Chisora targeting Price and McDermott for his next two fights and then a world title shot
By William Mackay: It seems that British and Commonwealth champion Dereck Chisora (14-0, 9 KO’s) is no longer so eager to take on IBF/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko in his next fight.

Tyson Fury didn’t look all that bad in beating McDermott
By Sean McDaniel: Heavyweight Tyson Fury (11-0, 9 KO’s) has taken a ton of criticism for his performance in stopping Big John McDermott (25-7, 16 KO’s) in the 9th round last Friday night at the Brentwood Centre, Brentwood, Essex. I, for one, don’t agree with the criticism and think a lot of it is a bit unfair. Fury, 22, looked impressive in the first rounds and also in the 8th and 9th rounds, showing good power, nice combinations and a wide punch assortment that he was able to use on the heavy McDermott. Fury clearly tired under the hot lights in rounds five through seven.

“I’m really happy first four rounds I was behind the jab,” Fury told Sky Sports. “But the heat in here was very, very hot and I was knackered. I was very tired and my legs were very tired. But there’s something inside me that thought I’m not quitting here – and I knew I had the power to knock him out. Fair play to John McDermott for fighting me again but I knew I could do it.
