Heavyweight boxer Derek Chisora rides army tank with Nigel Farage to press event
Farage joined Chisora’s tank arrival as the boxer used the stunt to promote his 50th pro fight and final bout, while Wilder called it a test.
- On Thursday, British heavyweight Derek Chisora arrived at a York Hall press conference in an army tank alongside Reform UK leader Nigel Farage, ahead of his Saturday bout against Deontay Wilder at London's O2 Arena.
- Saturday's showdown marks the 50th professional fight for both veterans, with the 42-year-old Chisora pledging to retire after the 12-round contest against the former heavyweight world champion Wilder.
- While Chisora arrived in a playful mood declaring "f*** it, let's go," Wilder warned of a "detonation" on fight night, emphasizing contrasting approaches to the heavyweight clash.
- Chisora defended his friendship with Farage against racism allegations, stating "I don't call it racism, I call it politics," while the politician side-stepped attending the press conference.
- Entering this weekend's critical test, Wilder described his mental preparation as a "reinvented" journey, though the 40-year-old has lost four of his last six bouts.
