    I would have the up most respect for the man.

    I hope he gets remembered for his bravery, heart and never give up attitude.

    Because even with 12 loses, and aged 37, he would give anyone a hard, tough fight.

    There's something very bizarre about Chisora's career in the past 3 or 4 years, possibly even longer.

    I hope someone in his circle will convince him to quit. He's probably already going to have problems with his health down the road, best to stop now.

    Can we just let him beat up Breazeale or the Ortiz/Martin loser (or winner?) to send him out on a high note?

    What about Jerry Forrest?

    The utmost respect should be accorded to Chisora for being able to fleece the pay-per-view mugs repeatedly, despite being a predictable no-hoper. The “tries so hard” and “comes to fight” comments always make me laugh.

    Maybe he should fight Wilder for good money

    He must be the best paid career long gatekeeper in the history of the sport.

    Are you friend or foe?

    All I have to do is put the word out, answer truthfully.

    He is comparable to a few in history, such as Bert Cooper, Jesse Ferguson, maybe Ted Lowry, as beging a guy who rarely wins the big ones, but always seems dangerous.

    He is also one of the most robbed guys I can remember.

    I wish him well and wish that he would have been able to avenge at least the Hlelenius loss.

    He definitely beat Helenius.

    He arguably beat both Parker and Whyte (in the first fight!)


    For a tough, plodding gatekeeper, he's earned phenomenal money the last few years, while also soaking up phenomenal amounts of punishment, I don't like him as a bloke, but despite his won/loss record, he's proved that few people have an easy night with him.


    I think he's a shoe in for health problems in the future, and should definitely retire, but it's up to him I suppose.


    Those cards last night were utter crap though, I thought he possibly won 2 rounds.

    This. The guy never won a single big fight, yet manages to get his fights promoted like he's some type of actual contender. His style is ugly, which would be forgivable if he actually won, but he doesn't. So yeah, good on him for being able to con the gullible boxing public into continuously paying for his fights like he's some kind of draw.

    He's a tough guy and it's time to hang them up. He has taken a metric **** ton of head shots already.

    My best guess is that he will carry on until he is at least 43 years old.
    He will pick up several more losses.
