Derek Chisora is aiming excessive, wanting Anthony Joshua, Oleksandr Usyk, or Daniel Dubois for his subsequent struggle following his victory over Otto Wallin on Saturday evening in Manchester, England.
The 2 fighters that Chisora prefers are Usyk and Joshua. He says he’s going to name unified champion Usyk to try to setup a struggle with him.
Life like Probabilities?
For Usyk, it might be an enormous pay lower to struggle Chisora, and it’s uncertain he’ll need something to do with a low-level struggle like that. There are such a lot of higher fighters with extra expertise within the high 15 for Usyk to struggle than Chisora, and there received’t be as a lot of a backlash from followers.
Of the three, the probably one for Chisora is Dubois, however solely as a result of he can pressure the struggle on account of him being the IBF obligatory. If it had been as much as Dubois, he wouldn’t waste his time preventing Chisora as a result of he can get larger fights in opposition to Joshua, and Usyk.
Few followers imagine Chisora has any likelihood of beating any of the three fighters on his hitlist, and it’ll be a nasty search for the game if he will get his want to struggle considered one of them and it’s placed on DAZN PPV. Even without spending a dime, there’s no worth in watching AJ, Usyk, or Dubois beat up an outdated journeyman, Chisora.
Yeah, Derek received tonight, but it surely was in opposition to the right opponent, a light-hitting 34-year-old Wallin, who was lately knocked out in 5 rounds by Joshua.
Chisora (36-13, 23 KOs) put himself in place for a world title shot at 41 by defeating Wallin (27-3, 15 KOs) by a 12-round unanimous resolution in an IBF heavyweight title eliminator on the Co-op Reside Enviornment in Manchester, England.
Going into the struggle, Chisora was ranked #9 and Wallin #12, low rankings for a title eliminator. The IBF sanctioned the Chisora-Wallin struggle as a title eliminator for some purpose, but it surely didn’t charge. Neither of those guys is nice sufficient to be preventing in an eliminator, particularly to go up in opposition to Dubois.
The judges’ scores for the Chisora-Wallin struggle had been 114-112, 116-110 and 117-109. The explanation the primary decide scored it shut at 114-112 was that Chisora was getting outboxed by main parts of every spherical and would simply try to steal them with late flurries within the closing 20 seconds.
