Derek Chisora Calls Out UK Rappers and Fans for Final Career Decision: Who’s Next?

Derek Chisora, after a victorious fight against Otto Wallin, invites UK rappers and fans to help select his 50th and final opponent, promising a blockbuster showdown.

Derek Chisora made headlines once again, not just for his impressive victory over Otto Wallin but also for his unique approach to deciding his next opponent. In what is billed as his final fight on UK soil, the 49-year-old boxer delivered a stellar performance, thrilling fans at the Co-op Live arena in Manchester, England.

Chisora (36-13, 23 KOs) dominated the fight, flooring Wallin (27-3, 15 KOs) twice—once in the ninth round and again in the closing seconds. This eliminator for the IBF world heavyweight title has set the stage for Chisora's 50th and final fight, where he seeks a monumental matchup.

In a post-fight spectacle, Chisora brought UK rap legends Skepta, Lethal Bizzle, and Tinie Tempah onto the canvas, engaging them and the fans in a lively debate over his next opponent. The crowd was presented with options including Anthony Joshua, Daniel Dubois, and Oleksandr Usyk, with Joshua and Usyk receiving the loudest cheers.

Chisora, addressing his fans, said, "You tell me, I think I've earned number 50. A big blockbuster, please. So you tell me." His promoter, Frank Warren, echoed this sentiment, promising to fulfill Chisora's final wish, "Whatever he wants, we will make it happen. We will sit down and make it happen."

With this victory, Chisora has secured his position as a heavyweight contender, setting the stage for an epic farewell fight. The boxing world eagerly awaits the announcement of his final opponent, promising a high-stakes and unforgettable showdown.
