“Del Boy” faces a tall task when he squares off against Otto Wallin on Saturday at the Co-Op Arena in Manchester, England. While Chisora (35-13, 23 KOs) is entering his last bout in the UK, Wallin (27-2, 15 KOs) is looking to find his way back into the title picture in the heavyweight division and could be on to bigger and better things with a win.

The two had a contentious staredown at the weigh-in Friday, which concluded with Chisora putting the Swedish heavyweight in a headlock.

“I put the fear of God in him,” Chisora said in the aftermath.

Chisora is coming off of a decision win over Joe Joyce in his last fight, while Wallin got a first-round knockout of Onoriode Ehwarieme.

Here are the keys to victory for both Chisora and Wallin.

It’s no secret the kind of fight that’d need to take place to play to the advantages of both fighters.

If Chisora is going to pull off the upset, it needs to be an ugly, phone booth-type of fight. Chisora thrives when he’s on the inside and battering his opponent with hooks and uppercuts.

Digging the body will also be imperative for Chisora. The odds he’ll be able to catch Wallin early are low, so investing in the body and getting the 6-foot-6 southpaw to slow down later in the fight will likely be Chisora’s best bet to end his “Last Dance” on a high note.

Chisora (35-13, 23 KOs) has challenged for heavyweight world titles on two previous occasions, falling short both times. The British veteran, who will have his final UK-based fight on Saturday, shocked the boxing world with an upset of Joe Joyce this past July in London. Chisora has vowed to retire after his 50th professional fight, making this the penultimate time we will see him in the ring.

Wallin (27-2, 15 KOs) was a little-known prospect when he was picked to face Tyson Fury in 2019. Just three months prior, Fury had make easy work of Tom Schwarz and was expected to do the same against Wallin. However, in a shocking twist, Wallin extended Fury the 12-round distance and famously opened a huge cut over Fury’s right eye, which required 47 stitches. Wallin has since won seven of his past eight bouts, losing only to Anthony Joshua in late 2023.
