The heavyweight division is back on Saturday night, headlining a card on DAZN live from the Co-op Live Arena in Manchester, UK. 41-year-old veteran Derek Chisora (35-13, 23 KOs) will face top contender Otto Wallin (27-2, 15 KOs) in a ten-round bout titled “The Last Dance.”
After beating Joe Joyce in April of last year, Chisora vowed that he would retire, but not until he had one last fight in Manchester. Who knows if a win over Wallin will change his mind but for now, Saturday looks to be it. His opponent Wallin had only one fight in 2024, a first-round knockout of Onoriode Ehwarieme in Atlantic City. Wallin would have fought one round in 13 months, so there may be some ring rust when he enters the ring with Chisora on Saturday night.
Per DraftKings SportsBook, Otto Wallin is the favorite at -225, and Derek Chisora is the underdog at +175.
These timings could change due to the length of the undercard fights.
Join us for @DerekWarChisora’s final flourish on UK soil, in what promises to be an eventful build-up
