Dereck Chisora ranting at Press Conference

[Fenster]

What a bunch of miserable fuddy duddies. He was brilliant To see Eddie, Adam and Kalle squirming, lost for words and the embarrassed smile on David Haye's boat was great.

I felt a bit embarrassed for Prograis and Taylor but the fighters at the front were cracking up.

Chisora is right too, his fight with Parker is THE main event as far as sales go (the actual fans who buy tickets and PPV). Nobody outside boxing nerds have any idea who Prograis and Taylor are.

[Master]

Got to watch this now if it has primo fired up.

Chisora is so washed up and still gets so many opportunities because he has his sky contacts who have to make these ppv fights to pay for them subsidising spoilt premiership footballers.

This gives Chisora a deluded self entitlement and worth where he thinks he is better than he really is. The joker must be believing his own hype.

Josh has more talent in his little finger than Chisora has ever had.

Prograis and Taylor. True. Never heard of em

I remember when you knew your boxing, what happened?

Josh Taylor has fought on channel 5 numerous times and beat up Ohara Davies which was an exceptional performance.

The whole thing sounds like a publicity stunt, no way Chisora did not know who the main event was. If he is really has an issue then he should take it up with his manager, David Haye.

uh , it was probably his manager that put him up to it.

Eddie should take up his threat and get him off the bill. Now that would be funny.

Just losing interest I guess. Same with football. No subscription sports channels any more and rarely do a ppv and stopped buying the Ring maybe 12 years ago....

Josh was on channel 5, free. Should watch those at least. He is a world class boxer and very talented.

You really must not care because this is a big fight. And the weight class has been on fire lately. The best has been fighting the best. This is honestly one of the biggest fights that could be made (to real fans at least).

Exactly. You're not alone either, you can count on one hand the amount of people on this site that ever comment on fighters like this.

Like this ..do you mean outsiders? Undefeated champs who are particularly fond of destroying the midsection unifying in what was until recently the end all and be all of tourneys. Best v Best. Hey if fans don't want to enjoy something new thats on them.

If self-proclaimed "hardcore" fans actually purchased boxing tickets, PPV, subscriptions or simply tuned in to watch, instead of stealing and moaning about being "ripped off," they'd get every fight they ever demand.

This thread is about a veteran boxer pressuring promoters and TV networks for a "fair" shake, based on facts and evidence. Who has got all the shit? The big mouth "slave" boxer who should know his place.

Well, I have to admit that Chisora's ranting has gained the whole card a lot more attention on the mainstream press (and this forum) than it would have ordinarily got !

He always does something like this before a fight ..... and I can just see him high-fiving Prograis and Taylor backstage afterwards

'Nice one, Dereck', 'great presser, mate'

Jack Kearns would have been proud of that one

When you say “fair shake” do you not think he’s getting one for the level of fighter he is?
I’d be intrigued to know how much you think he’s worth.
Or is he “worth more” just because he throws the odd table around , spits at World champions and tells everybody to fuck off now and again!
When does Boxing talent come into it?

You should see my current cable bill. Where's the slave boxer bit come in. Nothing but respect for a pro demanding what he feels he's worth but there are avenues and it's literally in his hands in the ring to make a case, fight per fight. Rather than acting part of a bitter ufc style kook show and sharting all over fellow professionals or promotions once again providing an opportunity v top heavies.
