Chisora's antics tend to work because, rather than putting on a fake persona to sell fights, he really is a nutcase. A more mellow one now, but still a nuttah.
Chisora is everything wrong with the sport the sooner he retires the better and hopefully disappears and not get into commentating. Spitting at someone is as low as you can go and I can never respect him.
Loved Chisora's back & forth with Usyk during the build up to their contest, almost as entertaining as the fight itself. What a shame he never fought Shannon the cannon... Can only imagine the antics that would have produced.
i welcome all these characters, they bring boxing alive. Even Rolly, as tiresome as he is, has value for the boxing business which is why he keeps getting fights. Pro-boxing can't be built around vanilla characters - there'd be just the 10% hardcore fans meaning infinitely less money in the sport and lower paydays.
The really gifted athletes would just find another more lucrative sport to compete in.
