    he may not have the ability of mercer but He really proved himself to be very durable the other night. I think he could prove to be another mercer.

    One of the worst comparisons ever made. Please kill yourself.

    why?

    ray mercer wasnt an all time great. Ray was a dangerous fighter to the elite guys but he never pulled off a win over any great fighters (though he nearly got nod against lewis).

    he got beat by some lesser guys including a faded jesse ferguson and a 40 plus larry holmes though holmes was still good

    Chisora hasnt been hurt yet and his style is similar to mercer. Dont forget he is still a novice and a late starter to boxing

    Still dreadful, doesn't have the power or Olympic pedigree and I think you're clutching at straws, another abysmal thread, sorry.

    They are both male and human but the fact that ray could / can actually fight seperates them

    Not the worst comparison I've seen by far. Short Heavyweight pressure fighters.

    I didn't say it was the best either. Chisora was trying the jab, threw quite a few to the body.

    Chisora has ability. I dont think he will ever be as good as mercer but he looks like he could be a similar style. i reckon like mercer he will give all the top guys trouble and go the distance

    As i say again he is still a novice. he still has time to develop

    Chisora doesn't have the power and is at least a level below Mercer was, but they're hardly chalk and cheese
