Derek Chisora to have trilogy fight with Dillian Whyte, David Haye claims

October 22, 2025

Del Boy, 41, is due to have his 50th career fight on December 13 at the Co-op Live Arena in Manchester, England, and the Hayemaker, 45, has now alleged Chisora has verbally agreed to share the ring with the Body Snatcher, 37, once again.

Speaking with The Sun newspaper, Haye said: “[Chisora] and Dillian Whyte are doing a third fight.

“So I’m looking forward to that sort of Christmas cracker ... Their first two fights were epic battles, kind of like the UK heavyweight version of [Arturo] Gatti-[Micky] Ward, where they give it the hype before, and they turn up and both let bombs fly.

“Obviously, Chisora’s coming off some great form, last four victories on the spin. Dillian’s coming off some terrible form with Moses Itauma, but I’m pretty sure Dillian wouldn’t have taken this fight if he didn’t think he could beat Derek.

“He’s beaten him twice before, knocked him out last time. I was with Derek last night at the Pride of Britain awards, and he’s really buzzing about it.”

Chisora had previously shared the ring with Whyte in 2016 and 2018, where he was defeated by split decision in the first fight, and was knocked out in the 11th round of the second.

Haye confirmed Chisora was planning the upcoming bout to be the last in his professional boxing career, and that Del Boy was hoping to claim vengeance over the Body Snatcher.

Hayes continued: “He wants to set the record straight for the trilogy fight.

“He’s gonna be in great shape and with Dillian Whyte, it’s really nice to see two fighters from the same era, loads of history, and simply doing it.”

This comes after it was claimed Chisora was in talks to fight Jarrell Miller, 37, for his final bout.

The pair were initially due to share the ring earlier this year, but the fight was canceled due to a reported contractual dispute with Big Baby’s former promoter Dmitry Salita.

Before that, Chisora was in negotiations to face Zhilei Zhang, 42, with Big Bang’s advisor Terry Lane recently confirming they had agreed to the bout in principle, and were waiting for a decision from Del Boy’s team.
