Ben Shalom, a young promoter in his early 30s now working with Sky Sports on behalf of his company BOXXER, would be very happy to work with Derek Chisora (32-12, 23 KOs). And he has several offers for the British veteran.

Shalom's first idea was a fight between Chisora ​​and Hughie Fury (26-3, 15 KOs), but the ex-European champion and contender for the WBC heavyweight title was not interested in such a fight. In the future, Shalom continued other candidates - Michael Hunter (20-1-2, 14 KOs), Chris Arreola (38-7-1, 33 KOs) and Dominic Breazeale (20-3, 18 KOs).

“Derek is still very popular in the UK and there are many different options for him. We wanted to set him up with Hughie Fury, but Chisora ​​was not interested in such a duel. Therefore, we are talking with his team and looking for other options. Which? For example, Michael Hunter, Chris Arreola, maybe Dominic Breazeale. The conditions must be suitable for both parties,” Shalom said.

Interestingly, Chisora ​​still has a very strong position in the market, despite three losses in a row. In battles with Alexander Usik, and then in two wars with Joseph Parker, he showed his strongest sides, that is, aggression, strength and tough character, which boxing fans appreciated.
