x
announce
the
fight
in
protest to the British Boxing Board of
Control’s fine they slapped on Fury after
his outburst in front of media ahead of the
original
date
in
June.
Tyson’s
mouth drew as much intrigue to
the fight as
the
contest
itself.
Should Frank Warren be worried about
the lack of attention to this fight?
Not really, the anticipation will grow
as the fight nears. Fans have seen
the build up to it before, so that
presents little interest. But as the
contest approaches the hype will
increase
and
viewing
figures
will
be
high.
The fight itself will be the selling
point, not the trash talk and bad
blood. Tyson is the favourite, but
always
a
vulnerable
f a v o u r i t e . C h i s o r a ’ s
resilience and strength will keep him
in the fight even if Fury is firmly on top.
Some fights and some cards
just speak for themselves; I
certainly
believe
that
Fury-Chisora
2
will
be
one
of
those.

Who wins Chisora Fury II?
WRiters picks

I see it as pretty much a 50/50 fight,
both men have added motivation for
this one and have their reasons to be
confident about winning. Both have
their vulnerabilities too. But I’m going
with Fury I think. He just has that bit
more about him,
exudes confidence and doesn’t know
when he’s beat.
Adam Canavan
(BMM staff writer)
I’m going for Chisora by stoppage. I
feel he’s foughtthe better competition,
learnt more and improved his
technique to get more power in his
punches. Personally I think he’ll catch
Fury late on, but it is a real 50/50 fight
in my opinion!
Sam Coulter (BMM staff writer)
Fury on points. I think he’ll be more
disciplined than normal and use his
reach but I think it will be tough and
Chisora will put in a good performance.
Jordan Stone (BMM staff writer)
I think Fury wins, I think Peter Fury will
come up with a game plan that if Fury
sticks to he’ll win easily on points. I think
Chisora will come out of the blocks fast
but Tyson will weather the storm and as
the fight progresses he’ll take over. Fury
UD for me.
Peter Wells (BMM staff writer)
While I expect a much better showing
from Chisora this time around, it’s hard
to see past the physical advantages that
Fury possesses. Chisora must get inside
early if he is to have any chance on the
cards, otherwise he’ll be relying on
occasional bursts to break down the
often vulnerable Fury.
Jack Sumner (BMM editor/writer)
Though it started competitively, Fury
eventually ran out a pretty comfortable
winner in their first bout, but Chisora
was clearly out of shape and has
dramatically improved his conditioning since. Not only that, but of the two
Chisora has been the more active fighter since their first
meeting and has
fared well against better competition,
making big improvements as a fighter
overall.
