lol ustinov cant beat wlad , no chance............chisora is not the same fighter, ustinov starts favourite.

[knockoutkid]

ustinovs punches are too slow. Someone with technique can beat him much like pulev did. I thought fury would beat him comfortably.

Chisora is almost shot and Ustinov is ****...should be a great fight

Both need a win to resurrect their flagging careers, it is a poor fight but it is a necessary step for both, if Chisora can get a win he puts himself in the frame for something like a Joshua or Price fight, I'm not sure what purpose that serves but he gets paid and this is the money game.

A nice sequence of events would be Chisora winning going on to fight Price and the winner facing Joshua, I feel their is credit in defeating those guys for Joshua. Both have trash chins, but both have shown an ability to test opponents with their punches, Chisora with his looping over hands and Price with that raw power but nothing else much going for him.

Can Ustinov win this fight ? Sadly yes, that is testament to where Chisora is at with his career, facing Ustinov is in a sense fast tracking him back into domestic/euro level fights, whom he can cash out agaisnt ala ***ton, Skelton,Rogan, Sprott etc... Chisora is next in line to join the head of that queue of upcoming British fighters first acid tests.

Chisora has had a tough career, it'll be interesting to see what he has left after all the one sided beatings he has taken, every time he has stepped up and lost the previous damage seems to have taken a bigger effect than the last, we're about to witness if he still has the desire and ability to push himself into these sought after domestic scraps the Brits appear to lap up like thirsty little kittens on their mummies teets.

Chisora needs a win badly. I don't think he'll get it because I think the Haye money has taken his hunger.

Fury was a bad stylisti match up for Chisora, people forget that before that he was on a 5 fight win streak. He's definitely not at his best right now but this is a good fight to get back on track.

this a very good fight between 2 evenly matched guys. both fringe contenders who need a big win. If this fight happens I want chisora back to 245-250. Fighting in the 230s didn't make him faster & he did not take shots as well as he did when he was heavier. Both are slow as turtles but Ustinov is the right kind of fight for Chisora. Ustinov is there to be hit. I say Chisora will win this fight if he has anything left. Body work & that looping right could give Ustinov some trouble. Ustinov is just big & that can help him when he leans on his opponents but Chisora is strong as an ox. This is a very good matchup & I would be excited to see it.

Does a win for either put them back on the map ? I see Price is being talked up as a potential Joshua opponent and possibly Chisora too, I really feel those fights are mismatches but of course could be financially rewarding should Price bring the European belt to the table or Chisora on the back of a win over the guy Fury ducked due to his size.

Chisora has a "trash chin"? wtf, no he doesn't.
