He ducks nothing but hes not a legend like Evander Holyfield. Hes a good fighter like Briggs for example and a brilliant keeper for the division but nothing impressive imo.
It's all in the nickname. Brits love it when they use a phrase Americans have no clue about. It's as if the US loved a boxer called Mr Rogers.
He who said that, are just trolling while they are drunk. If he fights Wilder next, at this stage even good payday will not compensate the damage. He is basically asking for a wheelchair and I don't know why.
Not a legend - but he's got one of the better hearts we've seen in a long time and most of his fights entertain. Chisora isn't given credit for it, but he's demonstrated that he's very, very good at fighting off of the ropes. He's a modern master of rope-a-dope.
I would enjoy getting a glimpse of the alternative reality where the close ones went his way. He would have some pretty great wins but still a fair few losses. What would his reputation be like then?
The difference being that Hammer's fights are about as satisfying as a plateful of diabetic chocolates...
Yeah he is a legend in my opinion... Tyson Fury X2 Robert Helenius Vitali Klitschko David Haye Malik Scott Kevin Johnson Kubrat Pulev x2 Dillian Whyte x2 Carlos Takam Artur Szpilka Joseph Parker x2 Oleksandr Usyk This man has been in the ring with them all, never ducked a fight, always is on the front foot. Out of all his losses, the only two men to Knock him out was Haye and Whyte. I've been a big fan and supporter of Del Boy over the years and hopefully he does retire soon but there's definitely fight in the old dog yet. Bakole, Joyce, Whyte III are just a few of the fights I'd like to see him in, and they are fights he is capable of winning.
No chance. With the amount of losses he has, despite some being against very elite fighters like Fury & Prime Haye, there's no way he is near legend status. He was never good enough to win a World Title but I do think he probably should have won it back in the day as worse people have held it (Charles Martin & Ruiz spring to mind).
He is a legend of sorts...the Bert Cooper or Henry Cooper of his day (maybe he should change his name to Cooper). He's a gatekeeper-to-the stars. Unlike an ordinary gatekeeper, he doesn't separate journeymen from contenders, he separates blue-chip contenders form fringe contenders. People really like those kinds of fighters, and yeah, they end up having a legacy that people remember.
