“I have to go to him,” Chisora said. “I can’t sit and pick punches, I can’t do that. I have to chuck my punches in threes and fours. I’m a man with nothing to lose, but I bring entertainment. If I was to say I was going to do this or that, it’s all a lie. I am going to go to war.

“He chose to fight me. I am going to have to eat some leather. I’m going to have to take his power punches. But then he will have to eat my leather because I will go in there to do what I need to do.

“It is going to be a bit of a shock to him, because he is a cruiserweight coming up. We will have to look to see if he has the power as a heavyweight. When I land, he will know about it.

“I have been training for about nine months for this fight,” Chisora added. “Looking at the board in the gym I have had one week off since I boxed David Price (last October). 

“I think I have got more patient with what I did. I didn’t have any breakdowns, my body is performing at 100 per cent. When everybody else was in lockdown, my gym was only just for me.

“There is nothing more I can do. We have trained for eight months and I have got everything right. I knocked out all my sparring partners. We offered £2,000 for any southpaw who could knock me out. But no one has come and tried to knock me out, they have all ended up running out of the gym because they can’t handle the power and the pace.

“I trained every day during lockdown for an hour and when the lockdown ended I trained in the morning for an hour and the evening for an hour. But I had to train hard. If you train hard for three hours, you can’t train hard the next day.”
