In the UK Channel 5 will air the fight meaning it is free for all UK residents to watch.

Chisora V Fury: Klitschko awaits, and Boxing is back on British TV
By Jordan Stoddart: Still fresh from the disappointment of David Haye’s lackluster display in Hamburg, and last weeks poor, but stacked, card in Liverpool featuring the most bizarre ending to a world title fight you will ever see, British heavyweight prospects Dereck Chisora and Tyson Fury bid to build on what can be viewed as a low in current British boxing standards, although Kevin Mitchell V John Murray gave the fans something to smile about in a Liverpool thriller last weekend.

If Fury loses the fight, he could end up retiring from boxing. Fury is still very green and is only now starting to learn how to fight with the help of trainer Emanuel Steward. The chances are fairly good that Chisora will beat Fury tonight, because he’s more advanced than Fury right now and has better offensive weapons.
