Fury blasted for Chisora ‘kill’ threat

Tyson Fury has come in for fierce criticism after threatening to kill Dereck Chisora in their domestic heavyweight showdown at Wembley Arena on July 23, insisting, “I’m going to snap your chin off your body”.

The unbeaten 6ft 9in giant ramped up the war of words with British and Commonwealth champion Chisora during a conference call to publicise their fight.
