Derek Chisora made a dramatic entrance for what is expected to be his final professional boxing press conference, arriving atop a tank. The veteran English boxer, accompanied by politician Nigel Farage, rolled into the media event ahead of his farewell fight this Saturday night (April 4th) at London's O2 Arena.
Chisora, known by his moniker 'WAR', is an outspoken supporter of Farage's political party. Reports emerged days ago that he wished for the politician to attend his 50th and final bout live. British media indicated that Chisora had offered to pick up Farage in a tank for the occasion.
For Wilder, this fight will also mark his 50th career appearance, but the American has no plans to hang up his gloves like his opponent. Instead, he aims to continue his ascent in the heavyweight division and unify titles after a victory in London. A video from the press conference can be viewed here:
