    vitali won clearly. even scoring this a draw would've been highway robbery worse than what campillo experienced.

    With that said Vitali did not outclass Chisora in any way. He just beat him in a clear concise way.
    Chisora did well. He met every possible expectations anyone could have had on him.

    Close fight. I thought Chisora won it 7 to 5. Best heavyweight fight we've seen in a while and much better than Haye's performance against Wladimir.

    At least the Klit fans can stop going on about Vitali not losing a single round since his comeback.

    Lol no. At best, Chisora won 2 or 3 rounds. Which, by his standards, was good. But it was a dominant victory by Vitali. No doubt.

    I think Chisora won 3 or 4 rounds. Overall the fight was closer than the cards suggest it was though. None of the rounds were one sided.

    Vitali won clearly. While the rounds were competitive, Vitali won virtually all of them. I scored it 117-111

    Gisora won a round or two, but he landed some good shots.

    Let me analyze what we saw last evening

    Chisora with his tank- style approach wasnt an easy cake to eat for Vit.Derek is strong, short, muscular, with good movement. For Vit who is very tall and 40 years old it is a hard matchup. However Dereck is not technically good, so his punches were rather visible, allowing Vitali to avoid most of them , by leaning, which btw I think Vit mastered

    Chisora was 12 years younger, with no fear, with attacking approach, but still he lost rather clearly to 40 years old Vitali.However that was really good fight, which in conjuction with post fight action ,made this one of the most memorable HW fights in recent years
