That's a fight I most definitely would love to have seen. Dokes at his best probably had the fastest hands in the business, and could have been so much better had it not been for drugs. Even the not-so-good version gave Holyfield the best non-title heavyweight fight of the 1980s. I would lean towards Dokes to win the decision but Chisora would be there to the very end in a pretty competitive contest.

Clearly two different level of fighters. Dokes win this fairly easily.

Dokes wasn't that special. He struggled way too much with Cobb. His handspeed and power were good, but he could be swarmed and/or hurt. He would likely win, as Chisora loses barely every big fight, but it would be far from a walk in the park for Dokes.
