http://m.boxingnewsonline.net/latest/news/dereck-chisora-s-open-letter-to-deontay-wilder Dear Deontay, I’m asking you man-to-man and hope that you have the honour and courage to accept my challenge and fight me. I’m in this business to prove that I’m the best and to become a world champion which I’m sure you are too, so take me up on my challenge and let’s do this and get it on early next year. I’ll be honest, I don’t rate you. You’ve put together a record of 30 knockouts from 30 fights, but I believe that you are grossly over-hyped for knocking over nobodies - which is understandable for the first two years as a pro when you’re learning - but after 30 fights you’re still knocking over nobodies. As a guide I fought Vitali Klitschko for the world title in only my 18th fight. When are you going to step up and fight a real contender? There’s only one way to prove me wrong and shut me up and that is to get in the ring with me. The fans want to see if you can really fight and back up your words by facing someone who will give you a real fight, where you can prove that you America’s saviour in the heavyweight division, and that someone is me. You can punch, there’s no question about that, I can bang as well. It would be an explosive and exciting fight between us, but lets see who’s got the bigger heart for the fight when the heat is on. If you beat me fair and square I’ll have no problem saying that you were the better man, but lets do it and prove who really is the better man. Richard Schaefer from your promoter’s Golden Boy Promotions has a good relationship with my promoter Frank ****** so there’s no problem getting it made. Deontay, if you are a proud fighting man then you will take up this challenge and give the fans and media what they want to see. Regards, Dereck Chisora Author: BN Staff
good fight if Chisora can make him work hard early and remain vertical its anyone's fight. but I think wilder might just be too explosive and hit to hard...
Look for Deontay to fight Maskaev or Lamon Brewster. After all, they're former world champions. atsch
Update: Deontay Wilder ‏@BronzeBomber @dellboychisora and your titles will be put on the line just so you know k thanks
His chin is still there, he has taken some hard shots in his last two fights and stayed up. However, it's his lack of concentration and slack approach which have led to taking these shots that is more worrying.
Chisora takes this one for me. Wilder has the power certainly but lacks the class, Haye has shown he can take shots after getting in the ring with Vitali and Haye he will walk Wilder down and take him out inside 4.
