In 2021, Derek Chisora agreed to join Anthony Joshua’s sports management firm 258 MGT.
Chisora had been managed by former opponent and rival David Haye since 2018, but the unlikely partnership ended in July when Chisora lost fights to Joseph Parker and Oleksandr Usyk.
In search of a new challenge in his boxing career, he becomes the latest British fighter to join forces with 258 MGT.
