Klitschko vs. Chisora: Why Underdog Chisora Will Pull off a Shocking Upset

Vitali Klitschko's is primed to be upset. Unfortunately for him, Dereck Chisora is just the man to pull off the feat.

Consider the following, from Steve Bunce of ESPN:

"

But in Klitschko's most recent fight against Tomasz Adamek, we saw signs of physical disintegration that will fill Chisora with hope.

On that night in Poland we saw the incredible way Klitschko's legs gave way under him - and how, after the battle, the people surrounding him tried to gloss over that fact. Could that be revealing? How much more can the 40-year-old Klitschko's body take? His people simply refused to believe what they saw.

"

The elder Klitschko also focuses the majority of his time on politics in Ukraine. Will he be mentally prepared for this fight? Does he still have the needed edge?

Because Chisora knows exactly what he will have to do to stand a chance of beating Klitschko, as he told Donald McRae of the Guardian:

"

"The psychology of the Klitschkos is to be nice to you before the fight and then destroy you in the ring. With them it's just business. But Briggs is stupid. He stood there and did nothing. So I have to take it to Vitali – without a doubt. Vitali don't like going backwards. I've got to go at him from the start, fight inside and hurt him."

"

If Klitschko isn't focused for this fight, if his legs give out again, if his age truly is catching up to him, and if Chisora is able to get inside and pummel Klitschko with punches throughout the fight, the Brit stands a legitimate chance.

Of course, he has to make sure he doesn't get caught on his own chin by the powerful Klitschko.

But Chisora might just have the game plan, the moxie and the focus to pull this off. Get ready for the upset.
