    They’re a pair of scumbags who were made for each other. I’ll watch though, with any hope, one of them gets brutally sparked out - I don’t mind who.

    I don't like either to be honest. Both have been convicted of physical abuse against women which is a complete no no in my book.

    Hope they ko each other.

    Wilder. I’d like to see one more right-hand bomb before he rides off into the sunset. Don’t expect it, but one can dream.

    Neither, I really don't care who wins, I don't think it's a good fight.................I think it will be filled with action but it's not a "good" fight.

    They both should be sitting down.

    In Australia, we don't really need an excuse to be rooting. We just enjoy the act for its own sake, then we race down the pub and tell our mates about it.

    Chisora.

    Wilder's ending his career better than he spent his prime - taking risky fights that he might well lose, and has lost... That makes him more likeable, for sure.

    But Chisora has spent basically his whole career that way, and has some losses to show for it.

    I've always believed Chisora stood a very good chance of beating Wilder, stylistically he's a real challenge for Deontay... With their respective declines, I think this probably favours Chisora more than ever, but we'll see.

    For me this would be Wilder's best win, given context for sure and arguably fullstop... But I'd prefer Del to get it done.

    Since I am America 1st I’m pulling for Wilder
    However I will still gleefully cheer if he gets KTfO
    This is after all why we watch.

    Been rolling with Chisora his entire career, highs and lows, not gonna change that now! Seriously hope he retires after this one though, he's already carried on far too long

    I honestly don't care. If I had a gun to my head I would probably want Chisora just because Wilder is annoying. I also don't want Wilder fighting Usyk as he should be fighting the top ranked contenders.

    Would you prefer Wilder v Usyk or Chisora v Usyk 2?
