Close Friendship
Despite being close friends, the duo has set social media abuzz with a mocked-up fight poster teasing a potential showdown in December.
Loyalty in the Ring
Bellew, 41, has openly supported Chisora in the past, even facing backlash from TV bosses for his enthusiastic cheers during Chisora's fights. Bellew expressed loyalty towards Chisora, citing their close friendship and mutual support.
Retirement Plans
Since retiring in 2018 after a knockout loss to Oleksandr Usyk, Bellew has ventured into punditry and commentary. On the other hand, Chisora is determined to continue fighting and aims to reach a milestone of 50 fights after his recent victory over Joyce.
