Chisora poised to shock the boxing world by beating Wladimir

By Dave Lahr: Unbeaten British heavyweight Dereck Chisora (14-0, 9 KO’s) is on the verge of shocking the boxing world on December 11th in his fight with IBF/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (55-3, 49 KO’s) at the SAP-Arena, in Mannheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany. The hard hitting 26-year-old Chisora is a big underdog in this fight, but he has the power, youth and defensive ability to pull off a huge upset in Wladimir’s own adopted country in front of what will be a packed arena on 12/11.

Wladimir is facing a fighter with the power and the skills of previous Klitschko conquerors Lamon Brewster and Ross Puritty. I actually think Chisora is a better fighter than both of those fighters due to his defensive skills. Chisora is not easy to hit with head shots, because of the Joe Frazier-like head movement he likes to use. Chisora also stays very low and it’s difficult to punch down on him because weaving and coming in at such a low angle. Chisora waste time on the outside against the 6’6″ Wladimir.

He’s going to come in low and once inside, Chisora will pound Wladimir to the head until he falls. Under normal circumstances, Wladimir would grab and clinch someone like Chisora to shut down his attack. However, Chisora won’t be clinched and will punch out of every clinch Wladimir attempts, forcing the big Ukrainian to fight harder than he wants to. That’s the key for Chisora. He has to make Wladimir work hard, because the Ukrainian’s stamina is suspect and his chin becomes weaker as he starts to run out of energy.

Chisora can’t let the 34-year-old Klitschko rest for an instant on the inside, because he likes to rest and lean on his opponents when he’s holding onto them. Chisora can’t let him rest. he’s got to keep the pace fast and furious and take advantage of Wladimir’s mistakes in trying to grab all the time. I see this as a very winnable fight for Chisora, I really do.

    It would be one of the biggest upsets in history, but it wont happen, this fight is over before it begins, Chisora is well out classed and this fight should be another KO to Wlad.

  • VOK says:

    what’s the difference, Jon Boy? Chisora makes no more or less sense than anyone else from the second ten. actually, I don’t see much difference – money apart – between Chisora and Haye. same easy fight.

  • slayeral says:

    lahr its amazing that you havent stoped writing alltogether you are wrong about every sing fight u ever write about,you know nothing bout boxing retard,the mighy klitschko brothers will never lose idot

  • DeadScared says:

    Well I’m not counting Chisora out in this fight. The man’s got balls and I’m pretty sure he won’t do a bloody “Harrison”. I respect Chisora and what he does. Others do nothing more than talk trash. Come fight night the better man wins.

  • Jon Boy says:

    Despite a detailed arguement by blahblah, its no excuse 4 wlad 2 b fightin Chisora – a boxer who only has domestic experience, 4 a world title fight.

    And even if the Top 10 arent gonna fight him now, surely there’s other boxers like those ranked 11-20 that could challenge him.

    i smell sh1t!!!!!!

  • Anonymous says:

    i agree with tbomb. i dont understand all this fuss about Chisora. he hasnt beaten anyone good, and i dont think he even deserves a title shot, much like that worthless harrison didnt against haye.

  • hungry germans says:

    Chisora is going to be a “Futter Fest” for the germans. The question is how long will Wlad let Chisora last.

  • Achilles says:

    this says what wlad is made of. chisora is a good fighter and not coming off a Ko or loss. good choice in opponent.

  • PatPump says:

    @…Blahblahblah……Very good post dude!

  • Blahblahblah says:

    ferge: “why has wlad not had more abuse over this?”
    ———-

    Because, unlike Haye, Wladimir has actually fought contenders, and continues to fight whichever contender will get in the ring with him.

    Let’s look at the top 10 challengers to Wladimir’s title, as ranked by Ring magazine:
    1. Vitali — Wladimir isn’t going to fight him, ever.
    2. Haye — Wladimir signed to fight him, but Haye ducked out. Wladimir offered him a 50/50 deal, but Haye disappeared from the Earth.
    3. Povetkin — was the mandatory challenger to Wladimir, but avoided signing for over a year, finally admitting he didn’t want to fight Wladimir.
    4. Adamek — he’s not making any excuses or pretending he wants Wladimir; is busy getting experience.
    5. Chagaev — Wladimir dominated him 18 months ago, after Haye pulled out of the fight.
    6. Chambers — Wladimir dominated him earlier this year.
    7. Boystov — recovering from a very serious hand injury. A promising prospect.
    8. Valuev — avoided both Klitschkos throughout his career playing in the second-rate league that is the WBA.
    9. Dimitrenko — getting his career going again, fights Sosnowski next week. Might be a good challenger for Wladimir.
    10. Arreola — destroyed by Vitali last year, beaten by Adamek this year. A fight with Wladimir would generate little interest.

    There are very few fighters who have both the talent to give Wladimir trouble and the nerve to step into the ring with him. Sad though it is to say, Chisora is perhaps one of the better choices Wladimir could have arranged for this December. At least he has shown some promise. He’s not some has-been looking for one last paycheque.

    David, David Lahr; David, David Lahr; David, David Lahr….super Davy Lahr

  • Chris says:

    Almost every single fighter that comes against the Klitschko’s says that they will “get inside” of the Klitschko’s long reach. You know what happened to those fighters?? Pizza face is what happened.

  • DeadScared says:

    This Brit fighter got Balls. The other one ain’t got none.

  • edmon andrea says:

    your the man…

  • amatuer says:

    Dave have you even considered writing a comedy blog if not id advise it. Derek Chisora is a domestic level inexperienced fighter with 14 wins most notable being danny williams wow that strikes fear into the hearts of fighters.Most people dont even give david haye a chance and your saying chisora will .think before you write it annoys me when people have no basis for an argument. Ive come to a conclusion either your derek chisora himself iin disguise or a family member or a coach/trainer because it doesnt make sesne

  • ferge says:

    I’m not sure which is the biggest joke chisora getting a shot at world titles or harrison getting a shot, this really needs to be sorted out too many second rate fighters being allowed to be used as title defences is cheapening all the belts, why has wlad not had more abuse over this….

  • T>T says:

    chisora is a massive outside but it is goin 2 be a great night for british boxing fans. 9 hours of boxing. i am looking forward to the degale fight and 2 see nathan clevery as well. Followed by a 50/50 khan maidana fight

  • True Brit says:

    Power = ordinary against moderate domestic opposition.
    Youth = as heavy weights go… They don’t develop fully to their late 20′s and into their very early 30′s.
    Defensive ability = defense isn’t something I would say is a standout quality of del boy. This is not the 2nd coming of Joe frazier bobbing and weaving into range.
    Derek Chisora hasn’t beaten anyone of note to date. Sam Sexton with all due respect is a domestic level fighter and the win over Danny Williams tells us nothing as his career was at least 3 years past finished.
    Chisora has only one facet of this fight in his favour. He has nothing to lose. Wlad will not under estimate Chisora and have him out of there before the end of the 4th round. The first sign of trouble and Chisoras corner will have him pulled out of the fight. He’s young enough to come again, alas not at world title level. It’s a pity that Chisora appears to be a pawn in the game of getting Haye in with the Klits.
