Frying pan into the fire, as I think Chisora loses to Pulev as surely as he would to Joshua, but he is giving himself a marginally better chance here - and for a title which does on paper outrank any of Joshua's. Smart move.
If Chisora won this he'd be in line for a final big payday with a big local fight: Whyte, Haye rematch or AJ for EBU belt.
Seems like a big risk for Chisora since it jeopardizes the potential payday with Joshua. Chisora has never gotten the W at this level. So I'll believe it when I see it. Exciting fight if it happens.
I'd rather see Pulev vs Joshua or Pulev vs Ortiz. I don't need to see Chisora fight anyone ever again.
I like this fight. I always liked the jab of Pulev and thought the way that Klitschko handled it was superb. Del Boy is always a tv friendly fighter and he's got the personality and flair to spark attention and maybe pre fight brawl or two. Good match indeed.
