# Chisora-Kownacki In The Works For Summer Fight

Dereck Chisora could face Adam Kownacki this summer.

[Eddie Hearn told Boxing Social’s Andi Purewal](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLdO9DH-c-w) that the Polish heavyweight is one of the names in the to face the British veteran. All that is required is the contract signature of the 33-year-old and the fight is on.

Chisora (32-12, 23 KOs) has been championing the bout on Instagram and has already put pen to paper on his side.

July 9 had been a mooted date for the 45th fight of the 38-year-old’s career. Conor Benn had been scheduled to go on that day too, but Hearn told Boxing Social earlier in the week that they move to a month or two later for a [“big, big fight”](https://wp.boxing-social.com/news/eddie-hearn-teases-big-fight-for-benn/) in welterweight deep waters for ‘The Destroyer’.

Both Chisora and Kownacki (20-2, 15 KOs) are coming off back-to-back defeats [against Joseph Parker](https://wp.boxing-social.com/news/parker-too-good-for-brave-chisora-in-rematch/) and Robert Helenius, respectively.

With The O2 Arena, London the likely venue Hearn will be banking on a lively UK based Polish support. A vocal contingent turned out for Michal Cieslak’s cruiserweight world title challenge against Lawrence Okolie in February and will likely attend in greater numbers next time around.
