    unless he had already multi millions of dollars, then he isnt rich.
    "rich" is a broad general term.
    no one fights for fun because they dont need the money

    That's nearly the exact view I have of Delboy.

    He will fight anybody, including the top HWs. He's an ass, and while not an excuse so are other fighters. He's clearly above journeyman status - more like fringe contender.

    Chisora isn't one of the better talents in the division, but at least he's down to fight anyone. I'd still like to see a fight between him and Wladimir if he can get past Boystov.

    Vlad would knock Chisora out, no doubt about it. Vitali beat Chisora with only one arm. He would have knocked Chisora out if he had both his arms. Vitali won every round, even with only one arm.

    I like him. Lacks the necessary power but I like his style.

    You're right. He's the equivalent of boring Journeyman posters on here.

    am i deluded brittard? No, i didnt score it for helenius. Helenius was too inactiue and let chip come inside and outwork him with slaps. the result show us typical knee jerk reaction when bookies favourite fighter had bad night and looked bad and won only because corrupted judges. Ppl tend to over react after **** like that and exxagerate things afterwards because they feel betrayed and/or feel for the underdog who got rokbed. The fight was interesting and fairly competive!

    divs on here stating boxers earn the right to avoid challenges. that's the gash attitude that hurts boxing. fair play to chis, limited boxer, huge heart, never ducks a challenge.

    :deal:deal:good

    He might be a dick and everything but he is not afraid a challenge like some other pretenders out there. He comes to fight, that's for sure.

    Good fighter, has zero fear of anyone or anything, never takes a round off, slapped and spat at the Klits, he's brilliant for boxing.

    Another UK warrior like Froch willing to take on all comers.

    To many fighters protecting there record and cherry picking fighters, you should want to be the best and fight the best. Is that not the reason you become a boxer in the first place ?

    Chisora top 10 HW for me and will prove it over next few years, if he stays focused and keeps coming into the ring in shape he will win a portion of the title after K2 have finally done the sport a favour and retired.
