No Del Boy, just NO. Please retire, as you should have done some time ago. You had more balls than Fury, Haye, and Joshua combined. You ducked NO ONE, but you are damaged goods, just call it a day.

Chisora got no definite career plan, other than fight all the big names randomly.

David Haye weighing in at 210 pounds vs Derek Chisora 247 pounds. Haye became the first fighter to meet force with force and cancel out Chisora's momentum, being the first fighter to not only deck but knock out Chisora at his near peak as a fighter. Derek Chisora after this fight, would not be decked or knocked out for another 7 years almost. Chisora fought 18 more times, before eventually being legitimately knocked out again by Dillian Whyte in their rematch.

Derek Chisora is no doubt a warrior, but I disagree with the notion that he embodies more courage or bravery than all of those fighters you have just mentioned up above 'Derek Chisora compared to Tyson Fury, David Haye and Anthony Joshua. Has fought throughout his career, with way less pressure to actually win at World and Elite level.

Chisora has routinely lost fights, but was still congratulated and received masses of credit for his effort 'And rightly so, because a fighter's effort is what actually creates the action in the fights. And the action is also what inspires boxing fans, and the general public'.

But the fact is? Derek Chisora has not achieved the level of feats that Tyson Fury, David Haye and Anthony Joshua have during their careers 'Chisora has lost 95% of his biggest fights. He lost vs Vitali Kiltschko, David Haye, Tyson Fury I & II, Dillian Whyte I & II, Oleksandr Uysk.

Derek Chisora's career has been awesome, he has performed well as the underdog 'But lets all be real? Anyone who knows anything about sport and competition. Will know that it is much easier competing as a underdog, than it is as the favourite. Because the only pressure which you are being subjected to as an underdog, is the pressure you personally put upon yourself. That is the realm of competition, and the level where Derek Chisora has predominately competed and won'.,

Chisora has very rarely if ever won, at top level in the sport 'He has never won, when the expectation is all on him to perform'.

Note: Derek Chisora did not win the 2012 Olympics, he did not beat Wladimir Kiltschko in his 19th professional fight in-front of 90'000 boxing observers 'In the greatest Heavyweight title fight of the past 25 years'.

Derek Chisora did not fly to Germany and dethrone Wladimir Kiltschko, after almost reigning for a decade as World Champion.

Derek Chisora was not the Lineal and Unified Cruiserweight World Champion. He was not the fighter that became only the second sentiment being in history of mankind, to win a Heavyweight World title moving up from the Counterweight Division.

7th November 2009 'David Haye fought Nikola Valuev, in a fight where he was being outweighed by 7 stone. Haye weighed in at 218 pounds, vs Valuev 315 pounds. The total the weight differential in pounds between the two fighters was 98 pounds. The fight was billed as David vs Goliath.

All of those feats were achieved by Tyson Fury, David Haye and Anthony Joshua 'For a moment in time, those three fighters have at one point stood at the absolute summit of the sport. Whether that be in the Amateur or professional ranks, and then have won'.

To conclude: But regardless, just like Derek Chisora has not competed and won at the level of Tyson Fury, David Haye and Anthony Joshua. Jarrell Miller has not competed and won at the level which Derek Chisora has during his career. Right now, as this fight between Miller and Chisora becomes more of a potential fight. I am not that concerned for Chisora, even now at this stage of his career.

Jarrell Miller as an athlete and fighter, has been for the most part in his career 'Not very impressive'. Skill for skill I don't rate him much higher than domestic level Heavyweight, the only reason why he has maybe excelled above this level? Is because of his share mass, and weight'.

I believe that Derek Chisora, almost in every single metric is a superior fighter 'Even now at this stage of his career'. And even if we step outside of the boxing ring, Chisora in terms of his work ethic and passion for the actual lifestyle of a boxer is much stronger. Derek Chisora in his own way, like's training and it is well documented in boxing circles that he is always in gymnasium'.

This is the conclusive stage of Derek Chisora's boxing career, he has declared this himself. 'I believe that his last fight vs Joe Joyce. Has shown people universally in the boxing world, that in those remaining battles to come? He will leave no stone upturned, and be prepared for a battle'.

I actually believe this is good fight for both fighters, stylistically it makes a lot of sense 'And I still believe Derek Chisora can beat Jarrel Miller, if he has prepared himself for a battle' etc.

Fair comments, but you have missed my point. I'm not suggesting for one moment that Delboy has achieved anything like the fighters i've mentioned, just that he fought ANYONE put in front of him.
No excuses, no poorly big toe, not being offered the right money, ect, ect. He was considered crazy as well as a massive underdog heading for a brutal KO loss against Klitschko,
he didn't fight the old faded Klitschko that Fury fought. He didn't duck Haye, Fury did. He had no hesitation fighting Usyk, i don't remember Fury pushing his way to the front of the queue do you?
So whilst Del underachieved he showed more courage than the others.
