Frank Warren had no time for Derek Chisora’s explosive recent swipes at him, insisting the heavyweight should ‘kiss his backside’ for everything he’s done for him in his career.
Chisora went on an incredible rant ahead of his fight with David Price, branding Warren a ‘dinosaur’ and telling him to retire.
Warren and Chisora have worked together several times down the years and the promoter hit back at the veteran British fighter.
‘Listen, I’m a dinosaur? This dinosaur will be there with the heavyweight champion in Daniel Dubois when he’s (Chisora) well and truly gone,’ Warren told IFLTV.
‘Both guys (Chisora and David Price) turned down the opportunity to fight Daniel Dubois. One of them loses and it could be the end of their career.
‘The future of heavyweight boxing is with the dinosaur. That’s where he’s at.
‘This dinosaur will be around a little bit longer, so he shouldn’t worry about it. As for the nonsense comments he makes, it is what it is.
‘He should really come and kiss my backside for what I’ve done for him in this career. But, that’s another story.’
Chisora backtracked on his comments after causing a real stir, admitting Warren did not owe him any money and he held no ill will towards the promoter.
Warren tried and failed to make a fight between Chisora and Joe Joyce after Joseph Parker was forced to pull out of their October clash with illness.
‘His nonsense comments don’t register with me,’ Warren insisted.
‘I don’t know what they’re all about. I made an offer to his manager, David Haye, for his man to fight Joyce.’
For the avoidance of doubt @frankwarren_tv isn’t in my list of debtors, I just like to chat sh*t sometimes ??? pic.twitter.com/xJSfpF3l69
