Chisora (36-13, 23 KOs) enters his forties with consecutive victories over Joe Joyce and Otto Wallin, results that restored his standing as a tough heavyweight capable of forcing exchanges and banking rounds through physical authority. Wilder carries the deeper knockout record (44-4-1), stopping 43 opponents across his career, though recent defeats to Joseph Parker and Zhilei Zhang have narrowed the competitive lens around him.
British buyers historically pay when belts, mandatory routes, or unbeaten fighters headline the event.
Wilder made his name on a right hand that finished nights without warning, often after he gathered himself and found range again. The three fights with Tyson Fury took plenty out of him, and the release on that shot now shows a touch more hesitation once punches start coming back. Chisora keeps applying the same pressure. Guard sealed, steps edging forward, head tucked into the chest, hort hooks digging into the body until the other man has to stand and work. Rounds with him rarely stay quiet, which is why matchmakers still trust his style to hold the top of a card.
The £24.99 number drags an old gym-floor debate into the open across Britain. What earns PPV once fans already cover a subscription? No belts at stake. Name recognition and the threat of a sudden knockout carry the pitch. DAZN folded the event into its Ultimate tier, a quiet nod to the grumbling that follows any sense of double payment.
The winner steps back into heavyweight circulation with practical options on the table. A clean stoppage sharpens bargaining ground for another meaningful heavyweight fight while promoters keep searching for proven draws who can still fill indoor arenas. Alphabet bodies hover in the background as they always do, ready to sanction whatever line forms once the dust settles.
