He was 280 for Baker 273 for Williams so could be some sort of strategy behind being that weight!

Wrong he was 243 for Barker and 244 for Williams respectively. I think that you are looking at the weights of Barker and Williams there.

If Baker was 280 then he must have came in lean for that fight!

Wonder if there is any logic behind Chisora's weight? Fury looks ready for a hard 12, is Chisora maybe hoping to take him out early?

How would excess fat help him there?

A career high for Chisora and on the evidence of this bit of footage he does not look great. My confidence in him winning this has evaporated completely after seeing this. he looks as though he has been doing his training at Burger King.
Even if this part of a strategy to come in heavy against a big opponent, I'm not a fan of this approach as it nullifies any movement and speed advantage the shorter man may have had.

Tyson Fury is really knocking himself into pretty good shape and I reckon he will do it, he has the advantages in height and on hearing how heavy Derek Chisora has come into this fight I will not be surprised Fury's game plan sees him going downstairs and really rip into Chisora's chunky frame because 18 stone and half stone is a lot of weight to be shifting around and I thought he was going to becoming in around 17stone-17stone 4lbs and looking to out hustle Fury rather than looking to blast him out. But all shall be revealed tomorrow night live on Five.

I never expected Fury to weigh less than Chisora. Not sure what that means, but if Fury is in top shape then maybe this is his fight.

i did mention on this forum not to long ago that i regually see chisora leaving night clubs in central london, he doesent appear to be drunk but its still unprofessional imo only weeks away from a big fight. i fancy fury either way, so thats see !

Wohh..
Had it as a 50/50, now I'm favouring Fury big time.
What's going on, Chis?

On a serious note i i think this bodes well for Fury, Chisora looks like he couldn't be arsed and just has to turn up....
Hope its a good fight but jeez i dunno i feel a bit let down already lol, i wanted em both to turn up in tiptop shape and have a right old barny...
Anyways we'll see

Was gonna have a nice few quid on a Chisora KO. Not going to bother with that now. Still think he'll win but not going to bet on it!

Chisora has trained for Wlad twice, and is now facing Fury. Disillusioned maybe?

That should be pretty obvious.
Chisora was apparently weighing 280 when sparring with Sexton a couple of months back, so he's trained pretty hard since then. The long period of inactivity (mainly due to Wlad) seems to have hurt him though.
