It´s as simple as that. The whole event would have been cancelled had he hit Chisora with his bare fist. The result would have been a broken nose, a broken cheek bone... you name it. Vitali is a true professional. Chisora an the other hand must be one of the dumbest person ever to step into the ring. Instead of cherishing the biggest payday of his career (money he will never see again) he decides to give away 50.000 USD to pay what he got fined now. But okay, he´s from Africa and from the British underclass: two of the worst things that can happen to a person intelligence-wise.
If derick wins, that slap will be called genious! I just hope vitali doesnt look for the knockout in the first few rounds because of it, if he does he will loose. Vitali has been smart so far, lets hope it continues in the ring, then we will have a good fight
No. He didn't hit him back because he was momentarily shocked. Nothing wrong with that but it's the truth, unlike the splurge of bull**** you've just come up with.
Vitali did stumble from that slap, but so what, he wasn't prepared for such force to hit him. Come fight night the better boxer will win and that's vitali. Vitali is worldclass and the difference in ability between these two is light years apart in favour of Vitali.
