    Same Chisora who fought Usyk and AJ post Usyk defeat last week.

    Thoughts?

    This should actually be Joshua's next fight. For the record Chisora could easily win.

    Same result as the Pulev fight, only Chisora doesn't last as long.

    KO in 6.

    This is getting ridiculous now. The over reactions to last weeks fight is seriously stupid.

    Chisora wont have the leniency he has enjoyed for his previous 4 fights or so from the referee's and without that I see AJ beating him. If the referee's allow him to wrestle and low blow AJ I think Chisora wins.

    Not at all.

    Chisora going forward like he did against Usyk would cause AJ massive issues. A wild swing from Chisora could KO AJ.

    Chisora could win, but almost certainly wouldn't. Watch the Pulev fight, it would be the same outcome, but Chisora's chin isn't as granite as Pulev's, he wouldn't last as long.

    Chisora would go after Joshua, but eventually get caught and Joshua will finish him.

    6 rounds.

    Since when has Pulev had a granite chin? Hughie Fury managed to hurt him. He recovers extremely well and keeps upright but it isn't too difficult to slip something through and have him in trouble.

    Chisora by contrast has probably a top 5 HW chin at the moment, maybe higher. Only problem with Chisora is that he's happy to take shots a lot of the time, not hard to believe he has been KOed by some massive punches when he takes so many.

    Apparently Usyk had a bad case of COVID just before the Chisora fight.

    I think Chisora's style adaptations for Usyk would be far less effective against Joshua.

    I,ve always thought chisora could cause joshua problems or the new version of chisora we,ve seen the last few years anyway. Got the style for it. Expect joshua would have enough to get him out of there...but its a potential bannana skin...one i wouldnt be putting money on joshua to win it.

    Chisora wobbled parker with his first punch. Hes landed on everyone hes fought the last few years...and hes fought a good level recently. Usyk, whyte, parker. Talking about whyte being top 5...yet chisora wasnt actually all that far off of having two wins against him. He pressures you. I reckon hes pretty heavy handed and punches from odd angles that people cant seem to get out the way of. He sets a good pace as well.

    Not a great match up for a lets be honest guy with stamina, chin and confidence issues.

    that would be a good fight for Joshua to take. Chisora would lose by being ktfo.

    Chisora too much of a risk for Joshua hence the reason that they have never fought .

    Chisora is most similar stylistically and anthropometrically to Mihai Nistor and Andy Ruiz but he punches harder than both. It would be a very dangerous fight for AJ with his confidence at rock bottom.
