Derek Chisora HEADBUTTS Deliveroo rider during shocking brawl over cyclist’s refusal to dismount his bike close to busy London restaurant with the fiery heavyweight boxer’s two young kids watching on | HO
Footage has captured British boxer Derek Chisora appearing to headbutt a Deliveroo rider outside a restaurant.
Chisora, 40, had been having a meal with his two daughters on a street in Hampstead when the incident occurred.
Mail Sport understands Chisora asked the rider to dismount after they entered the narrow street, suggesting children and dogs could be hit.
An argument ensued after the cyclist refused, with Chisora allegedly having been provoked first before retaliating to the Deliveroo rider.
Police were reportedly called to the scene, but no arrests were made following the incident.

Footage was taken during the incident, amid claims Chisora had earlier been provoked leading to the confrontation.
Chisora appeared to be seen holding the driver, who was heard shouting ‘get the f*** off me, bro’ and ‘I swear, get off me now’.
The Deliveroo driver was then seen throwing his hands in the direction of Chisora, who responded with a headbutt.
Shocked diners were seen watching on amid the confrontation.
The incident comes just over a week before Chisora returns to the ring.
Chisora is set to face Joe Joyce in an all-British heavyweight contest at the O2 Arena in London on July 27.
The fight will be ‘Del Boy’s’ 48th of his professional career, which spans 17-years in the heavyweight division.
Chisora last fought in the ring last August when he overcame Gerald Washington.

The victory saw Chisora bounce back from his defeat to Tyson Fury in December 2022, the second time the boxer had beaten when challenging for a world title.
Chisora, who made his pro debut in 2007, has claimed he plans to have three more fights before hanging up his gloves.
His opponent Joyce heads into the fight off the back of a victory over Kash Ali in March.
Joyce had suffered back-to-back defeats to China’s Zhilei Zhang in 2023, the only losses of his 18 fight professional career.
