    On the subject of Chisora it'd be a shame if he was just being groomed to be a name on someone's resume. He's better than that and still has a lot left to offer the sport. It's ultimately on him though. He can't come into fights looking like the son of Sam Peter, even if he's fighting random pipe-fitters from the Baltic. He needs to get some damn professionalism into his game and start using each fight as a learning opportunity. He models himself on Frasier so he needs to start trying to fight like him. Frazier kept up his white hot activity level no matter who he was fighting. Constant head movement, constant pressure, constant activity. Chisora sometimes shows flashes of that but too often resorts to becoming a random plodder, presumably because he can't keep up the pace or loses mental focus, I don't know. He'll never be a one punch knockout artist, so he shouldn't try to fight like one. Frasier's an excellent model to base himself on, but he'll need to put in the work to make that style work.

      Er, what?

      What fights?

      Who promotes David Price these days? Are Sauerland setting up that?
      He's getting paid to fight guys on his level. Why risk your life fighting against the second coming of Mike Tyson in Anthony Joshua?

      On the thread topic, I'd like to see Chisora rematch Robert Helenius.

        Hopefully AJ will be ringside @ Helsinki this weekend to sound out the Helenius/Rill winner!

          Whyte & Chisora should be arguing about who's fighting David Price next...or they could fight for it, but I suppose after that fight the winner is taking a step down to fight Price.

          And if Joshua can't get Chisora next he should aim for Erkan Teper. I believe that would be for the IBF #1 spot as well as the EBU title. Getting Joshua lined up for the Glazkov vs Martin winner would be a great position for him to be in. Although idk if Teper vs Helenius is a mandatory doe & has to happen before Teper could fight Joshua.

            Chisora is the mando for the winner of Helenius & scoobie bum from Canada unless Teper comes back sooner. Teper will then face Helenius. The winner of Teper/helenius gets chisora. Although beating Joshua would catapult him up the rankings. Fighting Teper or Helenius would be a nice payday & if he won he could still fight Joshua with more at stake...
