#1. Heavyweight: Derek Chisora vs. Otto Wallin

The Derek Chisora vs. Otto Wallin fight is a matchup few are in a hurry to watch. In his heyday, Chisora was a legitimate title challenger, twice fighting for the WBC heavyweight belt, having competed against the who's who of the division, like Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury.

Those days, though, are gone. Chisora is now 41 years old and a shell of his former self. This is reportedly his penultimate boxing match, and Wallin just isn't the right opponent for it. Although a serviceable fighter who has occasionally faced elite competition, he is unlikely to spark the flame of an exciting firefight.

Wallin has very little power, preferring to jab from long range in southpaw. He is an out-fighter, and when things get dirty, he abuses the clinch by holding onto his foes. While there could be excitement, the probability is low, and Chisora may not win either.

Although powerful, he won't be able to outbox Wallin, and lacks the skill and speed to both cut off the ring and close the distance on him. His only hope is to stop Wallin, which is possible. It'll be Chisora's 49th fight as he pursues his mythical 50th and final bout.
