    Got tickets for this for the Chisora/Parker fight. Really hope it's a decent opponent.

    Povetkin would be interesting wouldn't mind that. Price would be entertaining, could see price doing well in the early rounds but then getting caught by an overhand right and getting ko'ed in round 6-10.

    Taylor v Prograis is still the main thing for me but Chisora v Parker would have been decent and a very good measurement of where both fighters are at ie. if Del has really found a second wind and if Parker is actually really all that.

    Got tickets 2! Can see it being some no hoper although Hearn should in theory have a decent budget to get in someone good, money talks at the end of the day.....

    Chisora is ranked highly with the wbc, if they carry on down that route then it would need to be one of these...

    Martin
    Breazeale
    Hunter
    Joyce
    Rivas

    He's doing a frank Warren.

    I'd be astonished if it was anyone semi decent at this notice unless Eddie is going to chuck money at them which is unlikely.

    Hes orivided good late repalcements before such as Takam and Ruiz.

    I'd expect Parker was on good money for this fight.

    tbh pricey would be entertaining, and I doubt anyone decent (who chisora would agree to) would step in on such short notice.

    price 2.3 will give value for money in the few weeks of build up as well, going full roadman mode on chisora

    Ironic that this should happen considering Chisora's rant at the press conference when he said that he and not Taylor - Prograis should headline the PPV bill. Talk about delusional!

    He was talking the truth. Apart from a few, most people will be going to see Chisora and that's a fact.

    Price has apparently ruled himself out of this fight.
