    I don’t actually have a problem with Whyte and I like his fights usually, he’s definitely of a simple mind though and strikes me as the type who will never know when to quiet when he starts getting on in age. Needs to be very careful.

    Wasn't my point. I granted that Chisora may have had an off night.

    My point is that,even with a different Chisora, Kabayel still did better, so how do we wing the pendulum all the way to the other side? I would say, weighing everything, there is some parity there, or a case to be made either way.

    100% dive.
    He even gave Ortiz a little tap on the back to say, "cheers, i'm out of here"

    I meant Rivas and Parker are better than Chisora, who is Kabayel best Career win thus far.

    Oh dear.

    Remember when there was excitement around Ortiz? That was embarassing.

    Are they better than Chisora though? It's debatable. Who the hell has Rivas actually beat? Parkers best win is Takam who Delboy smashed up. Obviously triangle theories dont work but they are not much better if at all.

    I would say Parker best win is Ruiz ( i had Parker winning 7-5 and beating Takam 8-4)


    I would say Ruiz, Takam and Hughie are better wins than Takam, Spzilka, Scott and Price (could.argue he should of won against helenius).

    Obviously having the better resumes don't always mean he would beat Chisora. However if they were to fight I would back Rivas who has much better defence and looks to have a better variety of punches than Chisora and little quicker hand speed. Would be good fight I think.

    Meh I don't really rate fat Ruiz either but each their own. He was a fat mess in that fight too haha. The fury fight is debatable for me also.

    You love a CV debate and Rivas just doesn't have one. He was hyped up to sell a PPV over here and has literally done nothing since.

    It really is splitting hairs to say they are better than Chisora.

    In terms of rating "top 10" i do debate that proof is pudding and you have to go o resumes rather "eye test". However styles makes fights.

    Rivas best win is the same as Ortiz and certain people on here rate Ortiz as a top 10 fighter and refer to him as the "bogeyman" which is narrative PBC like to ru with despite no evidence really backing up p this claim. Yet Ortiz is Wilder's only real notable win and some people on here class as top 5 HW.

    Except Ortiz battered a younger version. Who wlad couldlnt make a dent in.
    Where Rivas got a late TKO 4 years later in a fight he was losing.
