Could time be up for one star?

Derek Chisora believes Oleksandr Usyk should walk away from boxing if he defeats Tyson Fury for a second time this December.

The pair collide at the end of the year with three world titles up for grabs and a win for Usyk will mean he holds two wins over Fury as well as victories over Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois.

Usyk has reigned as heavyweight champion since 2021 after dominating at cruiserweight where he was also undisputed ruler.

The Ukrainian star has not given any hints about what the future holds past Fury, but Chisora, who lost to Usyk in 2020, thinks there’s nothing left for him to achieve.

“I’ve got a feeling after this fight in December he’ll retire,” said Chisora when speaking on Talksport.

“What’s the point? You've got all the belts, you’ve beaten them all, and you retire unbeaten. He wants to hang out with his wife and go and fight the war.”
