    He has lost 4 fights now in almost consecutive order. Where does he go from here? im still not sold on him, he gave vitali a tough effort but in reality vitali won big and won 9 rounds at least. I think he should stick to fighting british guys like Price and Harrison he can make money doing that and be competitive in those fights

    I do think he will have to pad his record a bit before he gets another decent fight, I can see a Helenius rematch though.

    he's got some decent fights in him still. there's actually alot out there for him. that being said, he needs to fine tune his game and come in ten pounds lighter.

    I think Chisora is right where he was before the fight: A gatekeeper for the true stars.

    ----------

    To be fair, he did pretty well against Haye, landing quite a few meanungful shots.

    In fact, if the ref hadn't stopped round three 10 seconds early, Chisora might have actually KO'd Haye. The ref was CLEARLY protecting Haye at that moment.

    Not to mention, Chisora later beat the count, and was good to go. Chisora 'aint much, but he was robbed Sat night.

    I liked his tight guard but he should just used his jab more even if it was just to Hayes chest. Instead of the wild shots and the knife stabbing motion with the right hand. Had he used controlled pressure he would a got to haye

    I don't think he is done . Hell he just started. He got into big fights he wasn't ready for. I don't think he will amount to much . But he has a name to go with his fine record.

    To anyone who says he lost 4 fights now is ****ing ******ed

    He beat Helenius

    He was 261 pounds for Fury

    He put up a decent showing vs Vitali

    He was just beaten by Haye

    Outside of the Klitschko's David Haye is the best heavyweight out there, no shame in losing to him. His career is by no means over although he isnt going to be fighting any british guys anytime soon (BBBofC revoked his license and i dont think theyll be reinstating it anytime soon)

    I can see Chisora going back out to Germany to fight the likes of Kubrat Pulev, Alexander Povetkin etc.

    Needs to fight some cans, hype jobs and C Level fighters to get some wins back under his belt but ultimately he's only young, there's heaps of room for improvement in his game and he can be around in the post Klitschko era and be a force in the division.


    ........................but if he decides to continue fighting the absolute best out there, as he has been doing, he would undoubtably find himself with a massive cult following. Even if he continues to lose to the top guys it won't matter because he comes to fight and would be celebrated for his courage. Brits would eat that **** up.


    The division needs a fighter like Chisora. Even more so in a time when very few of the top guys dare take risky fights. He'll be fine.

    Sorry but WHO is to blame for Chisora comeing in like a tub of lard against Fury? If you are going to use that to play down Fury's clear win then the fact Helenius suffered a career threatening arm injury should also taint the "win" you want to give Chisora over him...

    Chisora's best win to date (as in WIN not "the fans think he won") is against Sexton, twice, a domestic level opponent. I'm afraid that until Chisora scores a genuinely notable win he'll be only the 4th best Heavyweight in Britain.

    I hate these stupid ****ing threads.


    'Done'? He's in his 20's, what's he gonna do, sit at home for the rest of his life? Boxing seems to be the only thing he's anyway decent at so what do you think.

    And he said at the ****ing press conference he's going straight back to the gym to prepare for whoever's next, so no he's not ****ing done.

    How old was Benitez when he was effectively "done"? 25 maybe 26?

    Age isn't always what does you in.
