    OK Fury would be a close fight he was over weight and out of shape for there fight. He beat Helanius, and everyone else but K2 Haye and Pov are all winable fights for Chisora YDKSAB

    Agreed, he's not and never will be a world class guy. He'll always come up short against the better guys of the division. So what does that make Scott? :beer:pop

    He is definitely world class he beat Helenius despite what the judges thought, he beat Scott, he was competitive with Vitali. He was giving Haye trouble before walking into monster shots.

    He has better head movement than most fighters at heavyweight, he seems to cut off the ring really well, he's strong in the clinches but he lacks the stamina and workrate to fully maximise his current ability.

    Yes he's crude but so was Sam Peter who is one of Wlad and Vitali's better wins. And this era is so weak it doesn't take much to be regarded as world class. Come up with a top 10 list for heavyweight and you'll realise how weak the division is.

    I will say he is in a rut though. He really hasn't improved noticeably in any way since he fought Vitali. He just sometimes shows up in better shape now and again and looks better but in terms of skills and technique he is the same fighter he has been for years now

    :lol::rofl

    In no way shape or form is Chisora world class. He needed a crooked referee to beat Scott. He lost every round but 2 to a 41 year old one armed Vitali Klitschko. Only in Brittard Land is Chisora world class.

    In the current division, he's definitely world class quality.

    He's not world class being way too limited in his boxing repertoire.

    Exactly.


    In my opinion, there are not 10 boxers who I would favor over him.


    He definitely doesn't have world-class skill, but his toughness and heart more than make up for it.
