    Derek Chisora insists Oleksandr Usyk will have ref and judges on side so it’s KO or nothing

    DEREK CHISORA is scared the only way he can beat Oleksandr Usyk at Wembley Arena on Saturday is with a Halloween knockout.
    North London heavyweight Chisora believes his Ukrainian opponent is so popular he will be fighting him, the ref and the judges.

    He insisted: “I don’t think I will get the victory without a clean knockout because everyone will be on his side.
    “For this fight I’m fighting a few people — Usyk, the ref and the judges. So to get a victory I have to knock him out.
    “But it motivates me more, people thinking I don’t have a chance in hell.”
    Chisora, 36, believes Usyk’s gap-toothed grin, slick southpaw style and hilarious social media posts have won him thousands of English fans.

    The 2012 Olympic golden boy and former undisputed cruiserweight king has more than one million online followers — and Chisora reckons he will be the underdog despite being on home soil.
    Chisora, who will weigh in at around 18st, said: “Usyk is a good fighter and is loved by the English fans.
    “Everything about him is likeable. The way he boxes and carries himself around since he won an Olympic gold and the Muhammad Ali Trophy — there is nothing to hate about the guy.
    “If I come out now and start calling him a douchebag then it makes me look like the one with anger problems and I don’t have them with him. I like him, I am a big fan of his.”

    Pound-for-pound superstar Usyk, 33, arrived at the Wembley fight hotel on Monday night and settled in with a game of darts, throwing a bullseye with just his second arrow.
    When asked what essentials he will be taking into the hotel, Chisora said: “I love playing old records, like Ray Charles and Motown, so I will bring my own record player in because I have to play it loud.
    “I will have my Union Jack flag and probably my massage chair.”
    Chisora’s manager, former two-weight world champ David Haye, has backed his man to batter the southpaw trickster.
    Haye said: “It’ll be a Halloween fright night with the two going at each other.
    “Is Usyk going to be mentally prepared to go to the dark and scary places that Derek is going to bring to the table? I don’t think so.”
    Haye took to Twitter last week to offer £1,000 to anyone brave enough to spar Chisora — though SunSport understands only a few oddballs turned up.

    Mike Tyson does not know meaning of ‘exhibition’ fight and will ‘swing for fences’ against Roy Jones Jr

    FREDDIE ROACH claims Mike Tyson does not know the meaning of an ‘exhibition’ fight and will ‘swing for the fences’ against Roy Jones Jr.
    Tyson returns to the ring on November 28 in an eight-round pay-per-view spectacle, 15 years after retiring.

    The bout will not be professionally sanctioned or affect their records.
    But Roach – who first trained Mike Tyson in 2002 – tipped Iron Mike to roll back the clock and knock out Jones.
    He also warned him to avoid taking a left hook to the body.
    He told Press Box PR: “I spoke with Mike Tyson about ten days ago and I told him he doesn’t know the meaning of the word ‘exhibition.’ 

    “He laughed but he knew what I meant.  Mike is an old school fighter who only has one gear – forward. 
    “And I know when that bell rings, Mike will be swinging for the fences. 
    “I think Mike knocks Roy Jones out. But I did warn Mike that Roy has to be careful of Roy’s left to the body. 
    “That’s the punch Roy used to knock out Virgil Hill.”

    Tyson, 54, and Jones, 51, will fight for the WBC Frontline Battle Belt next month.
    The WBC have regularly designed new belts for blockbuster bouts, notably creating the ‘Adolfo Lopez Mateos’ strap for the rematch between Gennady Golovkin and Canelo Alvarez.
    Tyson Fury also won the WBC ‘Mayan’ title when he outpointed Otto Wallin in September 2019.
    And they designed a ‘Money’ belt for the extravaganza between Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor in 2017, which cost £310,000 to create.
