Tyson Fury, a British heavyweight boxing superstar, made the announcement that he will end his retirement and face Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed heavyweight title. Later on, it was made known that he would initially fight Anthony Joshua. However, this fight was canceled, and Derek Chisora took Joshua’s place. Fans have been mocking Fury for taking on Chisora because he has already defeated him twice in the ring. See what Tommy Fury, Tyson’s younger brother, has to say about it.

Tommy Fury was recently in conversation with ‘BOXINGSOCIAL’, where he was asked about Tyson Fury’s trilogy fight with Chisora. The ‘Love Island’ star claimed that people are more interested in Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk than they are in Fury vs. Chisora. He also praised Chisora’s boxing prowess and mentioned that Chisora had given Usyk a difficult finish by pushing him for 12 rounds.

He further added, “So anywhere they are saying Derek Chisora is an easy fight for Tyson, Derek Chisora is 643, 18 and a half stone. You can bang, he put Carlo’s attack on spark out. Anthony Joshua has never done that to Carlos Takam. So you’ve got all these points to think about. Anybody saying Chisora is a walkover, have a day off. Chisora, depending on which Chisora turns up, can be a dangerous man. So you know it can’t, I sold that button it can’t be too many complaints. Because already 17,000 tickets are gone. So you know, it’s gonna be watched by some people, isn’t it?”
