Derek Chisora faces Otto Wallin tonight in a 12-round IBF heavyweight title eliminator to determine the mandatory for champion Daniel Dubois at the Co-op Live Arena in Manchester, England. The two will be the main event. Tonight’s event will be shown live on DAZN starting at 1:30 p.m. ET.
The 41-year-old Chisora (35-13, 23 KOs) hopes to be victorious to set himself up for a title shot. His goal is to reach 50 fights, but a lot will be determined by how tonight’s fight against Wallin (27-2, 15 KOs) goes.
Wallin is taller, younger, at 34, and more gifted than Chisora. He can make this an easy fight to ruin Derek’s goal of reaching 50 fights and getting another title shot. Most boxing fans would agree that Chisora doesn’t deserve to fight for a world title, and it would look unsporting if he faced Dubois.
