Dillian Whyte has called for a third fight with Derek Chisora.
Whyte and Chisora had two crazy battles, with “The Body Snatcher” winning both fights, the last of which took place in 2018.
The 38-year-old has not fought since a first-round loss to Moses Itauma, but is looking forward to meeting Chisora again, who is coming off a loss to Deontay Wilder earlier this month.
At the end of last year, both teams were linked with each other, but they failed to reach an agreement.
“He says he wants to fight me and he’s not going to retire,” he said Sky Sports News.
“Not many boxers have trilogies in their career.

“I would love to fight him again.
“I think a trilogy would be great because we’re both at a stage in our careers where there won’t be a lot of running, a lot of moving around.
“We will stand there and trade.
“He doesn’t like me, I don’t like him.

“He doesn’t want to lose to me, I don’t want to lose to him.
“I would like to wear this.
“If Derek is earnest, he knows where I am. I will fight Derek Chisora tomorrow.”
David Benavidez believes that Canelo Alvarez will come to see how he will perform in Saturday’s match against Zurdo Ramirez.
Canelo has long been accused of avoiding a fight with Benavidez and has consistently distanced himself from a potential fight with him.
Alvarez is set to presence on Saturday at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas to support stablemate Jaime Munguia, who will face WBA super middleweight champion Armando Resendiz on the fight card.
Benavidez, however, believes the Mexican champion will actually come to see how he will do in his cruiserweight debut against Zurdo.
“It’s a large event,” the 29-year-old told reporters on Wednesday.

“You can judge the scale of the event because Canelo wasn’t even at Jaime Munguia’s last fight.
– He says yes [coming] for Munguia.
“He won’t come to see Munguia, he will come to see me up close.
“I don’t know if it’s about looking forward to the next fight, but you can see how everything turned out.
“I went to his fights, now he comes to my fights.
“I don’t need to say anything more.”
This will be the first time in six years that Alvarez has not fought on the Cinco De Mayo weekend, and his return from his loss to Terence Crawford will likely take place on September 12 in Riyad.

The Arizona native will become a three-division world champion if he defeats Ramirez, but he later vowed to return to delicate heavyweight to face Dmitry Bivol in an undisputed title bout.
“My plan wasn’t just to abandon the delicate heavyweight division,” he further said Ariel Helwani show.
“My plan was this [to] come up, win two titles, come back and make this fight with me and Bivol even bigger.
“My dream is to become unified champion.
“It would be wise for me to go back downstairs.”
