Tyson Fury, the British boxer, has reconsidered his retirement decision and plans to return to the ring. The Gypsy King has fought 33 times and won 32 of them while also winning the world heavyweight title twice. There is only one controversial draw in his boxing career, against Deontay Wilder while Fury was fighting as a WBC heavyweight title challenger. Fury has also appeared in WWE matches and has the desire to participate in MMA events.
Tyson Fury wants to be the first champion boxer to participate in a trilogy bout twice, which is the main reason for the gypsy king’s return. Fury had made a promise that he would fight his friend Derek Chisora in the later part of his career. To keep that promise, Fury is prepared to take down Del Boy on December 3, 2022, at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England.
Derek Chisora, the British boxer, never touched any major boxing titles in his professional boxing career. Becoming a WBC heavyweight title challenger is his biggest achievement. The 38-year-old boxer featured in the ring 45 times, winning 33 of them with a knockout percentage of 70% and losing 12 times.
After analyzing previous payment records and data from insiders, we came to the conclusion that this is how much these two could be making for the upcoming clash. Let us break down the fight purses, payouts, and salaries of these elite boxers for their upcoming WBC heavyweight title bout.
