On December 18 in Manchester Dereck Chisora (32-11, 23 KOs) will rematch Joseph Parker (29-2, 21 KOs). The Briton, who lost to the New Zealander by split decision this May, promises a new war in his style and demands fair judging.

"I'm only half worried about it. First of all, I will demand my managers to have an American referee in the ring and good referees near the ring, because I have been robbed many times in my career. In Helsinki, against Robert Helenius, and in Manchester, in my first fight against Dillian Whyte, on your night, Eddie," Chisora said, referring to his promoter, Matchroom boss Eddie Hearn.

"You need honest judges, Eddie, I need them. I know we're going to have a real war with Parker on December 18. I'm not afraid of Parker, I'm more concerned that he doesn't have any assets. He doesn't have much power in his punches, honestly I don't know why he won our first fight. I was disappointed with the judges verdict. I don't watch my fights, why would I do that? I've fought in them, so I know what happened," the Englishman added.

"I am of the opinion that I won the first fight with Parker. I put more pressure, the fight went to my dictation, he just used Cronk's style. If that's how it works, I want to ask, who do I pay, whose account do I transfer the money to so the judges get the count right? I never played boxing, I'm going to fight, I'm going to fight," stated Chisora.
