Derek Chisora is giving an edge to Oleksandr Usyk as the Ukrainian star gets ready to face Tyson Fury for a second time.
The pair will clash on December 21, live on DAZN , and Chisora, who has faced both men, will be a keen observer when the first bell sounds.
Chisora has been defeated three times by Fury and once against Usyk, but he thinks the latter is preparing better for the sequel.
In May, Fury made a good start, but his approach was turned upside down when he was badly hurt in the ninth round.
Activating his right to an immediate rematch, Fury is getting ready to do it all again using the same training team as the first fight.
Chisora has looked at the way each man has been getting ready in the gym, and, so far, he’s not impressed with what he’s seen from Fury.
“Do I believe Tyson can beat Oleksandr? I look at everybody he’s got in his sparring camp, and I don’t personally believe that the sparring partners he’s got right now are pushing him to be a menace,” said Chisora when speaking to Seconds Out .
“They’re in awe of Tyson. They will pull their punches in sparring, this is what I’m seeing.
“What I see with what Oleksandr is doing is totally different, he is more start fast and finish fast. He knows he can hurt him now. As he keeps saying, he will not leave him alone.”
