    This would actually be a good UK scrap, not quite Bugner-Cooper but a similar setup. The up-and-comer isn't exactly well known or wildly popular yet and Chisora can still generate a following. Chisora wouldn't make it easy and we'd see what Itauma made of it.

    Going through Whyte, Chisora and those sort of fighters would certainly build up Itauma's credibility with the casuals he needs to make a good living! And with the Saudis of course.

    Yes it was clear it was a unanimous decision with Chisora scoring the only knockdown in a 10 round fight = clear decision.

    All 3 judges had it unanimous the majority opinion amongst boxing outlets and boxing fans and the majority opinion is for Chisora = meaning clear.

    I thought Del beat Joyce easily

    He's going to get one more fight anyway, we need to accept it, so I wouldn't mind it being one of Dubios, Joshua or even Wilder.

    Just get it over with before the new year please.

    I believe he will have more than 50. He will box Whyte again at some point. Possibly a hiatus in there somewhere

    Wish he'd just clear off tbh. Sick of him gatecrashing interviews and going on like he's a big draw for the likes of Usyk.

    Chisora would get badly destroyed if they put him in with Itauma. It would be a terrible sight. But Chisora knows not to take that fight. He probably feels he can milk an extra couple of winnable fights out of this game still. Wins or close losses that will invariably be celebrated beyond proportion by the media and the cult following that have explicitly turned Chisora into a 'folk hero'.

    Even at his best, he barely has ever broken into the world's top dozen heavyweights actually. Far from being numero uno.

    For Chisora's own sake, he needs to stay away from punchers.

    It's painful watching Chisora these days. His balance and footwork has completely gone. It was never great to begin with, but these days he constantly gets squared up and switches stances, and not deliberately. Delboy hasn't suddenly and deliberately changed into a switch hitter in his old age. He just gets confused whilst trundling forward. He is an accidental switch hitter.

    Add in the fact that he is slower than ever, easily hittable (speed and defence were never his strong suits in his prime), and is blowing out of his arse after 3 rounds then him facing a hard hitter is just cruel.

    I honestly believe that Chisora maybe the only name heavyweight out there who Wilder could still beat. And, Wilder is more shot than JFK.

    If Chisora insists on fighting on, he really should be fighting the Wallins of the division.
