Dillian Whyte beat Jermaine Franklin in his last fight

According to the Daily Mail, Chisora has revealed negotiations are ongoing for a third bout and they are “pushing to get a deal done now.”

The two put on a fight of the year contender in 2016 which ebbed and flowed throughout.

Whyte ultimately emerged victor in a disputed split-decision verdict.

But he left no doubt in their rematch two years later with a brutal left-hook knockout in round 11.

Promoter Eddie Hearn has always left the door open to a trilogy, such was the excitement of the first two fights.

Both Chisora, 38, and Whyte, 34, even opened the door to taking their rivalry to the MMA cage.

Whyte last fought in November, beating Jermaine Franklin on points and believed it would earn him a rematch with Anthony Joshua.

But Joshua, 33, instead returns on Saturday at the O2 Arena against Franklin, 29, despite the American’s loss.

Meanwhile, Chisora faced Tyson Fury, 34, in December in their trilogy bout but lost to the Gypsy King for the third time in the series.

Chisora left Hearn and sports streaming service DAZN to do so and the duo continue to have a love-hate relationship.

And the promoter even claimed Del Boy is the “most challenging” fighter he has worked with.

Hearn said during the On A Mission podcast: “It’s maybe Derek Chisora. He has gotten better as time’s gone on.

“But he’s always looking for an edge and is always on the wind up. But he’s a good guy.”
