David Haye begs Tyson Fury to ramp up the fun factor in Derek Chisora trilogy after ‘unappealing, uninspiring 2nd win’

TYSON FURY has been urged to put on an extra special show in his Tottenham trilogy with Derek Chisora.

The Wythenshawe warrior will renew his rivalry with the former world title challenger on Saturday night – despite handily beating him in their 2011 and 2014 domestic dust-ups.

And former WBA heavyweight champ David Haye believes the Gypsy King should put himself in the “firing line” to give the paying punters their money’s worth.

He told The Metro: “The way I see it, if Fury is as confident as winning this fight as he says he is, instead of boxing long, maybe he will get up close to Derek and go toe-to-toe and give the fans a bit more entertainment.

“Because it could be a replay of the second fight where Tyson turned southpaw and just basically killed him, outmanoeuvred him.

“It was very unappealing and very uninspiring.

“So let’s hope as the WBC heavyweight champion of the world, he will give people going to the stadium value for money.

“To do that, he might have to come into the firing line a little more than he would normally do. He knows Derek.”

Haye believes fans won’t be satisfied if Fury, 34, tries to box his way to a decision victory.

The Hayemaker said: “He has done 20-odd rounds with him.

“I think the best thing for everyone is for Tyson to go out there and match him in the middle and have a punch-up.

“Don’t go long, your 6ft 10in, obviously you can go out there keep him away, you’ve done it twice before.

“You’ve already beaten him at range easily.

“How about doing it in a more fan-friendly way?

“Get up close, let Derek tee off. Give us some entertainment.

“If he is the champion of the people, that’s what he has to do.

“It is a fight not many people were calling for so he has to make it the best of the situation.

“Give Derek more chance of success and it gives us more chance of seeing a knockout victory and giving the fans what they want.”

Fury enters his third defence of the WBC heavyweight title on the back of a brutal knockout victory over Dillian Whyte at Wembley in April.

Chisora, meanwhile, was last in action in July in a rematch with Kubrat Pulev – which he won via split decision.
