    He's still not a totally easy opponent either. That's what impresses me about him

    Sam Soliman or Sakio Bika deserve a shout. Stacked résumé’s and acquitted themselves admirably against the very best despite always falling short.

    Greatest journeyman is an oxymoron to begin with to be fair.

    Nothing to explain,if Chisora can be labelled a Journeyman/gatekeeper then so can Shavers ! Have you seriously looked at the level of Shavers opposition for the vast majority of his career,like I mentioned he had power so always had a punchers chance !

    Correct and anyone in any doubt needs to do some reading up on what a journeyman really is.
