I had Vitali winning 8-3-1, but he did not look himself. As such, I think he should think about retirement.
He ran a lot and clinched a lot. When Chisora came in with the jab he looked good... dunno why he stopped throwing it.
vitalis' feet are gone. today you could really see that he got way slower. wladimir would finish chisora in the first 8 rounds, he would not run, but press chisora and knock him out. vitali should not fight haye, because i really think that haye would win a clear decision against him right now. Vitali you had a great career, but now it's time to call it day
When you deal with a pressure fighter like Chisora you are going to get tired no matter who you are. Should Fury and Helenius retire too - because they sure as hell didn't look much better than Vitali. I don't think people realize how difficult it is to dominate Chisora. He has a steel chin and is constantly coming forward. People want Vitali to take on a tough challenger and when he actually does this and struggles, people think Vitali has declined tremendously. Well, why would it be a tough challenge if you don't actually struggle?! Every other HW in the world would have struggled with Chisora.
Chisora just exposed flaws that have always been clear in Vitali. Plod forward as Chisora sometimes did and Vitali will look great. Vary your attack up, give Vitali movement and Vitali will look poor. This was a 'decent' fighter making a 'good' fighter go through a tough bout. Vitali on his best day wouldn't annihilate Chisora because he isn't, nor ever has been, great.
Yep, Vitali should retire. I think he's delusional about his current abilities. Maybe he'll study this fight, and see the reality of things. After Foreman & B-Hop, it's easy to lose perspective, but Ali was only 38 when he lost to Spinks, and retired by 40. (& several years too late.)
chisora a solid young big heavyweight vitali aging 40 year old its nice to expose things most people know but simply cant execute , its exposing and making good on your chances while in the ring without using the 12 round distance as a measure of success while he looked better than most, still lost 9-3
He is definately on he slide, I dont think hw he canot be at 40. If I wa Haye I would be taking some serious confidence away from tonights fight.
I had him winning 9-3 but he should give it up, he can not fight a fast puncher. He is 40 and starting to really show some slowness and lack of speed and power, he uses his size well but I think he should go out on top at 40...Chisoria is a classless Animal, who should be shot but he is dumb enough to keep on and I got to give him credit as a top 10 contender ...he needs to fight a puncher so i can see him KO'd..the natural is him and Haye as bad of a **** talker as Haye was he still had more class....I think a Haye/Chisoria fight is a natural and Vitali should give it up and let his younger brother give the winner a shot
