This fight will be the 50th in Chisora's career, and he noted that it could be his last.

While the date and city have been announced, the opponent has not yet been determined.

In a post on Instagram, Chisora shared:

“Yo, let me tell you something. Are you ready? Let me tell you something. We are going back to Manchester, 13th of December. Road to 50, shut down. Do you understand? So book your hotels, book your restaurants. Me and Queensberry, we are coming to shut it down in Manchester, 13th of December. Opponent will be announced soon. I had one, but the big boss took him. Can’t really argue with what the big boss wants. Road to 50, in Manchester, shut down. The last dance two, happening in Manchester. War!”

After defeating Wallin, Chisora asked Manchester fans who they would like to see in his next match.

He showed photos of Oleksandr Usyk, Anthony Joshua, and Daniel Dubois, urging the crowd to cheer loudly for the chosen opponent.

Chisora is currently the mandatory challenger for the IBF title held by Usyk.

However, the 38-year-old Ukrainian will first meet the winner of the fight between Joseph Parker and Fabio Wardley on October 25.

Anthony Joshua, for his part, is unlikely to return to the ring until next year due to elbow surgery.

Dubois could also become a potential opponent for Chisora, but this is unlikely.

The show on December 13 in Manchester is expected to be highlighted by performances from British boxing star Moses Itauma.

However, according to The Ring, Itauma will not be boxing Chisora.

Reuters All eyes are now on December 13, when Chisora will enter the ring in Manchester. This is a special moment for the boxer, as the 50th fight could become the culmination of his career. Whether this will indeed be his last match remains a question that fans eagerly await an answer to. No less interesting is who he will choose as his opponent, as the name could significantly influence the course of his career.
