Great Fight! Would have been nice to see a draw but of course they will give it to the house promoted fighter in a close one. Thank you ATBF!! Best site ever!!
i felt Chisora pulled it out
what a fight
ooo… man,pure war !!
Fight of the night.
One of the best heavyweight fights in years, “3 stars”
Was a good fight but certainly seemed much better live (on my tv, i mean) than it was. It never got going until the fifth round.
This fight is a bit overrated to me…
That really was a great brawl, the table-throwing festival beforehand was in good taste!
Chisora lance une table à Whyte. Après le combat, tout le monde est en bon terme. Charlo devrait prendre exemple sur Whyte.
Comme Joshua-Klit. Je suis bien d’accccord avec le bon esprit sportif, mais pour 2 gars qui allaient supposément se casser la gueule, il y avait de la poignée de main et sourires un peu trop lol
