chisora434By Scott Gilfoid: For American boxing fans interested in seeing the November 29th rematch between British heavyweights Tyson Fury (22-0, 16 KOs) and Dereck Chisora (20-4, 13 KOs), they can see the fight on ESPN3.com in the United States.

It’s unclear just how much interest there would be in a fight between Chisora and Fury for casual boxing fans in the U.S, but I’m sure hardcore fans might want to see the fight just for the sake of finding out which of these two guys will

“Awesome news: Fury-Chisora 2 card will stream live on http://ESPN3.com in US. Done deal, according to ESPN. YES! #boxing,” said Dan Rafael on his twitter.

The Chisora vs. Fury 2 fight will take place at the ExCel Arena, in London, United Kingdom. It’s really a needless rematch, considering that Fury easily beat Chisora by a lopsided 12 round unanimous decision three years ago in 2011.

The fight was so one-sided that there’s no real need in the two fighters ever facing each other again, because their fight in 2011 was so painfully one-sided that there’s no way that any other outcome could occur even if they fought 1000 times.

Chisora is simply too short, too slow and too one-dimensional to ever beat Fury. Even with the rabbit punches that Chisora has been throwing in his recent winning streak, he’s still way out of his league against Fury.

The winner of the Chisora-Fury 2 fight is going to be put in an impossible situation where they’ll be stepping up several levels to face IBF/IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko, and neither of them has the kind of talent needed in order to complete with Wladimir.

Chisora was a punching bag when he fought former WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko, and I can’t expect that to change against a fighter like Wladimir. Fury was dropped by Steve Cunningham last year in a fight where Fury was pretty badly exposed.
