    To me it looked like Chisora was overcome with nervous energy and just did it in the heat of the moment, his own eyes look shocked after the slap lands but by that point it's done so he can't really start apologising, in the interview after he still looked wired.

    Body language isn't saying this is the same ultra-confident Chisora that there has been all week in the build up, maybe he's realized he's in over his head, he's never boxed anywhere near this level before.

    I see Klitschko getting rid of him inside 6.

    When you look at his other antics over his career its hard to judge as anything other than him being a ***** rather than nervousness.

    Was he nervous against Carl Baker as well when he decided to snog him?

    No, he's just slightly eccentric

    hey OP, no he isn't nervous. If you have seen previous Chisora weigh ins you'd probably know this is the kind of **** he gets up to.

    yeah I've seen him before at weigh ins but his whole demeanour was slightly different today, it wasn't tongue in cheek like it used to be.

    at his last weigh in vs Helenius his demeanour was the same, there was also a bit of a scuffle.

    He's away to fight for the world title against arguably one of the most imposing Heavyweight champions of all time, in his adopted homeland.

    Is he ****ing nervous?

    My thinking was that the Del Boy slap was a similar situation to when Haye was goading the Klits, In the hope that it unnerves the Big man and makes him make mistakes.

    Fraudley tweeted saying it looked like built up nervous tension, especially the clip of him after, shows he's up for it
