    Zhang is accurate and hits hard but Dereks fair well tour has actually been well managed.
    That said I think he probably get hit to often to hard by Zhang and they both have crap gas tanks.
    Derek like to sit and take a breath on the ropes these days and if Zhang is throwing then doing that is a bad idea.

    I’m thinking this all depends on Zhang, not Chisora. If he’s got anything left in the tank, I see a painful night ahead for Del Boy. Kabayel showed Zhang isn’t the same force he was when he beat Joyce, but if he’s still got something about him, Derek’s in trouble.

    If Zhang’s firing, Chisora takes a beating and either gets stopped or calls it himself after too much punishment.

    Either way, it should be his last fight.

    A remotely on form Zhang hurts Chisora, but I think that's what Del needs to finally retire tbh.

    I’m hearing Zhang has signed but Chisora hasn’t yet. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if he doesn’t fancy it and why would he.
    Also worryingly heard that Itauma and Chisora might not be on the same show any more. Maybe Frank is trying to squeeze out an extra PPV by putting them on separate shows.

    Would like to see Zhang knock this fooker clean out.

    Should he survive 3 rounds, this will be a slugfest with both men holding each other up.

    Chisora will get the decision should it go the distance.

    "Chisora will get the decision should it go the distance."

    Far from clear imo.

    Chisora hasn't had the favour of the judges in his last three, even though he's won them. Judges gave him the win by 3, 2 and 6 rather than the 4, 4 and 10 Boxrec fans thought he won by. If this is Chisora's last as he claims then there's no value in him going forward, whereas Zhang, who I believe is still with Warren, can go on as a contender if he wins. Zhang lost decisions to Hrgovic and Parker but it was very narrow and both are significantly better pointfighters than an on the cusp of age 42 Chisora.

    Chisora tires and gets dropped a couple of times and the ref waves it off.

    I've read that Zhang has signed his part of the deal and he's just waiting on Chisora.

    I'm wondering if Chisora is being advised against fighting him or if he's reluctant.

    Chisora really shouldn’t be taking on a big puncher at this point, he’s gonna get badly messed up if he keeps it up.

    This will be like the two hippos procreating on Reginald Perrin 50 years ago. Google it if you're too young.

    Surely Zhang chins him?

    All about cardio when facing Zhang. Anyone with enough movement will bank enough rounds against him as he’s fcked if he has to put more than 10 seconds of activity together.
