Dereck Chisora refuses to rule out rematch with Dillian Whyte
DERECK CHISORA has refused to rule out a rematch with Dillian Whyte.
Dereck Chisora's career was given a major setback last night
Chisora’s chances of reviving his career suffered a major setback last night after he lost via a points decision to European heavyweight champion Agit Kabayel in Monaco.
Chisora struggled to contain the German, who found success with the jab.
Two judges scored the fight 115-113 and 115-114 in favour of Kabayel, while the third marked it as a 114-114 draw.
Chisora had no answer and walked into a few right hands and uppercuts which has damaged his chances of fighting for a major title anytime soon.
