    Proper British scrap....Chisora's got heart but he let himself down. He's not professional enough and I am not even talking 'bout conditioning. He is not listening to his corner. Fury's a warrior but he's just so beatable. Anyway, fair play to Tyson. This guy loves boxing and he showed it tonight.

    get the **** out that's one of the best heavy weight fights i've seen for a while. Obviously what it lacked for in skill made up for in drama but well done tyson ( had me on the edge of my seat ) ....

    i thinbk tyson is one of the most genuine people in the sport today ..he's gone up in my estimations big time..

    It was a decentish scrap but I think today we're starting to get into the danger of describing anything that isn't a total stinker of a fight as a classic.

    I enjoyed that bout and it's really good news it was on terrestrial where a fair few casuals would have caught it; even though Haye was shocking at least his fight got people interested in boxing again and if Ch5 can capitalise on this, get their arse in gear and bring us a few domestic fights (which won't cost them a great deal) we could be on to a good thing.

    It's true, it has. As much as a non spectacle the Haye fight was, this fight (Fury/Chisora) got heaps more coverage than it normally would have had.

    Long may it continue I say and let's hope C5 continue to show interest in the sport.

    Im kinda with you on this one, it was a decent scrap to the hardcore fans like ourselves, although I thought it was one of the most repetitive fights I had ever seen, it was like watching the same clip on loop for 12 rounds:D but all I could think of was the casual 'down the pub' fans enjoying two big fellas going at it & showboating, its the kinda fight that will have the public wanting to see more of both men.

    Decent scrap to the hardcorians, great fight for Joe Public, & the most charismatic guy won, all in all a great starter for C5:good
