    Should Chisora take the fight with Wlad?


    Yes, or do you think it too soon...

    Too soon I think. He looked pretty good the other night-I like the head movement, getting up on his toes, the workrate, he showed a chin things which you just don't seem to see in one package anymore. That said he's still a 14 fight novice, inexperienced and he's too heavy. He's not ready for that level yet even giving the benefit of the doubt and assuming he ever will be. Could do more harm to his career than good although I can see the argument for the upset particularly if he performed better than expected (and let's face it, no disrespect but expectations wouldn't be high from many people).

    He should take it, but I cant see him winning and in all honesty I think Dell Boy would just be happy with the payday.

    I might be doing him a disservice there but hey ho.

    If it's a genuine offer, he absolutely should take it.

    1. There's no guarantee that the opportunity will come around again.

    2. Losing to Wlad is nothing to be ashamed off.

    3. By even taking the fight he'll have bragging rights over David Haye.

    It's a win win situation. If he wins, he's the legitimate #1 HW and linear champ, and will no doubt have a lucrative rematch clause so will have a nice few quid.

    If he loses he's still British champion, he'll have great experience, will have a few quid and can say that he had the stones (unlike Haye) to face the HW champion in his prime.

    Of course he should, he'll get stopped but then Wlad will stop him at any part of his career anyway.

    Might aswell collect the cash now, and all he's got to do is give a better account of himself than some of the others Wlad has beat and his reputation will go up plenty even in defeat.

    Exactly.

    You don't see football teams ducking out of a payday against a top team incase they lose.

    Leeds beat Man Utd remember :hey

    I think ready or not if the offer is there and assuming its a fairly big payday heshould take it. As mentioned before there are no guarantees this offer would come around again.

    Who is to say he will ever reach world level seems like a no brainer if it has been offered.

    I voted no, but after some consideration, I think he should bite Wlad's hand off. To get this kind of opportunity at this stage in his career is incredible and can only be a win-win situation.

    I'll be rooting Del Boy all the way!

    I'd like Warren to offer Vitlay a good purse to come over and fight Chisora..... given that counter offers seem to be the order of the day.

    As much as I'd like Chisora to accept the Wlad offer subject to it being genuine, you'd have to make Wlad a huge favourite in that one.

    Old man Klitschko is by far the easier fight for him if they feel Wlad is too dangerous.
