    Peter Fury made a good point on Twitter. Maybe Kabayel should have been fighting Whyte and Chisora should have got the easier fight in Helenius.

    Although I wouldn't confidently pick Whyte against Kabayel anyway so there's that I guess. They want him in with Wilder so won't risk an L

    Different fight but not worth a new thread...Harlem Eubank lost that for me, felt for the French fella cos that should have been a knockdown and he outworked and landed good shots too. A gift decision to Harlem.

    Tbh I thought the fight was very similar to Parker v 'Shades of Ali' apart from the fact that Chisora landed far more clean punches than Parker did.

    Anyway don't think it matters, as Eddie said the Whyte rematch was never likely since the two wanted PPV money for it.

    Honestly beats me why trainers continue to let their fighters box 4-rounders. One KD even by fluke and then you need a KD or KO to win, gameplan goes out the window. Even 6-rounders are a joke IMO.

    Indeed Harlem lost that fight.

    I'd be pretty sure you are probably the only person on the forum who wants to see a rematch for some bizarre reason! It was boring as ****!

    Well I am a fan of Del and that last round was fantastic. I'm sure in a rematch Del would bring more.

    If Chisora were the champ, he should have kept the belt with that performance. This way around, I don't have a problem with the result even though I would have liked to see Chisora winning this. It annoyed the **** out of me when Agit found his balls in the 12th and started shouting stuff to Chisora. The guy literally turned his back and ran away many times in that fight.

    How old are you?

    Was a strange fight. You had the feeling that Del had the potential to do something but just never did. I think if you had no knowledge of either fighter the decision would be easy - Chisora lost. Frustrating because it is better for us had he won. But realistically he just didn't turn up until the 12th. Not much else to say really

    Del lost, but it was much closer than the Sky card. I think they decided Del was losing the early rounds and just continued with that rhetoric the rest of the fight, picking up on a Kabayel jab instead of the pressure from Del. All in all a poor performance from Del, came in too heavy and didn't really get to grips with Kabayels movement.

    Sounds like the story of Dell Boys career.

    Gets handed a massive opportunity on a plate, then eats the plate and everything on it, and loses because he is carrying too much weight and lacks the fitness/punch output to get the UD win.

    Chisora needs to get in shape and get his career back on track his a good European fighter but if he doesn't really wanna fight anymore he needs to retire he is to good of a fighter to become a domestic journeyman losing to prospects

    I thought Kabayel won.

    Chisora looks like he couldn't give a toss most of the time.
