This content is protected Chisora has been chasing this fight non stop since the first fight ended, I think he was lowballed otherwise he would take the fight in a heartbeat. Or Whyte is talking crap which wouldn’t surprise me either
Whether people like it or not this fight will actually do big numbers on PPV. Both fighters should get 1mill plus for this.
Yeah I agree it will be ppv if it happens but I wouldn’t be surprised if Whyte is asking for something like 75%
And? Whyte is the only one who is ACTUALLY relevant. We all know Chisora just bought himself one last payday vs Takam. Chisora v whyte does good numbers on PPV. even taking the small money Chisora will get paid. Whyte is a top 5 heavyweight. Chisora isn't top 20.
I had Chisora edging that fight with Whyte and so did a LOT of others and Del is also coming off a fairly big win. Pay the man properly or miss out on the payday would be my advice to Whyte. Lot of very greedy fighters out there in negotiations end up costing themselves millions because they can't see the bigger picture. I'd rather have 50% of something than 100% of nothing.
Whyte arguably lost to Chisora first time around, the same Chisora who was beaten much clearer off a 60yo Vitali and sparked by Haye.....yet Whyte arguably lost.....let that sink in. Also Whyte is only marginally more relevant due to living off getting KTFO BY AJ.
I doubt either of them really want the rematch, that first fight took a lot out of both fighters and neither have improved hugely so I think we probably get a fight just as good as the first one. It sells out no problem but I think I’d rather see them fight miller and ortiz as those are much more intriguing Whyte was a bit of a wally not to go for an eliminator and fight Parker imo, he had the opportunity to fight pulev, Ortiz and Breazeale and chose Parker instead for nothing. I won’t be surprised if the AJ rematch doesn’t happen in April, AJ has his mind set on a big fight with the Fury/Wilder winner and after what seems like a tough sell with povetkin I think Hearn will be desperate to get AJ in with the winner. Chisora on the other hand doesn’t seem fussed about who he fights it seems as long as the money is right, I wouldn’t mind seeing him in with the charr/oquendo winner or kownacki
Chisora is riding the crest of a big wave. Why does he want to take a career ending defeat? I don’t know what options that leaves for fight mind. Ortiz? Breazeale? Kownacki? Jennings?
Whyteleafe been fast tracked through the “Eddie Hearn said...” course in pathological lying Pretty clear to anyone without a sky brain implant that Del Boy wants this fight whereas whyteleafe is the chinny robots next opponent
Chisora is well liked and respected even by casual fans who know that on his day really comes to fight & brings entertainment. He is very relevant. Personally, I don’t think Whyte wants any of that again.
Chisora probably thinks hes worth more than he is after the Takam fight. I know Whyte was saying Del Boy wanted stupid money for the rematch, and hes pulled stunts over money at the last minute with fights previously, so he's probably looking for more money
Parker>Takam. As already proven when they fought each other. Great win by Chisora though, take nothing away from him.
Chisora, probably not anymore, was a rough tough busy fighter and yes imo, would've pushed Ortiz at the right time, now I don't know..Whyte can crack too, not sure why others don't see this. He punches hard enough to hurt and get respect off anyone
