15 days until Oleksandr Usyk vs. Tyson Fury, live on DAZN Pay-Per-View, and the whole boxing world is excited. 

The heavyweight title will be up for grabs and the two rivals have endured a tough journey on their way to this point. 

In Fury’s 15th fight, he faced Derek Chisora for the British title and DAZN News looks back at one of Fury’s most impressive wins.  

Tyson Fury and Derek Chisora both possessed impressive records when they clashed in the summer of 2011 with domestic glory on the line. 

With some of the titles becoming the property of the Klitschko Brothers, Fury and Chisora were hoping to become the future of the division, and this fight would tell us more about who was better qualified. 

Both had decent amateur pedigrees as they reigned as ABA champions, but who was better qualified to hit the top of the heavyweight scene. 

Chisora had bulldozed his way past several opponents as his front-foot strategy forced many opponents to surrender from his relentless style. 

For Fury, his rise was performed with a more textbook approach as he boxed his way past his rivals hoping to secure victory with the minimum of fuss.

Chisora began the fight the favourite in some people's eyes as he had made lighter work of his foes on his path to becoming British champion against Danny Williams in 2010. 

Fury had endured a tough night against John McDermott where he was controversially ruled the winner despite many thinking McDermott should have got the nod. 

Although Chisora had his backers, it was clear to see that Fury was the better man early in the contest as he used his superior skillset to build a handsome lead. 

Chisora tried several ways to insert his dominance on the contests, but whatever he tried, Fury had the answer and the dominance in the initial stages of the bout remained throughout. 

At the end of 12 one-sided rounds, Fury was declared a clear winner with scores of 118-111 and 117-112 x 2 all going in his favour. 

Fury and Chisora would meet two more times in the ring, with Fury stopping his great rival in 2014 before repeating the result eight years later.
