Comments Thread For: Chisora: Put Me In Main Event Or Pull Me From The F*****' Show!

Del Boy has been around Haye to long now .. if the heavyweight depth below Joshua and fury wasn't so bad chisora wouldn't even be entertained.. he's just a plodder with a crass attitude which has its place but certainly isn't top billing at his time of life and shop warn age , I bet they will be looking for a replacement as we speak , matchroom , sky and saureland won't be having to much of him .. silly idiot is already on borrowed time and earning his worth way after his sell by date ..

Chisora should calm down a little. Beat Parker and become top 10 guy, getting bigger fights.

Not much to read into here. Chisora wants more money from what is probably his last chief support.

This could even be staged by Matchroom to get some interest for Chisora fight.

Interesting negotiation tactics. Would be moot though if he already signed the contract. If he doesn't honor the contract and pull out, what would be the damages he can be sued for? The projected revenue attributed to Chisora-Parker bout? Good luck calculating this, btw. Unless they have liquidated damages, which is more likely.

I doubt Chisora will pull out, it would create a rift between him and Eddie and make him pretty unattractive to other promoters as he proves to be unreliable, let alone at the end of his career. But if Andy Ruiz kicked up a fuss and it worked, Chisora might have decided to do the same. If this rant lands him a few hundred thousand extra, that would be a lucrative rant, wouldn't it?

P.S. Parker will also jump on a cash wagon: if Chisora gets paid more, shouldn't I be as well?

Chisora has form with this sort of thing. He refused to promote the first Whyte fight until Hearn gave him his Rolex - then he immediately went out and threw a table and sold the fight.

Chisora would kick off in an empty room

[JakeTheBoxer]

Could be that Chisora just makes a promotion of event for Hearn. Nobody cares about Taylor and Prograis there. They need Chisora to have some crazy moments and make some noise obout this event.

I'm a huge fan of the Rugaroo, I think he waxes Taylor in a good fight...but DelBoy is right about this.

Folks will be showing up to O2 mostly for his fight with Parker.

If you are not going to put his name at the top of the card, you have to pay him since he and Parker are definitely the main attraction.

I actually wanna see Taylor AND Prograis against Chisora now... in a WWF oldschool cage! Make it happen!

[DuckAdonis]

He shouldn't be the main event. He isn't even top 10 at Heavyweight right now.

Prograis-Taylor is a unification with the #1 and #2 in the division...w/e. He probably sells more tickets tho, but I could care less about that.
