Didn't score it properly but I did think Chisora dealt the bigger shots by a long way and expected him to win by 1 or 2. Pity he was so knackered after about round 6, he just sat in a corner with his guard up catching his breath before he went for another onslaught.
Impressed that Whyte stood up to it because he was more than wobbled a few times but people have got to stop talking about him like he's a serious HW. You get people on non-boxing radio and TV talking about him like he's some young talent just because they've heard of him after Joshua. He's a British level fighter who talks a lot- some of it totally unacceptable (guns, broken legs etc.).
Can't have that last round Chisora one as a knockdown- you can see his feet sliding!
Great fight after a predictable press lead up to it- will probably get a rematch and I'd expect a similar fight: they're not exactly the most skilful, varied fighters about.
I fancy Chisora though, when he really went with that left hook and overhand type right he hurt Whyte who I think only had a chance because of fitness.
