Undefeated WBC heavyweight champion, Tyson Fury isn't retiring after all, as he is set to take on former WBC heavyweight title challenger, Derek Chisora, in a trilogy bout on December 3 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England.
ESPN's Mike Coppinger was the first to report the news of the matchup being in the works via a tweet, although no official announcement has yet been made regarding the booking or event. Fury retired momentarily after defeating two-time interim WBC heavyweight champ, Dillian Whyte, via a sixth-round TKO back in April. Chisora meanwhile is 1-3 in his last four fights and is coming off of a split-decision victory over former unified heavyweight title challenger, Kubrat Pulev, in their rematch back in July.
