Are you mental? Before Fury, Chisora put on a belting performance against Pulev; he'd had a run of a few goods fights before that too. Paul doesn't deserve credit on this forum until he starts fighting boxers.
Pulev was shot to pieces and semi-retired after having that triad fight against Frank Mir, and still arguably beat Chisora.
The point is do boxing fans really want to see Chisora on the end of another highlight reel ko at this stage of his career? Mairis Briedis | Best Knockouts - YouTube
You're definitely taking the ****. Chisora lost again against Pulev but was gifted a hometown decision - both looked shot to pieces. Prior to that he'd had three consecutive losses in all of which he was comprehensively beaten.
That video is really something to watch! Where did they find so many big, bald, tattooed, no-skillz-having, sloppy, wide flailing punch throwing, running-face-first-into-punches type dudes??
I guess Briedis is at the end. He has a gasser against Opetaia, and, whereas most were comfortable with the decision, a good number thought he won. It's too bad he doesn't want the rematch, or the octopus, but fair play to him. He has had a very good run, and if he's looking for a few paydays, I hope he gets them. The man has beaten Huck, Glowacki, Dorticos, Perez, Charr, Mann, Duradola, and Michaelyan...sort of. His losses to Usyk and Opetaia were also extremely honorable and only contribute to to his legend. Good luck to him with whatever he does next.
I don't know Breidis so not going to make a claim over who would win in a bout with Chisora. I definitely would like to see Chisora retire. I thought he deserved the W but it was a close fight. A lot of heart from both guys and it's all relative; Chisora still delivers what you expect him to. Anyway the point I was trying to make was not that Chisora is in the form of this life, but that comparing him to Paul is ridiculous.
Against Usyk and Parker though, hardly against scrubs ..... Chisora is shot but Briedis is past prime, this isn't a bad fight for Briedis at least - he gets a name and it probably will sell alright - British fans love watching the old warhorse Chisora.
A belting performance where he got a split decision at home? lol. Never mind that pulev is forty something. Breidis kills Chisora.
