Fabio Wardley picks a winner in Derek Chisora vs Deontay Wilder fight

WBO heavyweight champion Fabio Wardley has given his predictions ahead of Derek Chisora’s fight against former WBC ruler Deontay Wilder.

Chisora ​​has been linked to numerous heavyweights since defeating Otto Wallin a year ago, and his next appearance was his 50th fight after nearly two decades of competition.

However, despite suggestions that Chisora ​​could challenge for Wardley’s title, it was instead announced that ‘Del Boy’ would clash with Wilder at the O2 Arena in two months’ time, hoping to thwart the American’s plans to fight Oleksandr Usyk for the unified world title.

I’m talking to A place of stompingWardley admitted that he favors his compatriot in the fight due to the destitute form and mentality of the “Brown Bomber”, who has lost four of his last six fights.

“Chisora. I think he just has more in the tank. We haven’t seen Wilder’s devastating power since I don’t know how many fights, or just that devastating attitude, almost when he steps into the ring and thinks, ‘you know what, I can beat any man there.’

“So yeah, for me I would say Chisora.”

The Wilder-Chisora ​​fight will take place on Saturday, April 4as the first card of Misfits Pro, a fresh promotional company run by KSI influencer Mams Taylor and the Sauerland brothers. Boxing News understands that British cruiserweight champion Viddal Riley will fight in the co-main event, expected to clash with EBU titleholder Mateusz Masternak.

It will also be a joint promotion with Queensberry, and any doubts about how the fight would go were put to rest after Frank Warren initially stated that he had “Del Boy” under contract for his next fight.

Wardley, who was himself briefly linked to a fight with Chisora, is expected to announce his first title defense in the coming weeks.

The proposed sessions would bring together two world champions from different weight categories. Ryan currently holds the WBC welterweight title and Inoue is the undisputed junior featherweight champion.

A notable part of Ryan’s post was his willingness to stream workouts.

One of the things Ryan mentioned in his X post was his desire to stream workouts. Ryan didn’t say whether he would bring the idea to Naoya to see if he agreed with it or not, nor did he give a date when he would train with the Japanese star.

At this stage, Ryan’s comments appear to reflect purpose rather than final findings. Although he has publicly outlined the plan, Inoue has not announced any potential training session.

If training takes place, they will bring together champions separated by more than 20 pounds in weight. Ryan is fighting in the welterweight division, and Inoue is building his championship streak in the junior featherweight division.

The idea remains one Ryan hopes to implement during his visit to Tokyo, with the added possibility of giving fans a glimpse of the session via livestream.

Tyson Fury ‘very interested’ in facing ‘one of the most avoided heavyweights’: “Let’s make it happen”

Tyson Fury is set to take part in the long-awaited clash with Anthony Joshua, but first he needs a warm-up. Now another challenger has been added to the fight, and Fury is “very interested” in the proposed fight.

The long-awaited clash between Fury and Joshua has finally been signed and will take place pending success in their tune-up fights. While Joshua is scheduled to face Kristian Prenga next month, Fury remains without an opponent for his August outing.

Promoter Frank Warren promised a “good” opponent but he recently ruled out the possibility of the “Gypsy King” facing Joshua’s former defeater Andy Ruiz Jr., who is believed to have priced himself out of the fight.

I’m talking to Play UKJoshua’s other rival, Jarrell Miller, has revealed that Fury is “very interested” in fighting him as he discusses a potential all-American clash with Deontay Wilder.

“I’ve been one of the most avoided heavyweights for a long time. We’re seeing it now. We’re trying to get Deontay Wilder out there. There’s no fight in front of him. I’m the top heavyweight in America right now, so we’re trying to make certain things happen. Let’s see if he can take control.”

“Tyson Fury is also very interested. I would love to fight these guys. Deontay or Tyson would be a wonderful fight for me. Let’s see if we can make it happen.”

Fury’s manager, Spencer Brown, recently confirmed both fighters’ desire to make the fight happen, but said Miller would likely not be able to complete a full training camp on time.

The American has already scored two victories in 2026, defeating both Kingsley Ibeh and Lenier Pero, and the 37-year-old hopes those triumphs will earn him another chance on the huge stage.
