Is Derek Chisora as good as Oleksandr Usyk? That’s what Tyson Fury , the loquacious WBC heavyweight titleholder, tried to sell at the news conference Thursday to announce his third fight with Chisora on Dec. 3 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London (ESPN+). Fury (32-0-1, 23 KOs) seemed to headed for a showdown with three-belt champion Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed title or a meeting with Anthony Joshua, but neither matchup could be made. Thus, he’ll rely on an old – 38 years old – standby in Chisora 33-12 (23 KOs). Usyk, the former undisputed cruiserweight champion, outpointed Joshua in back-to-back fights last year and in August.
