Official: Vitali Klitschko vs Derick Chisora & undercards RbR Discussion Thread

[junior gong]

Not read any comments on here yet. Chisora deserves massive props for putting in a great shift against Vitali. I havent seen Vitali look so uncomfortable in a fight for years. He looked gassed and genuinely rattled at times, also he was pretty marked up at the end. I know people(harcore K fans) are going to cry foul and disrespect over some of Chisora's antics, but what was he supposed to do? Assume the role of sacrificial lamb like most,sorry, all of their previous opponents in Germany?

I am a big fan of the brothers and they for the most part are great champions, role models and fantastic ambassadors for the sport, but if I had a criticism about them, then it would be how they weight the odds so heavily in their favour with their behaviour at home.

so refreshing to see someone hadnt read the script.


* further edit. David Haye...That is what putting an effort in a world title fight looks like. Chisora made Haye look like even more of a bender with that performance.

it will be hard to ever rank vitali and his bro for that matter amongst the top heavy weights as they fought in an era with the most useless compitition in histroy, but what you do have to give them credit for is how they have dominated the division for so long

[SirTomJones]

Vitali was injured
Vitali was unlucky
Vitali was inexperienced when he quit like a b!tch

Now we have: Age is catching up to Vitali....

The only time Vitali appears to be prime is against D-Level opposition.

I assume you have never laced up and got in the ring? you are in no position to talk about ' quit like a biitch'

as for age the guy is 40 this is a fact.

don't let your hate cloud your judgement.

Roach had it 117-111

(both for Vitali)

117-111 is a very appropriate score for the fight I thought.

[HitmanHattonAY]

great effort by Chisora tonight !, he showed alot of guts and determination and it proved to be a very tough fight for Vitali

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Vitali is 40 years old.

A lot of great heavyweights have been younger than 40 and lost to worse boxers than Chisora.

Stop with the excuses

[SirTomJones]

Stop with the excuses

no excuses. even at 40 he beats the young ones.

Weren't you going on about how he was gonna teach Del a lesson and beat him up? LOL....now we gotta feel sorry for old man Vitali! Poor form Jones, poor form.
