With Oleksandr Usyk vacating three of the 4 major heavyweight titles, the heavyweight division has suddenly turn out to be more open. Derek Chisora believes that despite the brand new opportunities, only two fighters have separated themselves from the remaining of the pack.<\/p>\n

Chisora said Moses Itauma and Daniel Dubois are the one heavyweights he sees causing problems for everybody else within the division now.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s just one person on this generation immediately who could cause a headache for everyone, and that\u2019s Moses,\u201d Chisora said to Secondsout. \u201cAfter which I believe Daniel has removed his demons. Them two. But I don\u2019t see anybody else. I don\u2019t see anybody else troubling those two guys immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Chisora\u2019s confidence within the pair prolonged beyond the division\u2019s other top contenders. Asked about Fabio Wardley\u2019s rematch with Dubois, he predicted one other defeat for Wardley, this time ending even earlier than their first meeting.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think. What’s Fabio Wardley going to do? What\u2019s different from the primary fight?\u201d Chisora said. \u201cI believe this fight, the rematch, will end sooner than before. I really like Fabio, but I don\u2019t see him troubling Daniel immediately again. He has to vary something in his game completely.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The veteran was equally dismissive when Agit Kabayel\u2019s name was brought up, saying he doesn\u2019t imagine the unbeaten contender defeats either Dubois or Itauma.<\/p>\n

Chisora acknowledged that Itauma faces a big step up against Filip Hrgovic, but still expects the 21-year-old to come back through.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cNo. It\u2019s going to be a tough fight, but Moses goes to dig deeper, and he\u2019s going to win it,\u201d Chisora said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

When asked who wins if Dubois and Itauma fought today, Chisora admitted it was a difficult selection before ultimately siding with the unbeaten southpaw.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI even have to go along with Moses,\u201d Chisora said. \u201cSouthpaws are hard to beat. Whenever you shape up, he\u2019s already got a reach on you together with his jab. By the point he lands the jab, it\u2019s a fast one-two.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
