Dereka Chisora is known for his flamboyant personality outside the ring. As thrilling as it is to watch the 39-year-old inside the ring, it is safe to say that he is an uncommon persona outside. The former two-time Heavyweight title challenger recently took the internet by storm after a video of his having a rather uncanny conversation with the interviewer went viral. Chisora’s actions and speech made the interviewer feel ‘threatened’ for himself. Even though the whole interaction cannot be considered fun for the interview, the video has caused a lot of laughs among the fans.

The video is from an interview with IFL TV. And in the video, Chisora does not seem to have a good time with the interviewer. And he did not hesitate to tell him how he felt then.

The Interviewer feels “threatened” by Derek Chisora

Kugan Cassius, the co-founder of IFL TV, was on the other end of the microphone while the interview was conducted. Cassius was ready to ask questions about the sport when he felt the ‘threat’ of his life from the 39-year-old British boxer because he had some problems with the microphone’s distance from his face.

The video starts on a positive note, with Chisora answering a question for the interviewer. But, as the interview progressed, so did the boxer’s problem with the microphone. Chisora said, “Man, You’re shoving it in my mouth. What the Fuck!” Cassius tried to explain the same and said, “It’s loud, so I have to keep it closer”. But Chisora was not ready to have any of it after the failure of finalization with Usyk. There are a lot of rumors of another bout between Chisora and Tyson Fury, with Usyk’s wife sharing a fan-made poster for the same.

After this initial response from Chisora, Cassius thought everything was fine now. But Chisora slammed the interviewer for the second time with a deadly 3-second pause before saying, “You know what Fuck You, man, you keep shoving it in my mouth.” But, at the end of the video, things seemed to have gotten sweet for Chisora, and the interviewer responded, “This is the Derek I like.” This whole interaction has sent the fans into a frenzy, and they have hilarious reactions to it.
