    At this stage in his career he is a gatekeeper. He is no fringe contender. He was 8 years ago a contender. Now he is a name the real contender want on thief resume to say I to beat Chisaro. Cause if you can’t beat him you have no business As a contender for any of the belts.

    FACTUALLY INCORRECT

    Ranked #12 by the WBC
    Ranked #10 by the WBA
    Ranked #10 by the IBF
    Ranked #8 by the WBO
    Ranked #9 by Boxrec

    Chisora is still a fringe contender by all measures.

    Those aren’t facts. Those are opinion of the corrupt organization. You know why Usyk pick him? If Usyk beats him it is a statement by Usyk saying I beling at heavy weight. I beat the same guy other big names have. He is using Chisora as a stepping stone into the heavyweight. Beat his as and he passes the gate onto bigger fight.

    That is what makes him a gatekeeper.

    Boxrec is a corrupt organization? Seems to me they provide an awesome service for free. And mathematically based ratings.

    And you don't get that they all agree? That would negate any idea of corruption. It is dodgy when one organization rates someone who is not on anyone's radar, not when they all agree with remarkable consistency.

    Fringe contender. FACT:

    Ranked #12 by the WBC
    Ranked #10 by the WBA
    Ranked #10 by the IBF
    Ranked #8 by the WBO
    Ranked #9 by Boxrec

    you haven’t disputed anything that he isn’t a gatekeeper. Ranking don’t mean crap. What has he done that says otherwise. Winning intercontinental belt that he loses then the guy that beats him go in to fight for the real tittles.

    Yes, they do. If you invent your own metrics in your mind, then there is nothing that I can do about it, but as for the facts of how the entire rest of the world sees it:


    Ranked #12 by the WBC
    Ranked #10 by the WBA
    Ranked #10 by the IBF
    Ranked #8 by the WBO
    Ranked #9 by Boxrec

    Again, those prove corruption because there is no agreement. But the agreed upon reality between all ratings organizations and neutral boxrec is:

    Ranked #12 by the WBC
    Ranked #10 by the WBA
    Ranked #10 by the IBF
    Ranked #8 by the WBO
    Ranked #9 by Boxrec

    FRINGE CONTENDER
