Ditto, I completely agree. The whole thing smacked of nerves and as Klitschko stated when interviewed, Chisora did appear to take a bit of a jump back before he was even held back.

Hasn't Del Boy worn that British face thing before?
I think it looks good. In an age where every prick wants to seemingly disown his heritage and create a frankly embarrassing two bob plastic paddy or Celtic background I think it's great to see a chap proud of his Britishness. Effing game on.
Come on Del Boy, lay the big pudendum out!!!

There are some fighters oft-discussed on this forum who would be totally slated for this. Bellew offered out cleverly and there was uproar. Frankie gavin memtions money, uproar. De gale calls groves ugly, uproar.
Chisora the woman beater takes a sneaky, unexpected, gutless cheap shot at a great champion and your moist.
Perhaps if vitali was British there would be less support for the classless hood rat. Sure, 'del boy' represents a part of Britain, but it's not a good part.

Let's see how Del Boy does tonight, before calling him a "bully and a coward". It was a cheap shot all right, but in his defence, I'd say Vitali has a highly slappable face, and obviously had it coming

You might say Vitali is a bit of a bully himself - he's generally seen enjoying himself, taking his time and beating the holy crap out of over matched opponents - when some one last got the better of him, he quit on his stool.

Well he is a convicted woman beater and an opponent biter so the "bully and a coward" moniker already fits.
Chisora is a disgraceful frightened coward and a scumbag.
Headlines all over the shop, making boxing like a right pudendum once again!
Sad to see many lapping it up and supporting/excusing it. Wonder what their reaction would be if Vitali was the Brit?
And people wonder why mainstream advertisers wont touch the sport.

Yah, it's called personality & ain't it a bitch that some people's actions will provoke a "Awww" whilst exactly the same actions taken by others results in a burst of outrage.
Nigel Benn clocking someone whilst down = "Ferocious & brave warrior Nigel Benn etc"
Audley Harrison doing same = "Hang this cowardly reptile!"
I'm with Kevo. Fvck the old lady response the Klits bring out in some people, & fvck people for complaining about everyone not being held to the same standard when they are actually doing the same thing & excusing fighter A's behaviour yet getting on their high horse about fighter B.
PS: "Great champion" = admitted steroid cheat (sent home in disgrace from the Olympics, was it?) who has beaten precisely one foe of note (Mr Sanders) who was himself a semi-retired fat golfer & who has regularly indulged in "classless" bullying behaviour both inside & outside the ring.
See how easy it is to spin stuff based on getting huffy & appointing oneself a moral crusader? Or does Vit get a pass 'cos he wears a nice suit & knows what to say at a press conference?

I think age will catch up with Vitali tonight. The last time he boxed a man in his 20s who was in shape was Chris Byrd back in 2000! He's been fighting too many fatties too long, and I think the youth, fearlessness and pace of Chisora will be too much for him.

interesting that adam booth reckons the slap will ruin his chances (bbc) and david haye reckons it will give him a better chance (the sun). I reckon either way del boy is unlikely to win but will give it everything, and make a very rare thing- an exciting klitchco fight!!!

VKlitschko-Chisora fight to screen in Times Sq.
By Michael Woods
Times Square is a sanitized shell of what it used to be, but that area could be in for a flashback Saturday, because we could see an outbreak of violence. No, I don't have an advance notice of a wilding session by gangbangers during initiation or anything; rather, EPIX will show the Vitali Klitschko-Dereck Chisora heavyweight title fight, which takes place in Munich, on a JumboTron, on Broadway between 44th and 45th Streets. That showing kicks off at 4:30 PM ET.
Chisora (241.18 pounds) is a 15-2 Brit who could quite possibly be in over his head against the robotically talented Vitali (243.6 pounds), one of the most focused athletes the world has known. His concentration is epic, but we may well see it interrupted, because Chisora infuriated Vitali when he slapped him during the pose-off after the two weighed in Friday in Munich.
Chisora smacked him with his right hand, leaving a mark, and Klitschko (age 40; 43-2 record, with 40 KOs) had to be restrained from going at him then and there.
Klitschko, the WBC heavyweight champ, is risk-averse, like his little bro Wladimir, who owns the WBA, IBF and WBO belts. This Chisora affront might change his MO, make him fight like the scrap is something more than an ultra-physical chess match. We can hope...
I haven't yet been in Times Square when EPIX does this, but as a fight fan who wants to grow the sport, I love love love the JumboTron move. EPIX is a Viacom creation, and Viacom owns the 'Tron, so that's how this has come to fruition

If nobody likes to see a cheap shot, then no one would have liked Floyd 'Money' Mayweather 'knocking' Ortiz out.
Personally, if you want to put a professional boxer off his game, make him angry, that is what Del Boy did.
Whether it will work, I can't call it. Does Chisora have a chance, yes, of course he does. A much bigger one than David Haye ever had. But he is going to need something very special to do it. Here's hoping. Should be one hell of a scrap anyway.

Vitali is going to slap the taste right out of his mouth. Chisora couldn't beat Fury, he has no hope of being Klitschko. Onward to one of the greatest beatings of 2012.

I mean, Vitali has never been able to punch his bodyweight, so it wasn't like he was going to blast Chisora clean out the ring in thirty seconds. It was always likely to be a long drawn-out shellacking with Del Boy slowly whittled away by the giant's arm punches, so what exactly are you on about with the "He's only making it worse"-type comments? How exactly could he make it any worse?
I thought Adamek was about to drop to his knees & suck Big Klit off at one point, but he didn't exactly do him the world of good, did it?
Plus, there's something of the nasty bully about Vit (remember the shit he pulled after Wladdy got splattered by Sanders? Or when he took Peter's belt away & held it up in the air so the Nigerian couldn't reach it (deserved a good solid smack in the nads, for that imo))?
The disparity between how different people see the Klits astonish me, sometimes.
Agree with this and I was surprised when I read the Times just now and Ron Lewis took the 'he's only made it worse for himself' line.
Incidentally an article about a world heavyweight title challenge from a Brit has played second fiddle to a giant spread about Paralympics. Cool move, Times.
