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.
