Comments Thread For: Photo: Johnson, Abell Promise To Beat Down Chisora, Fury

Seriously tough fight for Big Derek. The whole of King Pins style is wrong for Del Boy. From the movement, to the philly shell defense and then the surprisingly hard counter right hands Chis' usual wander towards them and throw looping hooks to the body tactics ain't gonna work here. Can't say I'm not a little bit worried for the guy.

Good analysis, I agree. If I had to pick a most likely result, I'd say it will be a controversial decision win by Chisora. Gonna be tough for Johnson to pick up the decision in London. I could see a ko by Johnson over Chisora per Leapai, with Chisora's decreased punch resistance coming into play after Johnson gives up a few early rounds, and I could see Johnson doing what most people seem to expect, going into a shell losing every round to a wide UD. But Chisora is a good matchup for him, and he' better than people give him credit for, so I expect a close (although not necessarily good) fight.

If Abell's chin wasn't so damn bad, I'd actually pick him to beat Fury... I just can't bet on that chin holding up

How exactly is Johnson going to beat Chisora??? Chisora only needs to stay busy and let his hands go and he'll win every round being active. Johnson will be extremely defensive minded and won't let his hands go and Chisora will take the fight to Johnson push him back and land punch after punch.

This is going to be a very one-sided fight where Johnson doesn't even try to fight. Chisora on points and wins every round or late TKO.

Absolutely! Johnson is TRASH! He will not beat Chisora! Chisora is no Leapei!

And if Abell could borrow Johnson's skill and durability and Johnson could borrow Abell's balls and power they could both win fo shizzle!
