Recent Form
Joe Joyce got his career back on track earlier this year as he defeated Kash Ali via a tenth round stoppage in Birmingham. The former WBO interim title holder is on the comeback trail after suffering back-to-back knockout defeats against Zhilei Zhang.
Prior to those two big knockout losses, Joe Joyce had forged a reputation as one of the heavyweight division’s most feared challengers with big wins over the likes of Daniel Dubois, Carlos Takam and Joseph Parker.
Derek Chisora has hinted that Saturday could be his last fight and the popular Londoner has shared a ring with almost every top heavyweight of his generation. Chisora has lost four of his last six bouts, suffering defeats against Oleksandr Usyk, Joseph Parker (twice) and Tyson Fury. His most recent bout was also at the O2 Arena in London where Chisora earned a unanimous decision win over American Gerald Washington.
Tale Of The Tape
| Joe Joyce | Derek Chisora | |

| Age | 38 | 40 |

Betting Tips
A fight billed as ‘Go Big Or Go Home’ between two fighters known as ‘The Juggernaut’ and ‘War’, it’s reasonable to expect fireworks at the O2 Arena on Saturday. DAZN Bet are offering odds of 1/3 on the fight not going the full twelve rounds.
We fear Saturday will prove one fight too many for Derek Chisora and with 15 knockouts in 16 wins, Joyce should be considered at 1/2 to win inside the distance.
Whilst Joe Joyce does not possess explosive speed or power, he has an unrivalled ability to relentlessly break down his opponent. Four of The Juggernaut’s last five wins have come between rounds six and eleven and we’re anticipating another late stoppage on Saturday evening. In the round group betting, rounds 7-9 probably offers the best value at 13/4 whilst you should also give rounds 10-12 some consideration at 4/1.
Fight Odds
| Joe Joyce | Derek Chisora | |
