Greg RosensteinTyson Fury and Derek Chisora are finalizing a trilogy bout at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on Dec. 3 for Fury’s WBC heavyweight belt, a source confirmed to The Athletic on Tuesday. “The Gypsy King” won both previous matches, a unanimous decision in July 2011 and a 10th-round corner stoppage in November 2014.
The fight, first reported by ESPN, will be broadcast for free in the United States on ESPN+ and on PPV in the U.K. on BT Sport Box Office. Fury is coming off a sixth-round TKO win over Dillian Whyte in April. After a draw with Deontay Wilder in their first meeting in December 2018, Fury has won five straight fights.
Chisora , born in Zimbabwe but raised in the U.K., most recently broke a three-fight losing streak with a split decision victory over Kubrat Pulev in July.
