Tyson Fury had suggested he would never get back in the ring for a professional boxing match after defeating Dilian Whyte back in April to defend his strap.
That ended in a routine sixth-round knockout against his mandatory challenger, and it had been speculated that the only thing that would bring him back was an undisputed scrap against fellow champion, Ukraine's Oleksandr Usyk.
However he is now back in the ring against his old foe, Derek Chisora.
The pair have fought twice previously, with Fury winning both fights, and after back-to-back defeats to New Zealander Joseph Parker, he has unexpectedly been given a shot for a world championship, though he did recently beat Kubrat Pulev.
