Derek “WAR” Chisora, one of Britain’s most fearless heavyweights, has officially announced his final fight, confirming that he will step into the ring for the 50th time on December 13 in Manchester. But true to the unpredictability of boxing, Chisora won’t be the headliner. WBN understands that rising knockout sensation Moses Itauma will take the spotlight, with Chisora accepting a co-feature slot in a card designed to showcase the next generation while giving fans one last taste of the veteran’s relentless style. Promoter Frank Warren decided against throwing the Londoner to his young lion as he bows out in front of the UK fans. Chisora also fails to land the world title shot he wanted as he broke the news himself on Instagram, delivering his trademark energy. The Last Dance for Derek Chisora “Yo, let me tell you something, are you ready? Let me tell you something; you already know. We are going back to Manchester on the 13th of December, ‘Road to 50’ shut down, do you understand? “So book your hotels, book your restaurants. Me and Queensbury, we are coming to shut it down in Manchester on the 13th of December,” said Chisora. He added, “The opponent will be announced soon. I had one (Joseph Parker), but the big boss (Warren) took him (for Fabio Wardley). So, you can’t really argue when the big boss says what he wants. So, it happened. So, bump. ‘Road to 5o’ in Manchester, shut down. ‘The Last Dance II’ is happening in Manchester. Whoa!” The 41-year-old veteran has built a career on grit and spectacle, facing the sport’s elite, including David Haye and Tyson Fury. Fans can expect no less than full-throttle action on his farewell night. ‘The KO Artist’ Headlines While he won’t headline, Chisora promises to deliver fireworks, leaving it all in the ring for his loyal supporters. Despite Chisora’s farewell, the emphasis of this card will focus on Itauma’s rise, keeping the young knockout artist out of direct collision with Chisora while still providing fans with a blockbuster evening of heavyweight action. Both Chisora’s and Itauma’s opponents are yet to be confirmed. A Celebration of Chisora The man formerly known as ‘Del Boy’ isn’t just competing in another bout — it’s the celebration of a fighter who has never backed down, now set to share the stage with Britain’s next big heavyweight hope. Manchester on December 13 is shaping up to be a night where experience meets potential, with WAR reminding everyone why he’s one of the toughest men the division has seen. Queensberry will announce the card, tickets, and broadcast details in the coming weeks.
