Deontay Wilder vs Derek Chisora Predictions, Picks, Odds

Published on

In a bombs away affair between two aging legends at the crossroads, U.K. brawler Derek Chisora will face American bomber Deontay Wilder in Chisora’s backyard at the O2 Arena in London. Wilder vs Chisora ESPN Bet Boxing Odds have seen underdog Chisora, 36-13, 23 KO’s, backed heavily with 63% of boxing picks on the underdog Wilder.

Wilder, 44-4-1, 43 KO’s, has looked like a shell of himself following his trilogy with Tyson Fury, but the “Bronze Bomber” still could put himself in line for another mega payday if he can get past the gatekeeper Chisora.

Deontay Wilder vs Derek Chisora Predictions Boxing Predictions

Neither one of these fighters is anywhere near what they once were, but Wilder has more bullets left in his gun than Chisora. At 42 years old, Chisora is a brave chap with little in the way of imagination, with his only attack being to plod forward and wing punches from the nosebleeds.

Wilder, 40, has slowly eroded both physically and technically since he split with trainer Mark Breland after the Tyson Fury rematch in 2020. Since firing his longtime trainer after 12 years, Wilder has developed a boatload of bad habits that have even affected his once-vaunted punching power. Despite his best efforts, the completely shot Chisora won’t be able to land enough haymakers to win this one.

Wilder should be able to withstand Chisora’s bull rushes and manage to sneak in an occasional bullet right hand that will sway the fight in his favor. Chisora may get in an occasional lopping shot, but without much accuracy, he is unlikely to buckle Wilder.

Chisora came in at a career-high 267 lbs., which could affect his gas tank. If a stoppage does happen, it’s likely to come late, with Wilder having proven that he carries his power late.

Boxing Predictions & Best Fight Picks

Wilder should be able to find enough room to land his still potent right hand in spots to eke out a decision. While betting the Wilder via decision prop is tempting at +800, Chisora could be just stubborn enough to survive the distance in his last stand.
