Whyte says he will take the fight immediately if Chisora is serious.
“If Derek is serious, he knows where I am. I will fight Derek Chisora tomorrow,” Whyte told Sky Sports Boxing. “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.”
The rivalry dates back to 2016 and 2018, when Whyte took a split decision in their first fight and when Chisora was stopped in the 11th round of the rematch. Both were tough fights, and Whyte is again leaning on that history as he tries to rebuild.
“I put him to sleep once. I gave him one of the best sleeps he’s ever had in his entire life,” Whyte said. “It’s always going to be a great battle because we’re going to stand and trade.”
Chisora has been linked with retirement following his recent loss to Deontay Wilder, but Whyte believes the chance for revenge could bring him back.
Whyte said he is targeting a quick turnaround and wants the trilogy this summer.
“I would love to make this fight happen in the next few months. I’ll be ready in May or June. If he wants it, I’ll be ready,” Dillian says.
Beyond Chisora, Whyte defeated former champions Andy Ruiz Jr. and Wilder mentioned as opponents he would take, along with lesser-known names linked to rankings. Still, the Chisora fight is the one he keeps coming back to.
At this point, it feels less like unfinished business and more like a last trusted sell for both of them.
