When Chisora fought Tyson Fury the first time, it was billed as The Big Brawl To Settle It All.

Why is there a rematch? It was all settled the first time?

Chisora's one a few and claimed he was fat at the time. Fury also claims he was fat and can beat him better. No real need to fight again and the media don't seem that interested. They were mooting for a stadium at first which is laughable. Rather see Chisora vs Povetkin and Fury vs Pulev or Thompson

Both these are irrelevant. The big brawl already settled it all.

I think it'll be an interesting contest, regardless of old ground already having been covered.

After all the drama and time wasted on Haye, Fury seemed to of lost some interest or love in the boxing game, and it makes me wonder (to a point) how all that disappointment and inactivity will play against an old foe like Chisora who seems more determined than he has been in a long time.

My money is still on Tyson, but I will never forget how it shocked me when he said (to the effect) that "My cousin Hughie fights for the love of boxing, I fight for the money now," after Haye pulled out for the second time in their contest. I dont know if that was just anger and disappointment talking, but it certainly made me think what is Fury's emotional/mental state or drive in boxing anymore.

I see Tyson's father in law nearly every day at work - he's a sound fellow. I'll ask him how Tyson is getting on, his head was bound to be all over after the Haye let downs.

Fury fights are always exciting and at the end of the day this is a rare thing two ranked heavies fighting each other and both are better boxers and fitter than they were last time so I am looking forward to it.

Yup. Good shout. So what if they boxed before. Its a great match with two fighters at a crucial point in their careers. Bring it on and more like it imo

Undercard looks brilliant as well, even if the main event goes to pot, the rest of the card is easily value for money, lot of good fights on there.

I think Chisora is right though, he was in terrible shape for that fight.

Why have you started a thread on it, dosser?

I demand answers. Why have a rematch when the big brawl already settled it all. That's what it was billed as, and it was blatant false advertising.

No excuse though. It's not like it was anybody else's fault that he came in in poor shape.

Nothing wrong with the fight, but the four months of build up with the extraordinary, astonishing, brutal, hilarious, excruciating, unmissable head to heads and press conferences is unnecessary.

But the big brawl settled it all. The first fight promised us that it was settled. All of it.

its totally necesary to shift tickets though

I don't think you guys understand the problem.

In the second fight, there is nothing to settle. Nothing.

The Big Brawl has already Settled It All.

Is it though? How many right minded people stump up for a Warren show more than a week before the event? Endless obscurely broadcast clips of Fury and Chisora making snide comments at each other, making faux macho gestures and unending staring contests is not going to have a huge impact over 2 months before the fight actually happens.

This is a rare occasion where I'm actually looking forward to the under-card more than the main event!

+1 Undercard looking top

BJS v Blandamura European Title
Smith v Mansouri British Title
Mathews v Flanagan British Title
Sykes v Walsh British Title

If all these fights go ahead could be a late one.

Everything has been settled. This fight is:

"The normal sized brawl for no particular reason and especially not for purposes of settling."

The title for this fight from Fwank should be

"The Big One, which is nowhere near as big as I'm making out, this is the best I could do to rival Froch Groves 2, at least I've given you a good under-card"

I think it's catchy. Better than Christmas Cracker anyway!

It's exactly what Froch and Groves have been doing and everyone's lapped that up, at least Fury's unpredictable and comes out with some good one liners.
