Why he the hell should Chisora retire?? He was quite competitve against a top dog at the big boys' league. He can still earn some decent bucks as a kind of gate keeper.Whats more he stands for entertainment in and outside the ring. No need to retire at all IMO. The same goes for Pulev.Why should he retire in case he loses to Joshua? Even if Joshua beats him black and blue he can still beat most rivals out there and earn some retirement money.
I hope he beats him,if he gets there.But,I just don't think his chin will hold up.They both don't move head too much,but Joshua covers up better.
Josh lost 3 fights in London Olympics,home cooking.Zhilei won that bronze fair and square at least.And their was home cooking in other weight clases too,only few from GB won fair and square in London.Maybe in Rio they will give 91 kg's medal to Juan Nogueira,I wouldn't be suprised.
We will get our first demonstration of Parker against a serious fighter... then we will be able to better gauge how his attributes suit the elite level. Hopefully Joshua will get an opponent at a similar level too, soon
He would be a better opponent than Joshua's next,yes.He is more proven,yes.He was stunned in that 9 round several times and lost 3 rounds for me against past best fighter.This clearly shows he is levels below Fury and Haye.It isn't all about elite,I always support that that is why I write about young prospects so much,but He lost against Wlad bad and lost to past it fighter and didn't look too good,I better watch Nick Webb tghan his future fight against Josh.
The BKBF or Burger King Boxing Federation is going to be the next sanctioning body. The HW Champ will be known as The Whopper while the featherweight champ will be known as the Fry.
Yeah but he beat champion,avenged his loss from amateurs and destroyed Johnson like no one did.Dimitrenko is past it,look at his last loss,look at his last fights where he was knocked down by yourneyman.He was overweight and slow in his return fight few wins back.You can't compare Dimitrenko to Haye,uncomparable boxers,look at their respective achievements.
