Looking forward to this one.  Reckon Chisora will win by KO but if it goes the distance Fury on points.

Reports confirm that currently both fighters have all their toes in prime condition so should be a good un. ;-)

    I have had a bet on Chisora by Knockout at 5-2 on Betfair earlier in the week but the odds are now.15-8.
  • I think (not 100% sure) that Tyson is 9 " taller.  If he has the sense he'll be keeping Chisora literally at arms length with his jab bit like Klitscko did with Haye.

    Massive height difference.

    Fury is 6'9, Chisora 6'1.....like you say, if Tyson can keep his head he should be able to control the fight (he has an ELEVEN inch reach advantage)

    I think Chisora is rightly the favourite but seeing him come in at a career high weight of 18st 9lbs was a surprise. He's half a stone heavier than Fury despite being 8 inches shorter. I think his last 3 fights he has been around 17 and a half stone.

    And Fury has made a bold statement that he'll quit if he loses. Although i'm sure thats more of a headline for the press than anything else and he'll change his mind if it does go Chisora's way.

  • Refreshing to see a title fight on terrestrial tv.  Miss the old ITV coverage.
  • Looking 4wd to this one , should be good when's khan vs judda

    apparently channel 5 have some sort of deal going on with showtime so there's a chance 5 will show the Khan fight later in the week

    Was really looking forward to the Chisora V Fury one but can see it not being as good a fight now considering how fleshy Del is. 

    Notice since Khan got the hump with sky there has been very little publicity for this one

    Thats the last thing you want to do against a guy that big!    Still take Chisora to win in the 3rd

    Chisora looks unfit. The longer this goes the better chance Fury has.
