Дерек Чисора Фабио Уордлигийн Даниел Дюбуатай хийх тулааныг түүний сүүлчийн ринг рүү гарах алхам гэж үзэж байна.
Дерек Чисора аравдугаар сарын 17-нд болох Даниел Дюбуа болон Фабио Уордлигийн тулааны талаар байр сууриа илэрхийлжээ. Тэрээр Уордлигийг гурван раундын дотор нокаутад орж, их спортоос зодог тайлах болно хэмээн таамаглаж байна. Чисорагийн үзэж буйгаар энэхүү тулаан нь Уордлигийн хувьд зөвхөн санхүүгийн ашиг олох зорилготой сүүлчийн оролдлого ажээ.
Өнгөрсөн тавдугаар сард болсон тулаанд Дюбуа хоёр удаа нокдаунд орсон ч 11-р раундад Уордлигийг техникийн нокаутаар ялсан билээ. Лондон хотын O2 аренад болох энэхүү дааганы тулаанд бэлтгэхэд Уордлигийн хувьд таван сарын хугацаа байсан юм.
Уордли өмнөх тулаанд Дюбуаг хоёр удаа нокдаунд оруулсан нь түүний цохилтын хүч чадлыг харуулсан ч, Дюбуа тулааны явцыг эргүүлж чадсан нь түүний тэсвэр хатуужлыг баталсан юм. Шинжээчдийн зүгээс Уордлигийг богино хугацаанд техникийн дутагдлаа засч, Дюбуагийн хүчтэй цохилтуудыг сөрөх шинэ тактик боловсруулсан эсэх нь тулааны гол сорилт болно гэж дүгнэж байна.

Derek Chisora isn’t giving Fabio Wardley much of a chance in his rematch with Daniel Dubois, claiming it will be his final walk to the ring.
Chisora bluntly wrote off the former champion’s desire to keep fighting ahead of their October 17 clash, predicting Dubois knocks him out inside three rounds as Wardley collects a closing paycheck.
“I think this is Wardley’s last fight. I don’t think he wants to box anymore. This is his cash out. After three rounds, Daniel’s going to win it with a knockout,” Chisora told talkSPORT.
Calling it a mere cash-out feels overly dismissive. Wardley hasn’t hinted at walking away, nor does stepping back into the fire automatically mean he’s just looking for a payday. Still, the worry about taking another beating is real.
Dubois weathered two knockdowns in May before stopping Wardley in the eleventh round. With their return set for London’s O2 arena, Wardley had about five months to reset his tactics against the champion.
Dropping Dubois twice proved Wardley has the power to hurt him, but it also proved one big shot won’t guarantee victory. Dubois clawed his way back, turned the tide, and closed the show. For the rematch, Wardley needs answers for when Dubois marches forward through heavy fire.
The challenger must avoid absorbing flush shots while keeping his offensive bite intact. That requires picking his moments, slipping away after combinations, and refusing to get drawn into reckless brawls. Making those tactical tweaks is much easier said than done once a heavy hitter turns up the heat.
A five-month turnaround only cranks up the pressure. A quick camp can tighten up technique, but locking in new defensive instincts takes countless reps before they hold up under fire. Wardley now has to trust those adjustments against the man who handed him his first stoppage loss.
Plenty of critics doubt he can pull it off, especially since Dubois already proved he can survive Wardley’s best shots. Chisora may be jumping the gun by declaring Wardley’s career finished, since any retirement talk belongs solely to Wardley. The real test is whether he’s managed to build a completely different approach in time for fight night.
Wardley fought like a guy who thought his right hand was a magic wand, and once Dubois showed he could take the shot and get off the floor, Wardley had zero backup plan.
Going into a fight with a heavy-handed puncher with no jab is suicide at this level. You cannot just load up and heave haymakers from the opening bell against a guy with Dubois’ power. Wardley was throwing wild, missing by feet, and expending massive amounts of energy while leaving the front door wide open for counters. When you swing that wide and miss, you end up off balance, squared up, and taking flush return fire.
By the back half of that fight, he was completely exhausted, eating clubbing shots with nothing behind his own punches. He absolutely made Dubois look like an unstoppable juggernaut simply by refusing to employ basic ring generalship.
That five-month turnaround is the real killer here. You do not fix fundamental technical deficiencies in a single camp, especially coming off a punishing eleventh-round stoppage. Real mechanical changes, establishing a sharp, controlling jab, tucking the chin, learning to step off at angles instead of admiring your work, require live-fire testing against guys who aren’t trying to rip your head off.
Without a couple of tune-ups to build muscle memory under pressure, the second Dubois lands something heavy or starts marching him down, Wardley will default right back to his natural instincts.
That means panic swinging, backing up in straight lines, and looking for one desperate home-run shot while taking another brutal beating. Chisora’s three-round prediction might be cynical, but expecting Wardley to suddenly box like a disciplined technician with zero test runs is wishful thinking.
