Derek Chisora has confirmed he is in talks with Dillian Whyte for a trilogy fight this summer.
The two heavyweight boxers have faced each other twice before with Whyte emerging victorious from both contests.
Sportsmail caught up with Chisora at the press conference for Anthony Joshua’s clash with Jermaine Franklin. When asked about a trilogy bout, Chisora said they are ‘pushing to get a deal done now’ and insisted he would knock Whyte out.
He did not confirm which round Whyte would go down in, but told his fans to stay tuned.
Chisora and Whyte first went to war in 2016.

The contest went the distance and Whyte was declared the winner by a contentious split decision. As a result, Chisora triggered his rematch clause and the pair met again two years later.
This time Whyte knocked Chisora out with a brutal left hook in the 11th round.
Chisora and Whyte put their feud behind them shortly after the rematch and become friends.
However, it appears they could be going to war once again as Chisora has told Sportsmail they are locked in negotiations for a trilogy bout.
