All of the smack talking is just about done and much more, apparently, is now on the line for Saturday’s British and Commonwealth heavyweight title clash between Champion Dereck “Del Boy” Chisora (14-0, 9 KOs) and undefeated challenger Tyson Fury (14-0, 10 KOs) at the Wembley Arena in London. The scheduled Chisora-Fury 12-round main event has a much more serious world title shot implication for the winner as IBF/WBA and WBO champion Wladimir Klitschko recently told The Daily Mirror, “There are tons of guys who could be my next challenger who are young and undefeated. Chisora and Fury are two such fighters and they are going to fight soon. They may not be big names yet in world terms, but I had not heard about David Haye two years ago.” Fury is a 6’ 9” 260-pound Irishman born in Manchester, England. Named after “Iron” Mike Tyson, the World Boxing Council’s No 21-rated Fury is the cousin of world middleweight title contender Andy Lee. In his last fight this past February, Fury knocked out previously unbeaten Narcelo Luiz Nascimento (13-0) in the fifth round. Other British heavyweights defeated by Fury include John McDermott and Scott Belshaw. Fury, who is aged 22, has dedicated his fight against Chisora to the memory of former world heavyweight title challenger and European champion, Sir Henry Cooper.
