i know they say anything can happen in heavyweight boxing, but as much as i try, i can't come up with one good point or advantage chisora has, imo this is a mismatch, and looking at the mentality of chisora, he,s not the type to take a beating, ie, will show out when having it tough, i am inclined to go for a dq loss, headbutt, low blows,i don't think he will bite as he knows he's pulled that one before, but i will be very suprised if he takes his medicene in this bout, im not questioning his courage but i feel chisora is to mentaly unstable to handle things when there not going his way, If he doesen't get ko'd early, or stopped prematurely, i beleive he will look for a way out, through frustration, or he will run round the ring perimiter in an extremely negative fashion, . he will definatly not come out guns blazing, this is not chisoras fault he is just well and truly overmatched.:think:think
I'll give him 30 percent for showing bollocks , stepping up and he's coming off 2 decent wins at domestic level winning the British and Commonwealth tiltles so deserves some respect .Against him tho he's going into the lions den with not alot of experience .If he comes out with all guns blazing and shows heart .Don't know about his skill will he be eating jabs all night or will he manage to find a way inside ( doubt it ).His best chance is a lucky punch I think .Also is he going to look like another fat out of shape heavyweight or will he have the speed to get inside. I think Haye would defintley have alot better chance .
I know looking at klitchko from the safe side of the ropes and picking faults is much easier than implementing them, i just don't think he knows the difficulty of his task, yes haye is more experienced and hits harder, but still would be the outsider to win.:good
Very small, his only chance is a lucky punch but even then i'm not convinced his power would be enough to finish Wlad off. I'm sure he will give a go unlike somone else though. He is way out of his depth, he knows it, Frank knows it and Wlad knows it. I'd go for Wlad by stoppage in round 3/4
Interesting. I wondered how everyone rates Buster Douglas' chance against Tyson. I'm Not saying Del Boy will win (I think he gets KO'ed in 4 myself) but you just never no. He has nothing to lose in this 1, and wlad may just view it as a walkover and take him a little light. Wlad KO 4. Would a chisora win be the biggest upset in boxing history, not by a longshot!
Styles makes fights. Unfortunately Del doesn't have that great a style anyway. It's not even like he's been completely destroying British level competition. Just a year or two ago he wasn't standing out much against the likes of Paul Butlin and Danni Peret. Wladimir Klitschko will have had tougher sparring sessions in the build up to this fight than Derek will provide on the night. Chisora's best and only real chance is to go completely mental and charge at Wlad for every minute of every round. He needs to be in his face constantly, winging hooks and looping shots at every opportunity, even if he's just hitting Klitschko's gloves. Wladimir doesn't have great head movement but he'll use his sense of distance well and lean back like normal. The second Derek Chisora tries to box with Wlad he'll get punished and taken apart. Klitschko to win in 6 or 7 rounds at most. Chisora has almost no chance. Sorry Del Boy.
It was interesting to hear that Steward is more concerned about Del Boy than most of the previous opponents for Wlad. It's his age, unbeaten record and cool, positive determination combined with an inclination to 'fight' as opposed to box that means they are not overlooking him, but so long as Waldo concentrates he dominates and gets the tko around the 8th round for me. Looking at the bare facts it's hard to give Chisora more than a 10% chance and that's only because it can and has been done before. He just doesn't have sufficient lateral movement and power to do the job
steward will talk chisora up to keep his man motivated, a trainer knows never to tell his boxer its a pushover or he'd be in mcdonalds instead of the gym.:think:good
It does depend on his tactics. I would rate it at 1 in 20 fights that he would beat Chisora, so 5%. Chisora will definately make a better fight of it, than alot of the rubbish so called HW's that call themselves contenders, and then lose their balls when the contract is ready to be signed.
