DEREK CHISORA put his faith in England winning the Euros as he placed a £6,000 bet with a massive £36,000 at stake.
The heavyweight was clearly convinced by the Three Lions as they secured a famous 2-0 win against arch rivals Germany.
Chisora, 37, showed off his bet slip and posted: “IT’S COMING HOME.”
Goals from Raheem Sterling and Harry Kane saw England progress into the quarter-finals.
Chisora has never been shy of putting his money where his mouth is when it comes to wagers.
He stuck £8,500 on Billy Joe Saunders, 31, upsetting the odds against Canelo Alvarez, 30, in May, which would have paid out £54,000.
Unfortunately, Saunders suffered a gruesome eye injury in round eight and was pulled out by his corner.
For Chris Eubank Jr, beaten by the former two-weight champion in 2014, he earned himself £10,000 after putting the same amount on a Canelo KO.
Eubank Jr, 31, later donated his winnings to the Rockinghorse Children’s charity in Brighton.
Ukraine or Sweden now await England in the quarter-finals, as manager Gareth Southagate’s hailed his side, who are riding high.

Southgate, 50, said: “The players were immense, right the way through the team. The energy was incredible in the stadium.
“For those people, after such a difficult year at home, to have that enjoyment we’ve given them today was very special.
“It didn’t need me to say it but when we got in the dressing room we were talking about Saturday already.
“Today’s been an immense performance but at a cost emotionally and physically, we need to make sure we recover well.
“It’s a dangerous moment for us. We have the feeling round the country that we only have to turn up to win the thing, but it’s going to be an immense challenge from here on.
“The players feet are on the ground, they should feel confident from the way they’ve played, but we came here with an intention and we’ve not achieved that yet.”
