Chisora slaps Klitschko and suddenly a fight no one knew was happening becomes a fight everyone's talking about. It's happened million times before and will happen a million times again. Why does everyone get worked up about this shit, it's all about selling tickets and PPV, nothing else.
^ This.
Chisora doesn't stand a chance, it's a fight for money and an easy one for Klitschko just to keep him on the scene because if he doesn't defend his title every now and then people forget about him completely and his purse drops.
To slap an opponent at weigh-in isn't just about selling tickets though, I also reckon Chisora acted out of fear. He's facing someone he knows could make a mess of him and very likely will. It's certainly not worth a punt. It'll be Klitschko in the early rounds, probably round 3, 4 at a push.
