Dereck Chisora (33-13) vs Gerald Washington (20-5-1) Filip was considered fortunate by many last time out when he outpointed the massive Chinese star Zhilei Zhang, so he will need to be impressive here as he continues to mark time ahead of a possible title shot.

As you can see none of the top names have bouts scheduled now – we’ll update this page as soon as they do: Anthony Joshua (25-3) vs Robert Helenius (32-4)

Here is how the heavyweight division currently looks from a scheduling perspective – including every major heavyweight fight. There are plenty of other great upcoming fights to look forward on a Friday or Saturday night – but here is the heavyweight schedule as it stands.

But then Deontay Wilder won an arbitration ruling to force Fury to accept their trilogy match after all. The British world champions had been due to meet in Saudi Arabia in August 2021, with potentially an immediate rematch in November or December. Sadly we are still waiting for Tyson Fury vs Anthony and there is a chance it never happens, but there is still plenty to look forward to when it comes to boxing’s marquee heavyweight division.
