Derek Chisora tells Hearn: I'll take Povetkin's place and fight Whyte in 2 weeks!

Think of your brain Del FFS

**** it, why not. Sure he got rattled a couple of times by Usyk but probably nothing he couldn't walk off. Maybe two and a half weeks from now is a little too ridiculous, but 4 or 5? Not massively unreasonable if Whyte's up for it. Then Povetkin can fight the winner in January according to the current schedule. Something's telling me the BBoC won't be super thrilled by the idea though

Chisora ready to replace Povetkin in 2 and a half weeks after a close 12 rounder with Usyk only a few days ago! It's funny because short turnarounds used to be commonplace. If Chisora is fit to fight then I say why not?

It is not his fight. It is Povetkin's fight. Whyte KOed Chisora and Povetkin KOed Whyte. Why should loud mouth loser Chisora be taking the place of the man who won the fight???? Chisora should rest up and then go beat a mediocre guy or lose to a top guy as he always does. He is just a credible opponent and not a contender. He lost a close fight to Usyk who is not that good. He was not robbed and he lost by a couple of points no matter how much he insists he deserved to win. Knockouts happen, it's a part of the sport. Rahman and McCall knocked out Lennox Lewis Marquez, Sangsurat, Torrecampo knocked out Manny Pacquiao Brewster and Sanders knocked out Wladimir Klitschko So Whyte knocked out Chisora isn't such a big deal, there's no guarantee the same happens in the 3rd fight because the first two were extremely close round by round. Same goes for Povetkin vs Whyte situation obviously. And I'd have Povetkin vs Chisora as a 50/50... Thats a fight I'd like to see too.

Hearn will have to ring somebody in who? Is a top fighter, otherwise this is not going to be a Pay Per View service.

Do eeet. Chisora FTW :beerchug:

They'll just have Conor Benn headline. Fabio Wardley is fighting Lucas Browne and Babic is fighting Tom little on the undercard.
