Former British and Commonwealth heavyweight champion Dereck Chisora was touted for a comeback in September or October by promoter Frank Warren last month and is still to announce his next fight.
Chisora, 27, lost his titles to Tyson Fury in July when he was on the wrong end a unanimous points decision to the Manchester-based traveller after a messy fight at Wembley Arena.
'Del Boy' has now had enough time away to contemplate his first loss, along with the fact that he blew his chance to face Wladimir Klitschko in December and the giant Ukrainian is now set to face Jean-Marc Mormeck instead.
Writing in his column for The Sun last month, Warren said that Chisora would return in either September or October against a top-rated contender but that now seems impossible for the timescale and Chisora may just be able to scrape onto the huge November 5th bill at Wembley which features Ricky Burns and George Groves in title bouts if he is fit enough.
More realistically for the Finchley fighter though would be a comeback nearer Christmas and with his weight the highest of his career for the bout with Fury, Chisora may need a warm-up fight before thinking of a top-ranked contender.
