Chisora is predicting the upset in Egypt by picking Rico to beat Usyk! Chisora has a reasonably decent hit rate on predictions in recent times. No one gets them all right but he recently picked Dubois to beat Wardley.

Because then he'll look like a genius if the miracle upset happens and no one will pick him up on it when it doesn't.
If he genuinely believes Usyk will lose (he doesn't) he should put his money where his mouth is.
A small difference between Chisora' opinion and the opinion of all the chaps behind their little keyboards is that Derek has fought Usyk and did pretty OK.
Being a good boxer doesn't necessarily make you a good analyst. Do you think he's making a solid prediction here?
There is no reality that exists where a 100% Usyk loses to a 50% boxer. Even if that boxer is bigger than him as we've already seen with Usyk facing larger 100% boxers in AJ and Fury.
Rico's only chance is a miracle KO punch landing, but that is only because Usyk is simply not 100% anymore. Even 75% Usyk shouldn't lose this... Let's be real.
We live in an age where people can make uninformed predictions loudly which are good for algorithms. This is part of that noise and if you want to remain sane in this digital age you have to learn to tune it out.
I'm still not sure why I'm supposed to care about Simon Jordan either. Apparently successful in business although failed in his only sporting endeavour (football ownership). Very likely scores high on Dark Triad traits (narcissism, Machiavellinaism and psychopathy) and people get taken in. Like a lot of other media figures.

I can't listen to even 5 minutes of Chisora, little at all 50.
Him saying Rico will beat Usyk isn't that impossible - it can only be via KO, but based on what we've seen from Usyk, the chances aren't big. Still, don't exclude that turn of events.
I am not sure if he will lose his shot at Kabayel, depending on whether the WBC title will be considered vacant (as in the case with IBF), or Rico will be crowned as the champion. If the first, Usyk might be the one to compete for it, surely the other will be Agit.
