    Unfortunately for boxing fans, casuals love Derek Chisora for some reason

    I think it's pretty unanimous that nobody want to see this fight.

    This fight is a wasted training camp for Fury simple as that .

    I'm actually a bit shocked this is still going ahead. Even Frank's friends at Talksport are calling him out on this.

    There were so many viable alternative opponents for a Fury "tune up" in the WBC top 15:
    Wallin (24-1-0)
    Bakole (18-1-0)
    Kossobutskiy (18-0-0) - now fighting in November
    Hunter (30-2-1) - who was training for Hughie Fury

    Heck even these Top Rank fighters:
    Kabayel (22-0-0)
    and
    Ajagba (16-1-0)
    who were both ranked top 15 before the WBC started shuffling the rankings to include:
    Chisora (33-12-0)

    He could probably have got sanctioned to fight their bridger weight champion too:
    Oscar Rivas (28-1-0)

    But no instead, for months Fury has chased a 39 year old opponent, with 12 losses, who he has already beaten twice; the second time so one sided Chisora retired in his corner.

    This fight gets worse the closer to reality it gets.

    Why did Fury announce his retirement after the Wilder fight?

    Hell no! Makes me want to see Usyk embarrass him even more

    I think they will pull the plug on this fight

    I can't see Warren & BT having the staying power to actually market this.

    Hopefully.

    The PPV will not sell, the UK fans are not stupid. There are many heavyweight looking for a fight right now - Hunter would be a good choice.

    I have the feeling that fight is to compare him with Usyk's performance against Chisora which wasn't impressive.
