    Zhang should poleaxe Chisora but if Chisora can somehow weather the storm in the first 6 rounds who knows because Zhang has no gas tank and Chisora is not the easiest fighter to stop.

    Zhang inside 5 rounds.

    Chisora likely loses his pen.

    Both are the same age, but I still think Chisora has suffered significantly more damage during his career because he has more fights and has had tougher fights against tougher opponents, Zhang should win...

    Zhang takes Chisora's head off inside 3 rounds. Chisora is too shopworn and plodding to survive.

    Zhang has horrible stamina but he's still the most dangerous heavyweight in the world for about 4 rounds.

    His stamina has got even worse lately. I think his danger is now down to about 2 rounds.

    That Big Sexy Chinese Man is half a year older than Chisora but Chisora been in more wars and more pro miles on his clock, Big Bang lot more miles on his clock in the amateurs

    They have at least 3 common opponents

    Big Bang

    WTKO6 and KO3 Big Joe Joyce
    LMD12 J-Park
    LKO6 Kabayel

    Chisora

    WUD10 Big Joe Joyce
    LSD12 and UD12 J-Park
    LMD12 Kabayel

    Who wins?

    Big Sexy Chinese man

    or

    Big Sexy Derek?

    Chisora seems to be afraid of Zhang knocking him out.

    Zhang has agreed to everything, but he's been waiting three weeks for Chisora to sign the contract.

    DAZN wants the fight, they know it would sell.

    Chisora keeps on losing his pen.

    He lost it when it came to signing to face Itauma and now he has lost it again when the Zhang fight has been offered to him.

    Zhang is about half a year older than Chisora, who is on the cusp of 42.

    Yes, I actually knew that but something happened in between me checking the dates out and the writing part and I wrote a year and a half instead of half a year. A combination of trying to concentrate on more than one thing whilst being half asleep

    Zhang’s advisor Terry Lane says they were contacted by Queensberry over 3 weeks ago for Zhang to fight Chisora and accepted the offer but are still waiting for Chisora’s signature.

    If we can believe that, Chisora-Zhang is all but a done deal.
