    What do you think - is this a good fight for the WBC heavyweight titleholder, or should he have fought someone he hasn't already beaten twice?

    I don't mind him taking a softer fight in prep for Usyk next year, but no-one wants to see this mismatch again.

    I dont mind, I only hope it will be more competitive than with Whyte. Plus he promised to fight Chisora before retiring, so he is at least holding his word, but the outcome of the fight is pretty clear.

    I would have preferred Kabayel among the heavyweights available. That said, I still prefer Chisora III to nothing.

    It's absolute garbage. Chisora has done nothing to earn a shot at a heavyweight title. The WBC should be ashamed of themselves for sanctioning this as a title fight.

    As long as he fights Usyk next year I don't care. Will probably watch it

    I don’t like Chisora as his choice of opponent, but clearly Fury just wants to get back in the ring to prevent ring rust ahead of his fight with Usyk next year.

    I would prefer a better opponent, preferably a southpaw to prepare Fury for Usyk, but at the same time, there are worse opponents than Chisora who a top 15-20 HW and is coming off a win against one of AJ’s best wins.

    Fury fighting twice in a year is preferable to Usyk fighting only once this year who turned down a fight in December.

    As a Chisora fan I'm happy Chisora will get one last shot on the big stage but lets be honest this fight is totally pointless, there's zero anticipation for this fight and the fight will lack any drama as it's a foregone conclusion barring some freak injury to Fury.

    Nope.

    I've seen through Fury's charade and gimmick much quicker than most people.

    He's a good boxer but he has become very WWE lately and his act is utterly transparent now.

    I don't mind him taking a stay busy fight if he truly is fighting Usyk next. But Chisora of all people? He gave him a hiding 8 years ago ffs. This for me is the straw that broke the camels back. If he ever does find his nuts and fights Usyk....I'll be rooting for the Ukranian all the way.

    I'm sure it's a personal thing for Tyson this.
    I feel as thought Tyson feels he owes Dell a big payday as I'm sure he feels both Chisora fights put him on the map.
    The first 1 was his first big win and for the British.
    The second was the beatdown that showed Furys ultimate class and made Chisora shot to bits, and sent him into a massive 2015.
    I feel even though they have always talked abit of **** about each other I feel its always been respect for each other and I think Fury wants to give Chisora a nice payday.
    Fury will bust Derek up this time and stop and retire him, Fury seems to have developed big power under Sugar Hill and Chisora just walks forward with no head movement or footwork in sight. Fury will be landing with about 80% of his punches.
    And personally I think the fight is a joke same as if Fury fought Charr.
    Fury should be fighting Joyce or Usyk next after AJ clearly ducked him not Chisora or Charr who are both shot to bits.

    Its a terrible fight but is anyone really that surprised? Ive said it months ago that it was going to be Chisora all along, and i was proven to be right. There was no way Fury was going to take a dangerous risk before he fights Usyk.
