I'm like herpes, says Dereck Chisora

The former world title challenger will look to win the British title for the second time on the undercard of Anthony Joshua's IBF heavyweight title defence against Eric Molina in a fight which has also been sanctioned as a WBC heavyweight world title eliminator.

The bad blood between the pair was evident at their first press conference in London on Wednesday and despite six defeats on his resume, Chisora has vowed to bounce back and return to the world title scene.

"It's a big day on December 10, for me I've lost six fights, people write me off but you can't write me off," the 32-year-old said.

"I'm like herpes - one minute I'm gone, then one minute I pop back up. So it's like you have to see the doctor and get a pill but then suddenly I pop back up.

"In terms of my opponent, there's nothing much I'm scared of, he doesn't bring much to the table. He's got a good selection of punches but he hasn't got a power punch so I'm looking forward to the fight.

"All I see is Dillian on the canvas."

Chisora gate-crashed the unveiling of Whyte's signing with promoters Matchroom Boxing earlier this year and Whyte has frequently stated that he got the better of 'Del Boy' during their battles in sparring years ago.

"Dereck (Chisora) is deluded as everyone knows," Whyte, who has vowed to end Chisora's career, said.

"He thought he could go to Germany and knock out (Kubrat) Pulev. He showed no aggression and no heart in that fight. All he was doing is coming forward and getting hit in the face all night long.

"The same thing is going to happen again. In this fight I'm definitely looking to knock this guy out.

"He's a tough guy, he's game but I think his time is gone. I'm looking forward to seeing him on the Thursday, collecting the bins outside my neighbourhood after I put this beat down on him. I'm going to make an end to Dereck's career."

Whyte continuously mentioned the personal life of the Finchley man throughout the press conference but Chisora laughed off his attempts to get under his skin.

"I'm not getting TV money for this fight so me selling it for you, I'm not going to do," Chisora said.

"You can say what you want about my past. I'm not going to get crazy as people may think I would in this press conference. I don't need to get crazy.

"I think the British Boxing Board of Control has made enough money off me."
