Neither will win a world title so that really dampens any excitement for the fight. I'm convinced people only watch Fury to see him get knocked out. Chisora isn't a draw at all.
It's a low stakes rematch. Is anyone really that bothered about the outcome?

Fury has at least won against his toughest opponents while having 2 knockdowns score
against him.
Chisora has lost every time he has stepped up while having 2 knockdowns scored against him.
Fury handled Chisora the first time with no problems.I feel Fury has improved and will do
the same thing.

I get the point you're making, But I do hope you not trying to compare Fury's "toughest opponents" with those that Chisora has faced over the years??

Chisora at the very least has stepped up whilst Fury hasn't come close with his list of opponents.
But was prepared to to fight Haye. I don't get your point.
Fury was more than willing to face Haye.Because of circumstances way beyond his control he was left sitting on the
sidelines for nearly a year.
I have no doubt in my mind for the right money Fury would fight anyone.But I do not think he
would risk his high rating for peanuts.I don't consider this ducking opponents.I think it is taking advantage
of the position he is in.I feel that way about several highly rated contenders that can and will make millions
once their opportunity arises.
If and when Fury defeats Chisora.Wlad will be next.This fight can and will make him millions.Why risk it
with Povetkins,Pulevs or Wilder?It does not make sense.

Fury is much more popular in the general public. He will have the crowd that night. Massively. I don't think Del has ever sold a ticket. Maybe a few on here should get over their agoraphobia and go cheer him on?
Low Mickey. Not surprising though.

You say that, but I remember being incensed by the result of the second Williams vs Sprott fight. Looking back though, it was probably Sprott's fault for leaving himself undefended.

Remember when fans were chanting "Cheat, Cheat, Cheat!" at Danny? :lol:

Heady stuff. Audley vs Danny, anyone? Remember the ironic cheers when, after about nine rounds of Mogadon-laced "action", Harrison actually threw a left cross?

It missed.

Danny had some fantastic finishes. The left hook that finished Sprott after the low blows was devastating.

Then there was the Kali Meehan blowout, the comeback bludgeoning of "Big" Bob Mirovic, the one armed knockout of Potter....

If only he had got his head and weight right. He definitely could have picked up a world title of some sorts.

Chisora was very overweight and apathetic in the run up to the first fight and during the fight itself. He's lost weight, seems more motivated and has performed significantly better in his last few. I don;t think Fury has improved much, although he should be the winner on paper. It's quite an intriguing matchup and I'm looking forward to watching it. On telly. I mean, it's not that good that I'd leave the house.

Fury was equally in as bad a shape as Del in the first fight. Fury has improved a lot. Del can't improve. He is what he is.

Chisora has improved somewhat but he is what he is.Is correct.He is a decent fighter who will be used
as a measuring stick for real contenders.

You think 6'9" Fury coming in at 255 (he says his best weight is 252) constitutes equally bad shape as Chisora coming in a 261?

Aye, whatev.

I think an out of shape younger Fury who still had too much for Del will still be outclassed when Luke is fully prepared.

Luke. :lol:

I've heard most of Fury's sparring has been with Martin Rogan and Eddie Chambers. Absolutely ridiculous (even by his standards) if true.

It has to be doubtful whether Fury will be in as good shape as the Johnson fight, given his last performance. I think the bubble bursts with this one. Chisora TKO9.

Coming from a bloke who has Dean Francis above Benn and Eubank, I think we can discount that...

You clearly have a vivid imagination if you have Francis in the top 5! Sheep? On what grounds? I go where I want.

I looked at his early performances when stopping David Starie and winning the Euro champs and assessed him as capable of beating Eubank and Benn. What's wrong with that?
