Derek Chisora has picked Tommy Fury over Jake Paul in Sunday night's grudge fight in Saudi Arabia, backing his fellow Brit to land a massive knockout.
Chisora has been heavily involved in promoting the bout, which airs on BT Sport Box Office in the UK, flying out to Riyadh to help host their launch press conference which Fury himself missed. He even faced off with Paul in place of his fellow Englishman at the end of the event, gaining a viral moment of his own in the process.
But Chisora has backed Fury over the American despite their good natured banter at the media event, declaring that Paul may have overlooked his rival after being branded the bookies' favourite. The pair have been due to fight twice prior with Fury pulling out of both, and it is believed that Paul may have the more impressive CV despite never having beaten a true boxer.
