Derek Chisora Reveals Surprising Dream Opponent for Wembley Farewell: "Time to settle this"

Chisora has fought 49 times as a pro. He's won 36 fights, with 23 knockouts, and lost 13 times. His latest victory came against Otto Wallin. Chisora beat Wallin by unanimous decision, showing he's still got what it takes to compete at the highest level.

Throughout his career, Chisora has faced some of the best in the business. He's traded blows with Dillian Whyte, Joe Joyce, Joseph Parker, David Price, Tyson Fury, and David Haye. But it's his fight with Usyk that stands out.

When Usyk moved up to heavyweight, Chisora gave him a real test. Although Chisora lost on points, he made Usyk work harder than most opponents had before.

Now, Chisora wants to run it back with Usyk for his final fight. He's got his sights set on a big venue, too. Chisora said on social media:

"I will sell out Wembley or Tottenham against Oleksandr Usyk more than any other fighter. Let's make it happen."

But getting Usyk in the ring might not be easy. The Ukrainian champ wants to become a two-time undisputed heavyweight champion. He's already beaten Daniel Dubois for the IBF belt and now he's got to face Joseph Parker to keep his WBO title.

If Usyk isn't available, Chisora has other options. He could face Deontay Wilder, have a third fight with Dillian Whyte, or take on Daniel Dubois or Anthony Joshua.

Chisora, known as "Del Boy" or "War", has always brought excitement to the ring. He's ranked number two by the IBF and wants to go out on his own terms after 50 fights.

The heavyweight division is buzzing right now. Usyk holds most of the belts, with Dubois having the IBF title. Chisora's final fight, whoever it's against, will add another chapter to this exciting era in heavyweight boxing.
