Heavyweight boxers, Tyson Fury and Dereck Chisora, have set the stage for their long anticipated rematch in Britain. The pugilists will fight for the British Heavyweight boxing title on November 22, 2014 in London, England’s ExCel arena. Fury won the first fight in 2011.

Recently, Fury ran afoul of the British Boxing Board of Control over his profane, sexually explicit speech at a press conference with Chisora, where men, women and children were present. Fury initially stated he is refusing to attend the hearing, despite the fact the council warned it would result in the revocation of his boxing license. However, he had a change of heart and made peace with the boxing board and paid a $25,000 fine, paving the way for the fight to proceed.
