    heard the interview on boxnation with him and Steve bunce,

    hes going to send the American Tapes (neutral ground) of the Helenius/Chisora fight to the official boxing board along with a complaint, american commentators have Chisora winning by a landslide.

    Has anyone been succesful in the past overturning a decision?

    Being that Dawson still TKO'd Hopkins in the 2nd, I doubt it.



    Besides, it's not as though it were Chisora who got the gift and the local Helenius were filing the complaint.

    Unfortunately, there's no chance of the result being overturned. It just doesn't happen.

    The best we can hope for is the judges to be suspended, like the ones from Lara-Williams. It really was ****ing shameful.

    Since there was a title involved there's always the off chance an immediate rematch gets ordered, but other than that, there's not much that could come of it. The one plus side is that enough people saw the fight to see that Chisora won clearly and looked pretty good doing it- that should help his cause in lining up another big fight.

    As much of a chance there is of boxers who were robbed against Waren fighters getting their decision overturned.

    It never happens. There is no point speculating.

    Chisora is the people's champ. That is all that matters.

    Well, OK - having the belt and the money matters a bit. Chisora has our all respect, though - so he's rich at heart...or something...

    I don't think it will be overturned.

    Sauerland said after the fight that they would like to give Chisora a rematch, but Helenius has an injury to his right arm which will take some weeks to heal, and then the EBU requires he fights Dimitrenko.

    If Dimitrenko gets a world title fight with a Klitschko, then perhaps Helenius will rematch Chisora next.

    Interestingly, a doctor advised that Helenius not fight yesterday because of an already-existing injury to his right arm, but they went ahead with it anyway.

    That was a pitiful decision and I actually feel bad for Chisora... although he's a human POS. But he deserved the nod here, boxed his heart out.

    Why do these stories always come out of the woodwork following a loss. Its lame, even if its true. You chose to fight so stfu and stop taking credit away from a worthy challenger.

    I believe the commission sit on that this month. It's getting overturned - there's no way flinging someone to the canvas can be a knock out.

    Also, Frank isn't looking to have the decision overturned, he's asking for a rematch.

    It really sucks though. Was watching that fight and commenting in your RBR and I was going mental cos I just saw it coming. Everything building up to the scorecards. The behaviour of the ref, the fact Saureland had it 5-1 to Helenius after 6. The ref's antics were despicable. I saw Helenius get battered from pillar to post within the first 6. Didn't do much else after that. Landing a few heavy shots in a round doesn't win it if the guy in front of you is smashing you up with pressure and landing his punches.

    Just hoping Chisora doesn't lose motivation now after that. he may just think I beat the guy up from start to finish and, left it all in the ring, played his part to making a great fight and job jobbed big time. He may just say **** boxing! A real shame.
