Chisora (36-13, 23 KOs) enters his forties with back-to-back wins over Joe Joyce and Otto Wallin, results that have reestablished his position as a tough heavyweight capable of forcing trade and bench rounds through physical authority. Wilder holds the deeper knockout record (44-4-1) and has stopped 43 opponents over his career, although recent losses to Joseph Parker and Zhilei Zhang have narrowed the competitive lens around him.
British buyers historically pay when belts, mandatory routes or undefeated fighters headline the event.
Wilder made his name with a right hand that finished nights without warning, often after gathering himself and finding fandom again. The three fights with Tyson Fury took a lot out of him, and the release on that shot now shows a touch more hesitation once punches start coming back. Chisora continues to apply the same pressure. Guard sealed, steps forward, head buried in chest, grappling hook digs into body until the other man has to stand and work. Rounds with him rarely stand still, which is why matchups still trust his style to hold the top of a map.
The £24.99 number is dragging out an old gym-floor debate across Britain. What does PPV earn once fans already cover a subscription? No belts on the line. Name recognition and the threat of a sudden knockout carry the pitch. DAZN folded the event into its Ultimate tier, a quiet nod to the grumbling that follows any sense of double pay.
The winner steps back into heavyweight circulation with practical options on the table. A clean break solidifies negotiating ground for another meaningful heavyweight fight as promoters continue to search for proven draws that can still fill indoor arenas. Alphabet bodies hover in the background as they always do, ready to sanction any line as soon as the dust settles.
