    In the aftermath of Tyson Fury's emphatic win over Derek Chisora ,does anyone still believe Chisora was a credible opponent for Wlad?

    No.

    Wlad should instead wait until Perez, who has a similar style, is ranked & ready to fight him.

    It was a very entertaining fight, but Wlad cannot fight the loser.

    I had Fury winning 118-110, Wlad cannot justify fighting Chisora now.

    I would not have seen Chisora as a credible opponent even if he had won that fight. At the same time, I would not have been offended if Wlad had taken him as a keep busy fight, in view of his high level of competition recently.

    Now I am prety sure the fight is dead in the water.

    No, but Fury might be a few months from now. Chisora was a poor man's Brewster. Chisora can take a punch and hit hard, but his conditoing, heart, and skills were lacking.

    Chisora was overweight for the Fury fight and, lacks real power,as does Fury himself.

    I don't think Fury is much of a puncher at top level,and he is open to counters when he misses, 6 months to a year in a US gym might work wonders for him. I would broadly agree with your assessment though.

    Chisora is a poor man's Peter, not a poor man's Brewster.

    I was literally screaming at the tv for Fury to get his hands up, Chisora was throwing bombs, during the second round, i thought it was all over.

    Fury did show lots of ring intelligence.

    He needs to work on defence and footworkand handspeed, hell be ok

    I always thought Chisora was a very strange choice for Wlad, I don't think he would have lasted 5 rounds.

    Seems strange him coming in so heavy too, is his heart really in it?
