Derek Chisora was not pleased with his greeting from comedian Troy Hawke as he arrived at Westfield’s Shepherd’s Bush for his weigh-in ahead of his fight against Gerald Washintgon this evening at London's O2 Arena. In fact, he was so triggered and annoyed by it, he even threatened him after being called 'adorable' and a 'dangerous looking tablecloth.'“You look divine, a one man efficacious fun fair, I love it. Couldn’t love it harder,” Hawke said to Chisora as he passed him. Del Boy, however, appeared to ignore the comment until later when he told Hawke to stop calling him “adorable.”Hawke went viral during his mini interview series with Manchester City during their 2022/2023 pre-season trip to America and has since been recruited to other events including the Genesis Scottish Open and again with Manchester City as they celebrated winning the treble at the end of last season. But, unlike the City players, it seems Chisora did not appreciate Hawke’s sense of humour.“Tell me I’m adorable again, and I’ll f*** you up,” the heavyweight told Hawke in a later scene. Despite being a heavyweight boxer and clearly not someone to mess with, Hawke stood his ground and almost continued to poke the bear with his jabs and humerous remarks.
