Dillian Whyte and Dereck Chisora meet again in a rematch of their 2016 thriller at London‘s O2 Arena.
On the undercard of Anthony Joshua’s IBF title defence against Eric Molina in December 2016, the two stole the show with a brutal slug-fest that saw Whyte claim a narrow victory via a split-decision.
Since then, Whyte has gone from strength-to-strength, racking up four wins including a hugely impressive victory over former WBO world champion Joseph Parker in July to lift him into world title contention.
On the same card, Chisora kept his championship aspirations alive by emphatically stopping the durable Carlos Takam in the eighth round having trailed the Frenchman on points before finishing him with a devastating right.
While Whyte is the mandatory challenger for Deontay Wilder’s WBC crown, the Brixton heavyweight will have his eye on a rematch with Joshua at Wembley in April. For Chisora, this could be his last chance to earn another shot at world title glory.
Here’s what you need to know ahead of Whyte vs Chisora.
