STOP THE FIGHTS

DEREK CHISORA is back and we’re supposed to be excited.

The British heavyweight is facing fellow veteran Gerald Washington on the undercard of Anthony Joshua against Dillian Whyte next Saturday at the O2 in London.

And the simple question is, who wants to see this?

Who wants to see two fighters with a combined age of 80 slugging it out?

It can’t be the fans judging by the reaction on social media and it can’t be for the good of the sport.

They are two boxers with 18 defeats between them and more miles on the clock than an old banger with no hope of passing an MOT.

Which begs the question, why are these two being passed fit to box?
