    Let's hope he does retire or at least take 18 months out

    Personally I'd rather he does retire

    He's done on the world stage. So unless he doesn't mind being a stepping stone or journeyman he should walk away.

    He's made loads of money, he's a dad now and quite clearly his therapy has taken away a lot of what made him a dangerous fighter. Time to call it quits or at least hire a new trainer and recalibrate expectations.

    He's done. Unless he wants to become a travelling sideshow freak like Danny Williams then he ought to hang em up.

    Chisora should retire or drop to CW. He has no power/size at HW and can't adjust during fights.

    Drop to CW?:lol: He had a six pack at the weigh in on Friday and he was still 241.5 pounds. He'd have to cut off one of his legs to make 200.

    Dropping him from the top 20 seems a tad harsh. Can you think of 20 fighters nailed on to beat him?

    He lost handily but it was to another well ranked contender not some journeyman he was expected to walk through.

    he was definitely no 2 in wbo, pretty sure IBF had him top 5, fightnews (if that counts) have him 12

    think he'll be a good gatekeeper, in the UK he's got a "name" which means hes a good opponent for Joshua and price, which will be good money for him, and if he gets an upset could easily put him in the reckoning again. At 30/31 he's got a few years to go yet.
