    It's not notable unless Chisora goes on to do something later on, but there aren't many other options available. I mean, look at the list of guys who have blatantly ducked him in the last year and a half:

    - David Haye
    - Nicolai Valuev (after the Chagaev and Haye fights fell apart, Valuev got first dibs and passed)
    - Alexander Povetkin
    - Denis Boytsov, refusing to participate in even the eliminator

    It's almost unprecedented to see so many top guys refuse a massive payday to fight the best in the world, but a lot of folks seem to think they have more to lose by losing badly to Wlad than they have to gain by fighting him.

    About the best things I can say about Chisora are that he's undefeated and he's not James Toney.

    Well, it depends on what happens to Chisora after this.

    If he goes nowhere, it would not be remembered at all.

    If he becomes something, this fight would morph into something more than we initially thought.

    Please take your black superiority attitude and **** off moron.

    What's wrong in taking a fight while waiting for Haye to grow some balls?

    Yes, thing is Chisora has nothing to lose. Haye knows it is likely he loses to Wlad and a loss would mean he won't make as much money anymore in the near future.

    We all know that Chisora will at least give it a go - we know hes not doing it for the money, seeing as the sisters will be barely giving him a bean.

    Why is Chisora getting 'props' for stepping up? It's an unwarranted shot at the title and the cash that goes with it. I would ****ing step up given the oportunity.
