Round-by-Round: Dillian Whyte vs. Dereck Chisora II - 22 December 2018

[gilgamesh]

Strong round for Chisora in the 3rd. He was pressing the action the whole round, and attacking aggressively throughout. Good bodyshots.

2-1 Whyte

[KiwiRider]

This is real beef , not tofu.

[Rob3_142]

Can anyone help with a link?

Ta!

[Thomastearns]

Whyte 2-1 and seems determined to pace himself. Not surprising after dangerously running low against Parker late on

[gilgamesh]

4th was the closest round so far. I think I'd favor Chisora slightly. Can't imagine they'll be able to keep fighting at this kinda pace for 12 rounds. Really fast pace for heavies.

2-2 even

Great scrap again

RD 1: 10-9 Whyte
RD 2: 10-9 Whyte (Jab controlling distance)
RD 3: 10-9 Chisora (Closing distance and pressed the action)
RD 4: 10-9 Chisora (Close round chisora on activity and body shots)

[gilgamesh]

To my eyes at least Chisora has really sucked Whyte into his kinda fight since the 3rd, and has won the last 3 in a row.

3-2 Chisora

[Ruthless-RKO]

4-1 War!!

RD 5: 10-9 Chisora (More effective punching and body shots seem to be taking some starch out of whyte)

[Neil Gee]

Chisora looks like he wants this more.

[SAPFO]

Did anybody hear AJ then? “We’re in the 2nd half of the fight” round 6

[KiwiRider]

Come on Del!

Easy! Easy! Inte em!

[Thomastearns]

3-2 Chisora dangerous game that Whyte's playing. Surely Chisora will slow soon?

RD 6: 10-9 Chisora (Whyte not doing enough...Chisora imposing his will)

[gilgamesh]

Another one for Chisora. He's pushing the pace much harder than Whyte is so he may be the one to tire here, but Whyte damn sure better hope he does because he's getting into dangerous territory on the scorecards now having lost 4 rounds in a row.

4-2 Chisora

[skanksta]

Draw is in to around 10/1 - great fight

[lowenan]

3-3 in rounds so far, good fight.

[gilgamesh]

Chisora looking as good as I've ever seen him look here. Looks like there's some truth to his comment that this was his best ever training camp. He's fighting really well.

5-2 Chisora

[Enlightened-One]

67-66 to Chisora, but ‘Del Boy’ faded during the seventh.

[Neil Gee]

I've got Del Boy 2 up

[Enlightened-One]

76-75 to Whyte. Dillian has the winning momentum.

RD 8: 10-8 Whyte (Way more effective...not sure about penalty really. good exchange at end of round)

[gilgamesh]

10-8 round for Whyte there with a point deduction. Point deduction definitely seemed unnecessary, both have landed several borderline low blows, but nothing that would warrant a deduction I don't think. Shame for Chisora there, Whyte definitely needed the extra point the way this has been going.

76-75 Chisora
