Comments Thread For: Hearn Defends Derek Chisora Matchmaking Criticism

[STREET CLEANER]

Chisora is a warrior, an over achiever. He will fight almost anyone that they put in front of him. The problem is that he doesn't say no and is taking a beating even when he wins.

Hopefully he won't have long term effects..

[JakeTheBoxer]

As I said, he should take more fights like Rice, Kownacki, Arreola at this point.

Wilder fight is a pipe dream for Chisora, Del Boy is in a must win to maintain main event status if he's vicorius he can get one last big pay vs AJ when he loses to Usyk.

He is way closer to the end than he is his prime. I sincerely hope he is realistic bout what he can achieve. The man has had a serious career. Just imagine when he is retired and doing the boxing interview circuits the stories he will have comparing and contrasting the opponents he has faced. He will be a treasure trove of information. The list of who he has not fought is a ton shorter than who he has.

I suppose he has a few fights left in him. He is entertaining as they come. Just hope he stays away from the truly dangerous fights. The man needs his health.

I seen the Promo during Bam Fight last night for this fight I'm like "Why? Who The F^ck Asked For This Rematch?"

Terrible and Pointless fight and most certainly shouldn't be a "Main Event" should've threw this Garbage on the Undercard of Usyk vs AJ 2

But saying all the top fighters are ducking each other is pure BS.

they may have came out wrong but let's not pretend promoter wars aren't holding up fights


+ my comment wasn't only about the heavyweight division ,, it was about all of boxing . atleast HW are in better place than 3-5 years ago

[Butt stuff]

Nobody wants to see that. There are many interesting fights for Chisora, like Kownacki, Arreola, Rice, Helenius rematch, Bryan, Ortiz, Martin..

This is like walking into a thread from 2015 not criticising, like. Just amazed names like Arreola and Helenius are still being dropped. They somehow clawed their way out of the boxing career graveyard.

If you say to the great majority of managers & promoters 'there is a fight out there for your boy & the good news is he gets $100k, of which you get 33.33%. The bad news is that medical opinion is clear that your boy should never fight again & if he does he risks ending up in a dense mental fog, like Quarry, like Meldrick, like JuanMa. He will not even be able to tie up his laces or go to the toilet unaided, or recognise his family'. Sad to say 99% of managers & promoters will say 'where do we sign'.

The only one pretending is someone who looks at the list I created and then says all the top fighters are not facing each other which flies in the face of reality. This is about the heavyweight division.

He's lost twelve f...... fights man and idiot Eddie is still trying to say a win over old faded Pulev would put him in a PPV status .Hearn is a complete flicker!

That's Eddie the business man.

Hopefully Derek will never leave in a stretcher and have his entire career earnings lost in 1 hospital stay.
