Wilder lands Chisora fight for April 4th

It was announced late Friday that heavyweights Deontay Wilder (pictured) and Derek Chisora will do battle at the O2 Arena in London on April 4th.  When the bruising heavyweights clash in a little over nine weeks time, it will be the 100 combined fights between Wilder and Chisora, with each guy having 50 apiece.  Wilder (44-4-1, 43 KOs), the former WBC heavyweight champion, snapped a two-fight losing streak in [a low-level comeback], stopping Tyrrell Herndon by seventh-round TKO at the end of June. Now, he looks to put together back-to-back wins against one of England's top heavyweights in the last 15 years. Chisora (36-13, 23 KOs) is [no spring chicken either but ] is on a career resurgence, having won three consecutive fights over Gerald Washington, Joe Joyce, and Otto Wallin, respectively.
