Hopefully they get a rematch so Helenius could KO him since apparently anytime a big favorite ends up in a relatively close decision its a robbery
Bro have you watched the fight? Chisora was all over him... :boxing:

If the rematch is in England it would only be fair. Warren will sort it all out he is good at this type of thing :)

Helenius did pretty well considering he fought 11 rounds one-handed.
You can all go re-watch that 1st round.. just one minute into the fight Helenius caught Chisora in the way in with a right cross that made him wobble back to the ropes.
If only that same punch hand't injured Helenius' hand, we'd have seen a quite different fight.
Funny to see all the people bashing Helenius, he was close to knocking the f* out of Chisora in the first minute when he had both arms. We all want a rematch. But before you go and bet all your money on Chisora I suggest you judge the first fight according to R1, not the rest.
Not denying it was a robbery. It sure was. Just saying it's not Helenius' fault.

Poor Chisora, jobbed like a mofo.
Judges need to watch the fights on TV and in complete silence.
