    Do you think Chisora vs Wlad will actually happen?

    I hope I'm wrong, I really do, but I just get the feeling that at the end of the day this fight might not actually take place.



    Reading in the press today:

    “Now I’m British champion and there’s talk of facing Klitschko.” Chisora

    That hardly sounds like a done deal.

    Hopefully not, Chizzy would be embarrassed.

    I'd admire him for taking fight, but i'd fear what may happen to his career after Wlad lay on a clinical beating on him.

    I hope it doesn't happen, on Ringside he seemed unsure on the fight taking place and how to beat Wlad. I'd say that they opt elsewhere...who that may be i do not know but it be another win on the record of Wlad.

    A loss to Vlad will not harm his career and his name will get bigger. He will get another shot up the road.

    The fight is definately on - just a minor issue which is holding up the announcement and its nothing to do with the fight itself - its on guys

    :happy

    No matter what happens I will be giving Chisora big respect for taking the fight.

    I hope it's on, it's a great opportunity for him and a defeat *shouldn't* be the end of the world for Chisora. However, listening to him on Ringside it certainly didn't sound likely the fight would happen.

    Yes. Chisora seems to want it, Wlad is running out of opponents and it has the added incentive for Wlad of giving him a UK platform from which to have a pop at Haye from.

    He shouldve been in prizefighter the other night. He would have walked through that. It would raise his profile and earn him 32k.

    You can never tell with Frank.

    Realistically, Chisora should go for it and I don't see any reason why he can't resume where he left off if he loses. If he loses to Wlad put him back in there with Peter or Arreola.

    I'm pretty sure he wouldn't have been allowed to fight in Prizefighter at the weekend considering he won the 1st version of it.

    EDIT: Ooops! He's never been in it has he??

    I think it's the last thing Warren wants, and I'm not even sure Chisora really fancies it. However, desperate times and all that...

    Neither are going to make much money elsewhere right now.

    No I don't think it will happen... it's a bad fight for Chisora. Yeh, the exposure is great and it's commendable him contemplating this sort of fight at this stage in his career but he is made for Wlad and would suffer a bad KO.

    Chisora is a confident/arrogant fighter and lives to that persona... with a bad KO he'd be a shadow of himself. Frank knows this and will be using the exposure of a Wlad fight to engineer a more winnable and equally beneficial fight with Haye (or A-Force if he lands the A BOMB lol)

    I smell a back injury once the promotional work is done and Chisora got a name in britain because of Wlad wants to fight him
