Eddie Hearn in an interview to Sky Sports said that the nearest possible date for a fight between Derek Chisora (32-9, 23 KOs) and Oleksandr Usyk (17-0, 13 KOs) was 28 March.
WBO heavyweight belt will at stake in this battle - full or interim - and it will be held at the O2 Arena in London. This platform is already booked by Matchroom Boxing.
If Chisora and Usyk will meet in London on March 28, it is likely that the date of another boxing evening by Hearn, scheduled for the same date in Chicago, will change. In the main event of this evening in Chicago there was scheduled a meeting of world middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin (40-1-1, 35 KOs) and Kamil Szeremeta (21-0, 5 KOs).
