It’s wanting increasingly more possible that British warhorse Derek Chisora will struggle former two-time foe Joseph Parker in his so-called fiftieth and out struggle. Not too many days in the past, former WBO heavyweight champ Parker, who’s now the WBO interim champion, mentioned he’d very very similar to to struggle Chisora in a trilogy struggle, this in order to remain busy and since, because the New Zealander mentioned, “Derek at all times brings it.”

Now, the parents on the WBO have mentioned they’d enable a 3rd struggle between Parker and Chisora to go forward and that they’d sanction it with their interim heavyweight title on the road. In the meantime, Parker’s supervisor, Dave Higgins, has advised Sky Sports activities that their facet can be very a lot open to the struggle, with Parker eager to return to motion in September.
There may be then a very good probability we might see Parker, who’s 2-0 over Chisora, however needed to get off the ground to win the primary struggle between the 2, go at it once more. And what a narrative it will be for Chisora and for British boxing if “Battle” managed to bag the win this time, this at age 41.
Parker could go one other route, and he, like all the heavyweight division, is ready to see what occurs within the July 19 rematch between Oleksandr Usyk, the reigning WBA/WBC/WBO champ, and Daniel Dubois, who holds the IBF strap.
Parker’s WBO Title Danger
But when 33-year-old Parker needs to danger his WBO obligatory place by slugging it out with Chisora a 3rd time, this one might go down. And although Parker can be a reasonably large favorite to beat Chisora once more, no person can ever write off the grizzled and teak-tough Londoner.
Frank Warren just lately mentioned that whoever he fights subsequent, Parker’s subsequent ring outing will happen within the UK. A betting man would really feel fairly secure putting a wager that claims we might be seeing Parker Vs. Chisora III this 12 months.
Fairly amazingly, each Parker and Chisora are on a very good run in the mean time, which is saying one thing when so many individuals have been calling for Chisora’s retirement for thus lengthy.
