British heavyweight title challenger Dereck Chisora predicts he?ll be too wild and unpredictable for WBC world champion Vitali Klitschko when they clash in Munich, Germany on Sunday, Manila Time.
The fight will be telecast on the top-rated weekly boxing show ?Bigtime Bakbakan? on AKTV IBC 13 at 12:00 noon immediately after Viva Sports presentation of ?The Main Event which will feature highlights of some previous fights of newly crowned IBF light flyweight champion Johnriel Casimero.
Although much smaller that the giant Klitschko, Chisora vowed to end the reign of Klitscxhko who hasn?t lost since he was stopped by Lennox Lewis because of bad cuts on June 21, 2003 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles when Klitschko was leading 58-56 on the scorecards of all three judges.
Klitschko merely shrugged off the predictions of Chisora and promised to show why he is the champion and has ruled for so long.
Chisora said he only knows one way to fight and added ?I will be walking forward for every second taking the fight to Klitschko. He won't get to use his height and reach against me with the way I'm going to fight. Eight is my lucky number, and that's the round when I'm going to stop him."
The challenger claimed "I have never been so relaxed before a fight. We are trying to make training as much fun as possible. I?m mixing hard work with rest and plenty of smiles. I don't think Klitschko will be smiling come fight night.?
He insisted that ?The Klitschko team don?t like me because I?m wild and unpredictable and I?m not like any of the other challengers that bow down in front of them. It scares them because they no control over me. The way I?m going to fight he won?t be able to keep up with the pace I?m going to set. It will be at a hundred miles an hour and his old legs won?t be able to keep up.?
Chisora emphasized ? I?m not scared of him, he?s human, he bleeds and so do I, I?m looking forward to this now, it?s so close. It?s the end for Vitali, I promise you, I will end the Klitschko reign and cause a massive upset in my magic round eight that will be felt around the world.?
