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

[TheUptownKid]

Chisora is a clown and we know this. How many times has he acted an asss at press conferences? He is a mid level contender who is known for his antics and losing big fights. We have champs and we have fringe contenders, champs will headline

They would both bomb, but it wouldn't surprise me at all if Prograis/Taylor sold more than Chisora/Parker. I have family in Scotland and spend time there regularly. Taylor's WBSS fights have been getting plenty of attention from the kind of casual sports fans who don't usually bother much about boxing. The kind of fans who don't know how easy it is to stream PPV boxing for free.

Chisora is a name, but he's not a star name. He's lost too many times and been in too many boring fights. Very few casual fans would pay to watch him vs Parker, and hardcore fans would stream it without worrying too much about possible poor picture quality and lagging.

Scotland has 1/10th of the population of England.

It's absurd to suggest that two heavyweights both recently on the Sky Sports Box Office fights that did 4-600k buys (both vs Dillian whyte), and who's been involved in the biggest commercial success ever in the UK would do less numbers than a scottish light welterweight who has never been on box office.

What a coincidence, and they both lost too. There's a reason why Hearn put Chisora and Parker on the WBSS final card, and it isn't because he wanted to put money into Kallie's wallet.

And so what? People loved both fights.

You ask the random man in his 20s who Taylor is and he wouldn't have a ***ing clue. And that's the difference in commercial power.

If he was a random casual sports fan he would know who Josh Taylor is and rate him higher than Chisora. If he wasn't, he wouldn't have a clue about either of them.

Is Del Boy a household name in Kuala Lumpur, or what?

Can't wait. I don't really care about Chisora/Parker....the Kiwi can stink out the joint

If you believe Josh Taylor is a name in the UK, let alone a bigger name than Chisora or Parker then you're simply deluded.

Time for Chisora to join Fury over in the States for some real money.

I agree with Chisora. No doubt Prograis fight is a higher level but Chisora is bringing the fans to the O2

I loved this rant. "You are ****ing me with no vaseline!"

Hearn claims he is co-headliner and it was agreed with his promoter before - but on the poster it looks like Prograis is the main event. So I can understand why he is angry.
