Pretty creative from Derek. All the best in what he says is his last fight.

I am surprised with Joe Joyce's conditioning 'If we can correlate his weight, with past performances. Joe Joyce when he has been in and around this weight, has never performed at his absolute best'.
Derek Chisora actually from experience, has quite a vast operational window 'I personally prefer Chisora in the latter stages of his career, when he has come into his fights around the high 240 or 250 + pounds mark'.
Chisora best attributes have always seemed to decrease, whenever he started getting down to the low 240 pounds region and below 'Especially in the latter stages of his career. This was most evident in his rematch vs Dillian Whyte'.
During the Derek Chisora vs Dillian Whyte rematch 'Chisora in my opinion, was overstrained. There was too much of a dramatic sudden altercation in his training lifestyle, Chisora durability appeared way off in that fight. Which is always a sign of a fighter overtraining, and exhausting their abilities to physiologically adapt in the time frame'.
I would say for this fight, Derek Chisora seems to have trained very well, and has at least given himself the best opportunity to win.
To conclude: Joe Joyce is still the favourite in this fight. But they say that boxing is sometimes about timing 'It is not 100% clear, whether the timing of this fight? Is more beneficial for Joe Joyce or Derek Chisora'.
Me personally, when Joe Joyce was working with Team Hayemaker and David Haye 'At that time, I thought the fight vs Joe Joyce was stylistically a incredibly difficult fight for Derek Chisora. And I have always sensed that Chisora was weary of Joyce'.
Joyce and Chisora are both stylistically very similar fighters 'Who rely in the same attributes to win fights'. Once upon a time, for a short period during Joe Joyce's career? He was appearing to be invulnerable to physical attacks, with a supreme level of endurance. Joe Joyce's endurance statistically can rival Oleksandr Uysk's.
But since Joe Joyce's back to back loses to Zhilei Zhang 'Joyce has not really appeared to be in that level of form'.
Almost all version's of Derek Chisora, would of beaten Joe Joyce's last opponent 'So like I have just stated, the timing of this fight. It is not 100% clear who it benefits more'.
Joe Joyce is definitively the favourite to win 'But I sense Derek Chisora is not turning up just to entertain and survive, this is a attitude I am not fond of in a fighter. Derek Chisora from my observation is really turning up to this fight, with the primary intention of winning' etc.

One last hurrah before hands are thrown
I'm guessing 14th L, though.
