Chisora v Pulev II - 9th July, O2 Babby!

[mickey1975]

Took a while to make my prediction on this but here it goes. Pulev wins but the question is how? He didn’t massively put a dent in Del Boy in the first fight but did damage his face a little. Del has 7 more losses and didn’t take much to go down against Parker but I feel he might survive the 12.
Might get pulled out by Coldwell if he starts talking flush shots on the ropes again but I think he might get to the end without hitting the canvas.
Another boring fight coming up and more than likely another dominant win for Pulev.
120-108 or corner pulls him out.
I don’t think he gets knocked out or knocked down. Won’t win though unless he sleeps Pulev with a blast from the past. Can’t see it though.

I think he's with Tibbs.

[Dioufy]

What happened with Coldwell? Thought they were tight?
Scrap being pulled out then if it’s Tibbs. 12 round loss UD incoming.

Chis is starting to sound a bit punchy. He's heading down the Danny Williams route here.

I agree. I've never heard him speak like this before. At the time, I thought the Parker beating would take something out of him.

[ashall]

Alexander won 2 of his last 6 and was knocked out in 2 rounds by Zach Parker last year. Yeah cracking scrap Eddie.

I still dont know how i feel about this fight, but its a tough one to pick.

I think neither have the legs to get pushed back, and because of that i am backing chisora, i think although faded if he can rumble fowards with sustained pressure, working head and body hard pulev will crumble. he obviosly could just walk ont one, but im not sure he has the power for that.

Pulev with fresh legs would likely just keep chisora at the end of a jab with the odd strait right, and although the euro tech has proven longevity at heavyweight im just not sure puleve has enough left to keep it working against a true rumbler like chisora at bay.

side note pick.... Both will target the back of the head at times....

[golden_labrador]

bum fight, but Pulev wins late by stoppage. Del is done

[brilo33]

i think pulev win maybe the cards go otherwise

he looked very punchy last fight too, everything was hurting him, legs were all over the place. parker has never been a puncher at that level either....

pulev is older but he looked pretty solid last fight, schooling a guy who should've gotten a win over mike hunter in his previous fight. not to mention he already beat chizzy handily........

pulev has stagnated since their first fight, but has he really looked much worse than he did before? i dont think so

Pulev certainly has a lot less miles on the clock. Will a defeat here force Chisora to retire. I don’t think so. Unless he gets blasted out. Which wouldn’t be too much of a shock.

[jimmystone]

I think this is a good match in the literal sense. Don't know who will win.

Yeah - that’s my take too. Whilst I think Chis should probably retire i think this is a decent, competitive fight on paper.

[maverick23]

We’ve finally got an opponent for Felix Cash……it’s Vaughn Alexander!

Disappointing opponent although he did beat Luis Arias (after he’d beaten Jarrett Hurd) since he lost to Zach Parker.

Cash needs a big fight after this one.

[gregregegg]

Fuking hell soloman dacres opponent is making a living the hard way.

10 rounds vs ivan dychco last week, probably 8 vs Dacres next week...

Makes you relise how precious some A side boxers can be, wanting a 12 week camp to fight a journymen, when journymen will just flip it and rip it with killers.

[jamesmcdonnell]

I'd say this is a fight that Chisora, who from what I've heard is pretty wealthy as he's invested his money, doesn't really need.

Mate, I am sat at home typing this with enough money for everything I need and I am bordering on being bored to tears. I'd love a ruck to get nervous about and get my teeth into.

I think they want to move Dacres quick but he has just had surgery on his shoulder.

I have to respect any guy that faces Sokolowski as early in his career as Dacres did.

He also said a lot of guys have pulled out or refused the fight with him. Hopefully he can get an opponent with plenty of notice for his next fight anyway. The same with Fabio Wardley it’s time for this lot to start stepping it up.

[Gnome]

Something tells me all of Chisora's wars are going to catch up to him in this fight. I might put some pounds on Pulev early.

[Glass Joe]

Chisora should retire if he doesn't win Saturday. Danger of turning into the next Danny Williams.

Wardley needs to be moving on from TBA at this stage of his career

[Ruthless-RKO]

Wardley needs to be moving on from TBA at this stage of his career

Worse thing is it's a 10 rounder as well..

When you have TBA this close to a fight, it means he ain't going anywhere anytime soon.

[cormack]

I am thinking this will be del boys last hurrah and he gets KO`d by Pulev , although if he managed to spark Pulev it would make a shite fight worthwhile .

[chinarich]

I’m almost certainly wrong here but I think Chisora dredges up a big punch from the archives to stop Pulev, much as he did with Takam. I’m conflicted with that though, because I think he should hang ‘em up, he’s earned well and I don’t want him to take the extra punishment that a win here would lead to.

[gregregegg]

So is wardly going to fight this show vs a bum? or will they bait and switch and move im to another show to help with ticket sales there...
