...why?

[letsgochump]

He has been flattened and beaten bloody so many times I have lost count. His fighting style is tailor maide for brain damage. I really hope for his own sake that he stops making it worse and worse.

Proberly time to hang um up, but I reckon he could maybe give new British champion Fabio Waedley a run for his money.

Whyte vs 13L

At least Williams was "justified" by money needs. Chisora, as you said, is rich... and shot to bits. One thinks about self-destruction instincts.

Incidentally, I wonder why Fury, given that he keeps calling him a friend, didn't put him out of his misery with a couple of shots rather than pounding his head for all that time.

Yeah I don’t get it really. As you say Williams needed the cash, Chisora surely doesn’t but remains hell bent on continuing.

I thought the same, I actually expected Fury to carry him and this fight fi be a glorified spar. I even had a bet on Fury by decision for that reason. Instead it was a sustained beating, that was tough to watch from round 2 onwards tbh.

Chisora’s chin is almost a curse for him at this stage of his career. Instead of it being one shot, he’s taking a lot damage and countless head shots. I really hope he sees sense and calls it a day but I doubt he will tbh.

I agree, I think it's just all he knows so it's hard for him to stop. Someone that cares about him needs to convince him to step away for his own good. I like chisora, he'll fight anybody and always give his all. I'd really hate to see him end up like Ali.

He needs saving from himself. We all know how this ends if he keeps going. He’s visibly shot at this point. It’s getting to a stage were it’s becoming dangerous.

Joshua will beat Whyte more impressively than Fury.

Then that leaves only one true big relevant fight left for the both of them.

Chisora vs Whyte III.

It is most likely a winnable and competitive fight for both fighters, and one that both fighters would want to win.

Since the Uysk fight, I have honestly? Always sensed that Chisora deep down goes into fights, not with the sole intention of winning.

On the sly his goal is to put in a good effort and survive the full 12 rounds 'Deliver on his product of entertaining, and pushing opponents in dramatic fights'.

I think this is one of the reasons David Haye stopped working with Chisora. Haye regardless of how people mock him, his sole intention was always to win 'Always to somehow someway reach the top of the sport'. Even in the latter part of his career, fighters like Haye are immune to becoming gate keepers.

They are ether at the top, Champions or out of the game. Derek Chisora throughout his entire career has had a different attitude.

And for me this attitude has became more apparent since he lost that close fight to Usyk. That was the last fight were Chisora came with 1000% passion and a intention to win, that lost really upset him etc.

I only see Chisora coming with that same type of passion, and intensity of intention for Dillian Whyte.

[JakeTheBoxer]

Del Boy, you are my favorite gatekeeper ever, but it is over.

You made a big money, hang`em up and live your life.

I understand Hearn wants to pay even more fighting the guys like Hrgovic, Zhang, but is not worth.

Fury-Chisora IV in the Spring?

[Liondw]

Chisora loves boxing, and he almost doesn't mind taking some punches to get his punches in.

Almost everybody would prefer he retires with that good sum of money he earned.

More punishment is not worth any extra money.
