Comments Thread For: Haye: Usyk-Chisora Likely To Be Rescheduled For Some Point In October

[LoadedWraps]

Some of us recognise that not every good fight is worth money on top of already subscribing to a sports channel. Alot of us recognise that much better fights than this have occurred non PPV throughout boxing history right til now without needing a £25 fee. After watching Chisora getting outboxed by people like Kabayel, I'm pretty sure he's got no chance here, but by all means if you have the disposable income knock yourself out.

I do have the disposable income and I will. I'm doing very well right now, rebounding after a tough stretch, and am in a good place.

I don't disagree from principle stand point, most PPV and subscriptions are over priced for the product offered. That will always be trumped by "im a hardcore boxing purist" and will pretty much pay whatever a PPV is, even I feel its expensive. I get that people like me are arguably part of the problem, but I'll never rob myself of live boxing just to make some statement or boycott.

Like I said before, who Chisora has lost to is irrelevant to my interest in this fight. This is entirely about seeing how Usyk looks against what I consider a solid gatekeeper, but even if there were two guys with 5-20 records, if they can ****, and are exciting, I'm buying. That's what some people fail to understand. Results and what's at stake isn't all that matters to fight fans, some of us just love fighting, and fights, period.

Kabyle did nothing but run and get hit by the cleaner shots which is why one judge scored it a draw but besides that are you stating Kabayel is better then Whyte and some other guys he fought because Kabayel is B level at best and would lose 4 out of 5 to Chisora who was in much better shape and weight against Whyte ,unless he comes in looking soft and above 255 you then can complain but fighting Usyk is another story ,no one who wants another title fight isn’t going to not put in the effort,I expect a lean mean Chisora bc he’s going to have to be .

Chisora weighed more for Price at 260 because he’s not a moving fighter and knew extra size would lead to a stoppage ,he can’t do that here .

Derek can't cope with movers, thats what I'm saying. He may well come in too heavy, he's done that in other fights you'd have thought were pretty important. He's stamina ****** against Whyte in the first fight, against Pulev, and against Kabayel. I'd never try to second guess what Derek is thinking. All I know is I don't think it's a PPV fight, and Eddie is taking the piss out of hes audience, but its your money, enjoy.

I love boxing too, i know what your saying. I don't think every fight between two recognizable names needs to be PPV on top of a subscription but that's just my opinion, same as my opinion thay the styles won't make for a good fight. I like Derek, he's got alot of heart, but even in fights we thought he couldn't afford to lose, he came in overweight and unconditioned at times. Kabayel, Pulev and even Whyte one, despite it being good action, he was winded constantly and had to go to the ropes. He's temperamental and may just not turn up. Since he fought Haye he's shown he doesnt deal with movers well, and Usyk will move and move. I think it's going to be a snorer, but hopefully not.

If Del Boy can't impose his size/strength on Usyk and allows Usyk to get into his rhythm I can see a corner stoppage. If Usyk is outboxing him in the later rounds with Del being gassed and it is clear Chisora can't win I expect his corner to do the right thing. In any case a win for Del is huuuuuuuge for him and he knows it, he can slide into a fight with anyone he so chooses. Looking forward to it.

I'll pay for it.

A great fight to me on paper.

Hard to find a better gatekeeper gauge for Usyk, we know who Chisora is and he is willing to **** and comes to fight.

A good fight to me is a good fight and worth my money, doesn't matter what the fighters records are, what the stakes are, or where they are in their careers. Some of us recognize a good matchup and will eat it up, PPV or not.

I agree. I enjoy the journey more than the outcome at times. This is one of those situations where I would enjoy the fight simply because I am a fan of boxing and not just of a fan of a champ or whatever the current flavor of the month is.
