THE third fight between Tyson Fury and Derek Chisora is a hard sell. Fury was a comfortable winner when they met in 2011 and even more so in their 2014 rematch.

Chisora, a 9/1 underdog, will turn 39 a few weeks after the fight and has endured some hellacious slugfests in recent years. It is frankly impossible to picture a scenario where he wins.

But we’re going to be fed that possibility.  , after all. At an outdoor stadium in December, no less.
