Look at their social media following?

Chisora - 235,000 twitter followers.
Parker - 100,000
Taylor - 70,000
Prograis - 10,000

335k vs 80k?

And you wonder why the PAYING PUBLIC are more interested in the "bum" heavyweights?
Nobody said it was Germany. Nobody said Chisora didn’t have more twitter followers, nobody said the PAYING PUBLIC are not interested in the “bum” heavyweights.
But not interested enough to make the Chisora v Parker fight a viable ppv without Prograis v Taylor on the card it seems.
I couldn’t give a rats ass about which fight tops the bill. All I’m saying is Chisora is not a ppv Fighter and when he went on his rant, he shouldn’t have been so disrespectful to fighters that are better Boxers than him and have achieved more than him.
If you want to get taken in by this popularity hype that Matchroom and Sky have hoodwinked you with, crack on.
