Chisora was also victorious in his last bout, beating Gerald Washington by decision on the Anthony Joshua-Robert Helenius undercard last August.

But at 40 years old, Chisora may not have much left in the tank, and there have been calls for the Brit to retire.

The same can be said for 38-year-old Joe Joyce, who is still hoping to challenge for a world title before his career ends.

If Chisora loses, it would be the 14th of his career, while a third defeat for Joyce would completely spell the end of his world champion hopes.
