russell Jr. The WBC must stand for W.hy B.ox. C.ontenders As in “why box contenders when you can fight scrubs and be called champion!!!!!”

  • Oh well, chisora gon’ get a third ass whooping and a nice pay check while at it! Do, not a bad deal for him!

  • The boxing world thought Holyfield v Cooper was a waste of time. And for that matter Holyfield v Tyson I had calls to not hold the bout.

  • I thought this Humpty Dumpty on stilts retired.
    – I like Usyk and wish him the best. He’s a warrior.
    – I have no interest in seeing Fury beat the washed up Chisora again.
    – I have no interest in seeing Fury beat Wilder in a fourth fight.
    – Wilder-Ruiz doesn’t interest me.
    – Joe Joyce doesn’t do anything for me as a fighter.
    – Neither does Joshua, Dillian Whyte, Luis Ortiz, Joseph Parker, Pulev, Hunter, and so forth.

    Very disappointed in the state of the heavyweight division. This has been going on for too long.

  • Chisora lost three straight fights before getting a hometown split decision against Pulev in his last.

    • MrCEO
      Your brainwashed idiots in the US have been paying for Wilder to beat Tomato cans for years.
      Dont be a hypocrite.

  • Chisora is a big threat according to Fury and anyone can fall this fight. Say it a few more times and maybe some of us will believe it.
