Tony Bellew says the Unified Heavyweight Champion, Oleksandr Usyk, will not give Derek Chisora the send-off pension fight he asks for. There is nothing for utility to fight with a battle at that level, and it does not make financial sense, because there will be a small interest from fans outside the UK.
The harsh reality
Chisora, 41, sounded deceived and called out Utsyk and Anthony Joshua after his victory over Otto Wallin last Saturday night in Manchester, England. His face was beaten and swelling worse than any other struggle he had during his 18-year-old professional.
They tried to play it off and say the facial damage was because of a head collision, but that was not the truth. Wallin was beaten in his loss. He would have won as He showed courage Because Chisora (36-13, 23 COs) was exhausted by the eighth round and looked like a punch bag through the rest of the fight.
Chisora’s promoter is likely to detect a heavyweight at the domestic level for its 50th and final battle, but no more than that. If Chisora wants to wait until 2026, he can use his IBF -sheltered place to challenge Daniel Dubois, but it will not be the big payday he is of course looking for. He wants the AJ and USyk money.
You can’t expect usyk to fight to get to the level to enjoy an off-and-out traveler like Chisora. As soon as he does, he will put every ham and Egger push him on a battle night and day. It would be a nightmare for the champion.
“I don’t think there’s anything for Oleksandr Ulsyk to win in that battle. Now, believe you me, he is the boss of the (heavyweight) section), ”Tony Bellew tells Talksport Boxing About the United Heavyweight Champion, Oleksandr Ulsyk, is unlikely to give 41-year-old Derek Chisora a rematch.
“So, nothing is really at stake for him and nothing he wants, I don’t see that he is about the old ground. He is not someone he rarely does. A rematch he wins so easily unless it is financially beneficial. I just don’t see it.
“For Derek he deserves the one big ride in the sunset. 50-0 and out. I would like to see him. There are so many. He even called his friend. He said he wanted to fight against me, crazy, ”Bellew said about Chisora.
Scrap Hope Options
Chisora must forget to get a fight against Oleksandr Ulsyk or Anthony Joshua in his 50th battle. A more realistic option would be that Chisora talks to Frank Warren and makes him match one of these British heavyweights:
– Moses will bite
– Frazer Clarke
– Fabio Wardley
– David Adelye
– Lawrence Okay
– David Allen
– Johnny Fisher
– Nick Webb
It is fighters right in Chisora’s alley, and he may beat one or two of them. Obviously, it would be bad for Chisora if he fought Itauma, okolie, Wardley or Clarke, but at least it would be entertaining.
It would not be fair for the fans to fit Chisora against the IBF heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois, because Derek does not deserve to fight for a title. It wasn’t enough to hit a bad bad Otto wall. It will not be a good look for the sport for 41-year-old Chisora to slaughter as the opponent of Dubois in one round. You can only imagine the anger of the fans who paid to look directly. They would feel that they were deceived with this Sham fight.
