    Pressure is on for Usyk. If he struggles never mind loses then people will say he has no chance against Joshua or Fury. He really does need to put on a shutout performance to please his critics. I expect a convincing points win for Usyk, I’ll be amazed if he manages to stop Dereck.

    Usyk will stop him easy. He is tier above Whyte, who stopped Chisora.
    Zero chance of anything else happen.
    Hearn really f****8 his fighters.
    Both Joshua and Usyk should have fight in an empty seats. He pretty much waste a year for both of his fighters.
    But he was too greedy waiting and waiting for people to be allowed at the fight.
    It was bad, bad mistake.
    From the end of 2018, to pretty much the end of 2020, Joshua has only 2 matches, Ruiz Jr. twice and eventually Pulev will be his 3rd at December 2020.

    This puny Usyk will be trapped in the corner and stopped on the ropes by Chisora. He will share the same fate as Spilka!

    Usyk isn't going to sit on the ropes square with a high guard even if he gets tagged.

    He will always be positionally defensive working off the jab

    Usyk's job is to make the ring feel like the size of a football pitch and Dereck's job is to make it feel like a phonebooth.

    Should even out.

    Chisora was stopped by a Cruiser already.

    Usyk would actually be better off fighting Hughie Fury as the style is more similar to Tyson.

    Haye?

    Don't talk nonsense

    The fight was contested at HW ,where Haye had been fighting for a number of years prior

    Former Cruiser ,then you might have a point

    Also do you think Uysk has the same punch power as Haye?

    Its definitely underrated but Haye was a great power puncher which helped his transition to HW a great deal

    Usyk should handle him just fine.

    Hardly worth making the words of a promoter a thread title.

    "Yesterday I was lying..." etc

    An 'each way' bet on a fight happening or not? Eddie really is a master BS artist saying whatever comes in to his head as that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

    Its always an open fight at HW, but Id give Chisora no more than 25% chance in this one.

    Hard to pick against such a talent as Usyk. He might even stop Chisora on accumulation of punches.

    People forget Usyk already beat Joyce and Majidov, strong, skilled heavies

    Really? :D
    But Usyk stopped Huck, which Povetkin at his younger year wasn`t even close. Yeah that wasnt the best version of Huck for sure, but that tells you something about Usyk.
    And ancient Povetkin KOed Whyte.

    Chisora have zero chance going into decision against Usyk. Usyk may not have 1 KO punch power, but he plays on ridiculous high tempo, that his opponents get tired very quickly and eat a lot of punishment.
    Chisora is late in his career and his chin is more than sure not what its used to be, so i expect him to get stopped by Usyk.
    And Whyte power is nothing really special.
