Derek Chisora vs. Deontay Wilder – results and post-fight report
In a brutal last-chance heavyweight saloon showdown, Deontay Wilder lived to see another day with a 12-round split decision victory over Derek Chisora on Saturday at the O2 Arena in London.
Former WBC champion Wilder (45-4-1, 43 KO) resigned from his title Tyson Fury in 2021, then lost to Joseph Parker and Zhilei Zhang, but finished in the seventh round last June against Tyrrell Herndon, while Chisora (36-14, 23 KO) has won three times since losing to Fury in 2022.
In a wild opening round, Chisora was lucky not to be disqualified when his corner entered the ring after Wilder almost pushed his fighter over the top rope, and in the second round the home favorite was staggered by a volley of weighty punches from the American.
Chisora did land a decent right hand in the round and the referee seemed to flexible on the 42-year-old in the third quarter as Wilder continued his onslaught.
After a tumultuous fight, Chisora emerged victorious in the fourth round, but Wilder had the advantage in the fifth and the Briton faced pressure from his opponent as the fight reached the halfway point. In round seven, Wilder tried to establish his jab but failed due to his accuracy as he tried to pin Chisora.
The breakthrough came in the eighth period for the “Brown Bomber,” who, after taking a piercing right from Chisora, responded with a sustained attack in the corner that sent Chisora to the canvas. He was badly injured but bravely survived the round, with Wilder earning a point for the jab.
Chisora rallied, supporting Wilder in the ninth round and landing some powerful shots in the 10th, but by the penultimate session he was on the verge of attacking, broke through the ropes and was on top as the fight reached its final frame.
Wilder landed a nice uppercut, but Chisora responded and the two traded punches on the final bell, leaving the fight in the balance.
One of the judges awarded Chisora 115-112, and the score of 115-113 and 115-111 for Wilder ensured the victory for the guest.

Riley (14-0, 7 KO) dominated throughout the match and emerged the winner by one score of 119-109 and two points of 118-110.

On Wednesday, Lewis Crocker heads to Australia to defend his IBF welterweight world title against Liam Paro for the first time.
Crocker will face Paro at the Pat Rafter Arena in Queensland, live on DAZN in the UK and Kayo Sports in Australia.
Crocker (22-0, 11 KO) became world champion in September, defeating Paddy Donovan twice before winning the rematch by split decision.
Man from Belfast recorded his second victory over Donovan after the first victory in March last year, and his rival was disqualified for hitting him after the bell.
Paro (27-1, 16 KO) is trying to become a world champion in two weight categories, having previously reigned in the super-lightweight division.
The 30-year-old won the title with a unanimous decision victory over Subriel Matias in Puerto Rico before winning the belt in his first defense against Richardson Hitchins.
The Australian has since won twice, overtaking David Papot in his last appearance in September.
McKean meets Taliva
Heavyweight Demsey McKean will look to continue his rebuild when he faces Liam Talivaa for the vacant IBF Pan Pacific title.
McKean (24-2, 16 KO) had his career cut miniature after a last-round loss to Filip Hrgovic, followed by a brutal first-round loss to Moses Itauma.

The 35-year-old southpaw returned to winning ways with back-to-back stoppage victories.
Talivaa (8-2, 4 KO) last won the IBF Oceania-Orient title, defeating Faiga Opelu by first-round stoppage.
Undercard remaining
At cruiserweight, Luke Modini (13-0, 11 KO) will likely need distance to beat Peng Qu (17-2-1, 12 KO), while Riley Candy (8-1, 5 KO) could stop Nathan Watson (11-3, 3 KO) at super middleweight.
Vegas Larfield (13-1, 9 KO) can hand Shamal Ram Anuj (11-8, 8 KO) his fourth defeat in a row in a featherweight clash.
Heavyweight Nelson Asofa-Solomon (2-0, 2 KO) can secure a third straight knockout over debutant George Burgess, and Stevan Ivic (8-0-1, 2 KO) can do the same against Caleb Tialu (3-7, 3 KO), also a heavyweight.
Prospective super welterweight fighter Jack Javed (1-0) should overtake Lance McDonald (1-5-1, 1 KO).
