Derek Chisora is set to challenge for the WBC belt on December 3 in London. On the one hand, Chisora accuses Fury of being afraid of Joshua, on the other hand, he admits that AJ also could not accept this challenge.
“Joshua was unable to fight Fury due to problems with sponsors and promoters. There were many other factors that neither Joshua nor Fury could control. Boxers always want to fight, but unfortunately people think it's easy to organize a big fight. It always comes with a headache,” said Chisora, who entered this fight instead of AJ, and will face the “Gypsy King”.
Eddie Hearn, Joshua's promoter, recently confirmed that Joshua will return to the ring early next year. At the moment, the name of his opponent is unknown.
