By Dave Lahr: Unbeaten British and Commonwealth champion Dereck Chisora (14-0, 9 KO’s) took exception to the comments made by former promoter Jarvis Astaire, who said recently that the British Board of Control should “Seriously reconsider authorizing Chisora’s trip to Germany,” against IBF/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko on December 11th. Astaire says “Not only is Chisora a comparative novice, but he is four inches shorter than Wladimir” Chisora obviously didn’t care for those comments and fired back with some comments of his own, saying “This is a stupid argument. It’s not a question of whether I have had enough fights or if I’m tall enough to fight Klitschko; The point is that when I get through the ropes I will get in there and have a fight and throw things that boxers are supposed to throw – punches – something that [Audley] Harrison didn’t do.”

Chisora says he’s going to ruin Haye’s plans of fighting the Klitschkos by beating them first
By William Mackay: Unbeaten Commonwealth and British heavyweight champion Dereck Chisora (14-0, 9 KO’s) was totally disgusted in watching last Saturday’s title fight between WBA heavyweight champion David Haye and challenger Audley Harrison. Chisora, a nonsense guy that believes in hard work and going all out in his fights, called the Haye-Harrison fight an “Embarrassment” to boxing. Speaking with Sky Sports News, Chisora said “It was a big embarassment for boxing to be honest for both parties. I don’t know what kind of game he was playing, Audley, I think he should hang up his gloves. Who is going to fight him? Who is going to want to fight him: The public arean’t gonna buy a fight to go and watch him anymore.”
Derek Chisora v Wladimir Klitschko a pre-fight review
By Gari Jones: So the fight is all set and Derek Chisora will be allowed to take his chance at the IBF, WBO and IBO World Heavyweight Champion. After being spared jail for an assault on his girlfriend Derek Chisora gets the opportunity of a lifetime in his relatively short career at the No.1 Undisputed Heavyweight Champion Wladimir Klitschko.
It’s fair to say that Chisora (W14, (KO9) L0, D0) has managed to jump the gun a bit when he faces off against Wladimir Klitschko (W55, (KO49), L3, D0), having only recently won the BBBofC British Heavyweight Title and the Commonwealth (British Empire) Heavyweight Title, he’s skipped fighting most of the domestic scene and totally by past the European level of heavyweight boxing, which would quite easily suggest that Derek will be severely outclassed come fight night.
Chisora might ruin Haye’s chance at a fight with Wladimir Klitschko
By Dave Lahr: Unbeaten Derek Chisora (14-0, 9 KO’s) my ruin WBA heavyweight champion David Haye’s chance at getting a hold of IBF/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (55-3, 49 KO’s) next year by beating him on December 11th when they meet up at the SAP-Arena, Mannheim, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. Chisora, 26, may not have Haye’s hand speed, power or silky moves, but he’s more than powerful enough to knock Wladimir out and take his titles from before Haye ever gets a chance at him.
Why does Haye want Chisora to beat Wladimir Klitschko?
By William Mackay: WBA heavyweight champion David Haye (24-1, 22 KO’s) had a chance to fight Wladimir Klitschko recently, but the two of them were unable to agree to the terms for a fight. Wladimir instead will be fighting little known Dereck Chisora (14-0, 9 KO’s) on December 11th in Germany, while Haye has agreed to fight 39-year-old former 2000 Olympic Gold Medalist Audley Harrison for a big payday on November 13th at the M.E.N. Arena, in Manchester, England. Haye, for some reason, is hoping that Chisora beats Wladimir next month.
Haye gives Chisora no chance at beating Wladimir Klitschko
By Dan Ambrose: Despite backing him for the December 11th title fight against IBF/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (55-3, 49 KO’s), WBA heavyweight champion David Haye is giving fellow countrymen Dereck Chisora (14-0, 9 KO’s) no chance at beating Klitschko on the 11th of next month in their fight in Germany. Speaking with Sportinglife.co.uk, Haye said “Of course, I’ll be supporting him [Chisora]. He’s a fellow Brit and it would be nice for him to do it. But no matter how much support I give him, he’s not going to win the fight. So it’s irrelevant how much support I give him.”
No jail time for Chisora, Klitschko fight good to go
By Eric Thomas: British and Commonwealth champion Dereck Chisora (14-0, 9 KO’s) got some good news earlier today when he received a suspended sentence for assault on his ex-girlfriend. According to Guardian.co.uk, the 26-year-old Chisora received a 12 week suspended sentence for two years for the “humiliating assault.”
Klitschko vs. Chisora: Dereck has the tools to win
By Dave Lahr: British heavyweight Dereck Chisora (14-0, 9 KO’s) definitely has the skills, the power and the ring smarts to pull off a huge upset of IBF/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (55-3, 49 KO’s) on December 11th at the SAP-Arena, Mannheim, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. I don’t even see this as a case of Chisora pulling off an upset, because he has the ability to win this fight but people still don’t realize how good this guy is. I think Chisora is the best fighter in the UK by far, and that makes him a top three heavyweight in the division because WBA title holder Haye is consider number 3.
Chisora using Richard Towers to prepare for Klitschko
By Dave Lahr: Undefeated Dereck Chisora (14-0, 9 KO’s) is using unbeaten 6’8” Richard Towers (8-0, 6 KO’s) to help him prepare for his title fight against IBF/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (55-3, 49 KO’s) on December 11th, at the SAP-Arena, Mannheim, Baden-Württemberg, Germany, according to Bettor.com.
Tyson Fury gives Chisora a chance to beat Wladimir Klitschko
By William Mackay: Unbeaten British heavyweight Tyson Fury (12-0, 9 KO’s) feels that British/Commonwealth heavyweight champion Dereck Chisora (14-0, 9 KO’s) has a chance against IBF/WBO heavyweigght champion Wladimir Klitschko (55-3, 49 KO’s) on December 11th in their title fight. Fury, however, isn’t giving the 6’1″ Chisora much of a chance against the towering 6’6″ Klitschko for obvious reasons.
