Former world champion predicts winner of upcoming heavyweight blockbuster

The veterans will both be having their 50th fight as a professional when they clash at London's O2 Arena on Saturday, April 4, and the fight is live on DAZN PPV.

Ahead of the huge contest, former three-weight world champion McKenzie has broke down the key components of the fight and predicted how he sees it going.

Speaking to Seconds Out, McKenzie said: “This is what makes the fight so interesting, and it is an interesting fight, because if nothing else, it doesn’t matter if these two have both left; they still hit hard enough to knock each other out.

“So this fight is going to be down to two main things – first thing is the endurance of each fighter, how much has each fighter got left in the tank?

“The second is it comes down to the concentration levels; it will be the one who can concentrate for the longest period of time, who doesn’t make that slip, who doesn’t get that big shot.

“If the fight between those two is over here and it’s at the O2, I think you’ve got to back Chisora.”
