Derek Chisora (32-10, 23 KOs) threatened to withdraw from today's fight against Joseph Parker (28-2, 21 KOs) if he had to enter the ring first. The order of boxers entrance was determined by a coin toss.

"I really don't see the opportunity to have this fight if Derek comes out first," Del Boy manager David Haye said yesterday.

Chisora ​​also commented on this issue today. “This is my PPV. Recently I agreed to go out first, because all the time they said to me: "Usyk that, Usyk this", so I gave up. But why was I always turned into a balloon? If there were fans at the party, they would buy tickets to watch me, not Parker!" the indignant Briton said.

In the end, however, David Haye announced that his ward would still fight Parker.
