    Didn’t you guys learn from last weekends fight ?

      Last weekend's fight somehow makes Chisora as well schooled as an Olympic gold medalist?

        Eh, no love for this fight. Usyk should be fighting a slightly better guy. Del is maybe one step up from Chazz. Maybe Usyk isn't as confident as I suspect or the Matchroom roster &/or budget = Del Boy this time idk.

        Hopefully next time Usyk steps up a lil more.
        I don't agree with this. Chisora will come in fit and very strong. It's going to be a big test of how Usyk can deal with bigger guys.

          While I also want to see him with better guys, I like this fight for Usyk. A win over him might not "mean much" resume wise but Chisora can **** and the way I see it, if Usyk can handle his power, he can handle anyone's in the division. For me the only thing I've been asking for prior to a title fight is, just throw him in there with someone who can test that chin at the HW level. I think Chisora is a great candidate for that.

            Chisora might pull out the doghouse rules on Usyk!

            Better hope Toney Weekes isn’t the ref or Usyk is in big trouble!

              Boxing is about landing the punch ,not if you have won any gold medals . I think it’s not hard to figure out I’m talking about age and having miles on you when the poster I was responding to brought age up .

              According to many on here Chisora was robbed of the Whyte fight so how can all of a sudden he has no chance against a guy who isn’t a puncher like Povetkin ?

                Hopefully DelBoy derails the Usyk train just like Povetkin did to Whyte, both mandatories out of the way for Joshua and Fury, so all they have to worry about is Pukev and Wilder before the undisputed fight!

                  Povetkin isn't a puncher? Ummm yes he has been known a puncher for quite some time.

                    He talks just to talk I think. Povetkin was considered dangerous for a long time.

                      But hey, it's your money! Go ahead and bet on Chisora if you please.
                      There's a first time for everything!

                      He's never been up against a true in form heavyweight either...

                      Chisora ain't no pillow fisted Tony Bellew!!!
