Comments Thread For: Glazkov Hopes To Face Dereck Chisora on September 21

Was it the girl in your pic?

Glazkov has a controversial win over Scott and Chisora has a controversial win over him so it's a good matchup.

Actually it was a controversial draw not a Glazkov win- but I agree this is a good matchup.


Glazkov is unproven still but he's ranked and in his last fight on the Stevens-roman undercard he looked in fantastic shape and noticeable trimmer then in the Scott fight.

Chisoras a guy who would fight any guy anywhere at any time, I think he would accept this fight.

Both Chisora and Glazzy are about on the same skill level so I think this fight comes down to a war of wills - who wants it more and who's in better shape.

Sounds like a great matchup to me. Would much rather see a young up-and-coming hw like Glazkov rather than a washed up and uninspiring Kev Johnson

How is a knockout controversial?

Chisora might not want to face Johnson. He's one loss from completely falling into the pit of obscurity, but his style is all wrong for Chisora.

Saying that, props to Chisora if he goes that direction. Ill be fine with Glazkov, though.

What style? Being 80 pounds overweight, not throwing punches and moves like Sam Peter?

Yeah, Del, glad you dodged that bullet.

Johnson's style is absolutely perfect for Chisora. He'll lay on the ropes and Chisora would just bombard him. Might get countered a few times but not enough to make the slightest bit of impression on the judging.

How is a knockout controversial?

When the hometown ref doesn't give you a full 10 seconds to get up controversy will ensue.

Especially if you can't in clear conscience argue he was unsafe to continue. Which the BBBoC maybe did, I'd have to read again

I doubt Chisora cares much to be honest, he'll be more interested in his fee. I think Johnson is probably the bigger name and the easier sell for FWP but then he might also ask for more money than the Ukrainian.

Dereck Chisora Q&A

First sporting memory?

Ricky Hatton versus Kostya Tszyu in 2005. I was ringside at the MEN Arena and the atmosphere was electric.

Biggest regret?

The fight with David Haye at West Ham. I wasn’t concentrating and if I had been, I would not have lost.

Sporting ambition?

That’s easy: to be WBC Heavyweight Champion of the world.

What are you rubbish at?

Football. I kept falling over and injuring my knees.

Toughest opponent?

That Argentinian guy, Alfredo Avila who I fought in April. That was a really tough fight.

Best Venue?

Helsinki, Finland. I fought Robert Helenius there and the fans booed me throughout the whole fight.

Best Moment?

Taking Vitali Klitschko the distance in Munich [in February 2012]. He had knocked out 40 of his 45 opponents before that. Someone even offered me money to sponsor the bottom of my boots.

Best piece of advice?

Stop acting like a lunatic. Frank Warren told me that.

Funniest teammate?

Frankie Gavin. Catch him at the right moment and he’ll really make you laugh.

Worst moment?

When my mum had a go at me. One day she’d had enough and she said ‘why can’t you just listen to me for once in your life?’

If you weren’t a sportsman, what would you be?

I’d like to be an entrepreneur. I’m always involved in a bit of business.

If an actor played you in a film about your life, who would you chose and why?

Ricky Martin. No, I’m joking. Martin Lawrence. I really like him.
