Comments Thread For: Derek Chisora: I'm Not Retiring But I'm On My Way Out

[Nash out]

Amen, no-one’s coming into boxing looking like they’d get off the sofa to fight in a car park round the back of Tesco ever again. By that, I mean not at the kind of level he’s been operating at.

Old man browne and blue du rag man better watch their top spots on our respective p4ps if he pulls it off tonight

No doubt about it. If Chisora wins tonight, he takes number 1 spot, and if Old Man Browne is not happy about that, then he and Chisora will have to settle it in the ring. Nash out.

I love Chisora. He's a once in a generation boxer, not in terms of ability, but it will be a long time before another man (the complete package of him) like this comes along in boxing to take Chisora's spot. He's a rare breed, and should also have Helenius, Whyte 1, and Parker 1 wins on his record. Very good CV then too. I admit though, he looked shot to bits in the Parker rematch. Hopefully one last hurrah tonight, and a win, and only a win, keeps the Chisora train moving imo.

I think Pulev has got this but I want Chisora to win

I’m often railing against slugfests in boxing, but contradictorily love what this guy brings

Hope for a good fight, Pulev is a pretty well preserved 41 but this is definatley a fight between 2 guys in the last chance saloon.

Respect to Chisora though, very rarely has he dissapointed in the ring, win or lose.

How can people not love him! He’s a character, always in good fights.
Although he has lost a few fights, he’s never really been beat that bad(apart from the last one against Parker)

Yeah, that was a strange one. He looked totally outgunned in places, but at about the 2 min section of every round, even rounds he was knocked down in, he came back and wailed on Parker.

Horrific conditioning on display from both men, but the fighting spirit from Chisora was proper code of the bushido

I have a feeling he is going yo take a beating in this fight. His last few fights hes took way too many shots. Its only a matter of time before we see a big decline.

Hope I'm wrong tho chisora is a likeable character

[JakeTheBoxer]

Even if he beats Pulev, he must cherry pick his next opponent right. Fight somebody like Ortiz, Rice, Kownacki, Arreola.

****ing love this guy, but hope he comes out the other side of boxing ok
