I have a sneaky feeling Chisora will stop Whyte!

Late stoppage for del boy written all over it

 

Chisora is more than capable of knocking Whyte out. Neither fighter is elusive and are both willing to get involved in a gun fight inside the pocket. Imo Whyte is more likely to gas first as he works harder with his punch output and physicality which could make him very vulnerable to the big shot. I feel that Chisora will be more economical with his shots in the second fight. He threw far too many shots in the first fight and had nothing left when he did rock Whyte.

 

It will really upset the Eddie Hearn apples and pears cart. So hope it happens. Plus i like Chizza - he's likeable in a kind of unpredictable nutter sort of way.

Agree with the views above that Haye will have him in tip top shape so i can really see him taking Whyte out in a late stoppage.

 

I'd love to see a Chisora win, but I think his tactics of late, retreating to the ropes and playing a sort of punchbag counter-punch game, will see him beaten by Whyte. Let's look at the win that has given Chisora some momentum. Takam's record looks good, but all his wins by KO are against cream puffs, not even journeymen; against anyone with a pulse - Thompson, Perez for example even Gregory Tony - he has to make do with a decision. His record has been engineered to look good.

Chisora's win over Takam was good, there's no argument there and it was a fantastic fight. However, on reflection, it's not all it's cracked up to be. The reality of the fight was that Chisora spent 5 or 6 of the 8 rounds taking a beating. He was able to endure that because it was Takam. Against a rejuvenated and confident Whyte, I don't see that he will endure - backing up on the ropes and trying to be a counter-puncher is going to get him smashed. The situation is probably even worse with Haye as his manager, encouraging the patient game, one for which Chisora is ill-suited. His punch accuracy is, let's face it, poor - cast your mind back to his habit of throwing hopeful hayemakers over and over against the likes of Scott, Pulev and Fury.

I don't see Dereck going down, I think he simply has too much will to succumb to that. However, I do see the referee stepping in if he is taking unanswered blows on the ropes, especially on a Matchroom card.
